I think some punchy bullets instead of sentences for your projects would be great ! They can highlight the cool factor of each one and help skimmers such as I 💅

We've reached the final countdown: the #dataBS Conference call for speakers closes today!

You have just a few hours left to share your story about what _really_ happens in data work:

YouTube video by Certified Fresh Events Beyond the "Cold Shower" Mentality: Using Comfort for Sustainable Learning + Growth by Eyram Akabua

At the encouragement of @mosescodes.bsky.social, I'm sharing the full lightning talk I did in April!

It's also shown in the conference video I posted before, so this is just the director's cut:

We live in a modern age

We call that there a "captive audience" 😎

In which case, a softball: GitHub Codespaces is pretty neat-o

Ah yes the hard stuff, very nice 😎

I'm doing the DataTalks MLOps Zoomcamp and it's been great so far!
I keep learning new stuff that I wanna post about, but I'm also irrationally afraid that the new stuff is stuff I should already know, so I haven't said anything about it yet 😬

Your hair looks so good in this pic 😭 hope you have fun!!

I feel like it’s hard to have discussions on AI because very reasonable positions are being treated like they’re saying “all AI bad, good AI impossible.”

But we cannot have a reasonable discussion of AI without talking about who is making it and how.

A major danger of LLMs is that humans are SO predisposed to attribute knowledge to any entity that uses natural language fluently. We cannot imagine that a machine that outputs natural-seeming speech/text doesn't have cognition. Brilliantly articulated by @emilymbender.bsky.social et al. (2021).

Hallelujah 😭😭😭 now you can get into your LinkedIn!

Finally home after being in Atlanta for almost a month. Still compiling my thoughts about Render, but I learned quite a bit!

Note to self: if you start not sleeping now before RenderATL's even started, you're gonna have a bad time.

Literally took me 30 seconds!

✨ I’ve got a couple of extra General Admission tickets to @renderatl.com and I’d love to give them to folks who might not otherwise get a chance to go.

If you’re from an underrepresented group in tech and want to be in the room or know someone who should be DM me!

Remember NFTs? Sort of? Not really? The same guys who made that bullshit are now telling us auto-complete is intelligent and it has feelings

Needed that laugh 😭

"it's ~healthy~" is my cope

Yes! I keep a stash of 4 different flavors at all times. It's my "break in case of 🫠" ice cream

Better off the chest than in the brain. Release however you need to! If it's been a while since you did something "joyful and useless", it can make a big difference if you can find time (I play video games!)

Laid off lifeeee ✌🏾
Glad to see the project is still going forward!!

They really do start at 100 😅 I was in shock

the early episodes are so stressful 😭 but stick with it, it gets so good!!

Ai2 CEO Ali Farhadi talks about transparency in AI at EmTech.

How do we build AI systems that are safe, transparent, and worthy of public trust?

Today Ali explained how transparency at every stage—how we build, share, and govern AI systems—must be open by default. That’s how we earn trust.

Thanks, MIT Technology Review, for including us at #EmTechAI. 🧠

Wow what a blast from the past 😭
