Making the career change from research to data science, one step at a time.
I guess I am due an #introduction.
Hello folks,
I am Bevan Stanely. I am finishing my master's from #iisc #india. For my #research thesis, I developed a computational model for a social bacteria #myxo.
I am preparing for a career change to #datascience. The technical stuff in #dataengineering is also quite interesting.
I like it here at #mastadon. It is much more sociable to my comfort. I am looking forward to smaller but more fulfilling networks. I have a lot of interests, so not gonna bore you with a list.
Cheers to new meaningful connections!!
In all the hoopla about artificial intelligence having answers to all our questions, people forget that asking the right questions has always been the hardest part.
Y'know what would be really nice? If those websites which give you a popup the moment you land on their page, got a report on how many users immediately closed the tab rather than interact with the popup. Especially if that number was a high percentage of all visitors. I'm doing my part.
I don’t know understand the attraction of being able to talk to computers using breezy casual conversational language; I’ve been telling these little digital bastards what to do for decades using extremely precise formalised language and they still get it wrong
I spent a good part of this year investigating Google's ad business. Today we published a story about trying to crack open its black box ad network.
Unlike its competitors, Google conceals nearly all publishers it works with and where billions of ad dollars flow. We found that Google's vast ad network contains manga piracy, porn, fraud and disinformation.

Aaron Swartz would have been 36 today.
Aaron committed suicide after being sentenced to 35 years in prison by US authorities for transferring and sharing scientific articles from JSTOR.

Okay, this is a test comment to check whether it comes under my blog. Don't panic!

Last week at the Observable Insight 2022 conference, I gave one of my favorite talks to date laying out some key principles (read: life lessons learned) for making the happiest notebooks on Earth: https://www.apreshill.com/talk/2022-happiest-nb/
The video of the talk is now up on YouTube, and of course HTML slides are linked 
You can see all resources from the conference in this Observable notebook collection: https://observablehq.com/collection/@observablehq/observable-insight-2022
