I saw someone subtooting (I guess that’s a thing), who I assume to be Chanda, for talking about her horrible experience here on twitter. So I’ll subtoot them here.
Maybe worry about her being called the N word and the like rather than her talking about it on twitter?
Reminds me of google where I’d be told “you should resolve internally” why did you go to twitter?
So you’re more invested in the image rather than the actual shit that went down?
First toot! A quick #introduction:
Hi all, I'm Abhay, a former #physics #academic who is now exploring the #DataScience world. I'm curious about all things #DataAnalytics and #DataViz
Hobbies include #gaming, #hiking, and #photography. I'm also generally interested in all things #SciFI #art #machineLearning #coding #travel #science
I don't know how much or what I'll be posting, but I'm already excited to see more of the cool things people are doing here!
Did you know that if you capitalize each word in a multi-word hashtag, #ScreenReaders can read them as words, but if you leave them lowercase, they can't? Well, now you know! So, for #accessibility, please capitalize words when there's more than one in a hashtag.
Now that I am here and enjoying much more this place it is time for a proper #introduction 👋
I am a plant disease epidemiologist based in Brazil. I use quantitative methods and tools to quantify, describe, model and predict epidemics. I am a heavy user of #rstats. I co-founded Open Plant Pathology together with @adamhsparks. Currently, I am writing a book on epidemiology using #QuartoPub.
Glad to connect with you all!
As someone who lived through the "eternal september" when AOL opened the doors to usenet, I'm seeing some of the same dynamics play out here of the folks who were here getting angry at all the new entrants, mainly for breaking norms or criticizing decisions that felt settled.
My one recommendation: recognize that new people also have things to add and different perspectives can be useful.
Norms change. It's good to explain why decisions were made, but not to scold.
Hi ! 👋 I'm Tiphaine, and I'm an assistant professor at Telecom Paris, in a team that focuses on digital technologies and society. In terms of research, I'm very interested in studying "artificial intelligence" through both its social and technical tenets. I tweet/toot irregularly, but try to share interesting, or fun (or both) bits of my day-to-day professional life.
Going to throw out a few more #hashtags for things that I like to expedite the connection here.
#academia #ExploratoryModeling #ScenarioDiscovery #SensitivityAnalysis #WaterResources #DMDU #Uncertainty #GenerativeArt #DataViz #Cornell #ClimateScience #Fractals #Chaos
Hello #rstats users. I work on things #timeseries #AnomalyDetection #RPackages #visualisation #ggplot2 #python #datascience #Astronomy among other things. Hoping to connect with the @rstats community here.
24 civil society organizations sign open letter to pressure the German government implementing a #ban on #AI #biometrics on an European level https://algorithmwatch.org/de/offener-brief-biometrische-ueberwachung-in-der-ki-verordnung-umsetzen/ (in German)
Do it again😃.
I post, therefore I am..
I am Vukosi Marivate, Chair of #DataScience at University of Pretoria, South Africa. Hold PhD CS from Rutgers University, BSC & MSc EE from Wits University.

#Introduction #BlackMastodon #AfricanNLP #AfricanMachineLearning
My name is Ian, I'm Head of Data Science at Credo AI, an #ai governance company. I have a background in cognitive neuroscience where I focused on cumulative, #openscience.
I'm focused on de-risking AI and connecting it to human flourishing. I'm hopeful that governance and new tools can help, but only as part of a vast ecosystem of different approaches needed to usher in the future we all hope for.
I'm excited for exploring what Mastadon has to offer and connecting with you all!
I lead personalization at Literati, a startup in the children's books space. I pretty much only use Twitter to follow your discussions about ML and ethics and to occasionally tweet about track or #Tolkien. Hence, following y'all to Mastodon seems only natural! I hope to participate more actively over here.
My family and I live in LA, where my wife works as a screenwriter. Someday, I'd like to get healthy and run a marathon again and to have a second career as a philosopher.
I feel like @shanselman is the MVP of Mastodon right now.
Thanks for boosting so many users and all types of posts. It's totally changed it from feeling empty and "What do I do now?" to something vibrant and busy.
