I'm a bit of an eclectic mess πŸ™‚ I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

Just moved to neuromatch.social, so here it goes (again), :

Hi everyone, I'm a last year undergrad in & at McGill. I'm doing research in the Baillet Lab at The Neuro (MNI), focusing on whole-brain dynamical models of coupled neural masses calibrated to data (more details @ https://neurolife77.github.io/ if anyone is curious).

I am also the VP of the committee at PharmaHacks, a hackathon that blends & with a focus on .

------------------------ Bonus ------------------------

Since I have the space to put it in the same post now, thanks to the freedom in post length from this new server, here's a bonus:

I regularly share links to preprints that catch my attention and tag them with:

I started doing this because I thought that the arxiv bots on mastodon were not super efficient, but after doing it for about a month I'd say it's also a good way to keep some form of history of my nightly exploration of the literature in my fields of interest. I usually share stuff about , , , , , etc.

Disclaimer: I usually only read the abstract or skim through them at the time of posting.
Disclaimer 2: I am definitely not consistent.

Without a lab, access to research libraries/university facilities, entomologist Charles Henry Turner (1867–1923) died with a personal library of 1,000+ books, having published 50+ scientific papers; he revolutionized our knowledge of ants (Earth’s most abundant animal); he was 1st to prove insects can hear& distinguish pitch, alsi 1st scientist to achieve Pavlovian bug conditioning, training moths to beat their wings when he whistled h/t @mariapopova

I was forgetting to mention, I'll go to @pycon for the first time this year (April 19-27). πŸ€“πŸ

I'll give a talk: ⭐ Introducción a @FastAPI ⭐

Come and practice your Spanish with me. Or just come and say hi, I'm shy. πŸ˜…

Y si hablas español, chévere, guay, copado, buenazo! 😎

As a kid, I’d eat yeast and sit in the oven.

That’s just how I was raised.

Whoa, almost stepped on a cladonia city today - and a new species for me I believe, Cladonia verticillata. The pixies really went crazy when they built this one, I counted 5 stories in some of the buildings!

Most of my embroidery is intuitive in that I pick colors and sometimes a stitch and then I just let the threads talk to each other. If anyone speaks β€œthread,” I’d love a translation cuz these had something to say.

The experience of deja vu occurs when someone in the future who's reading your biography loses their place, and flips back a few pages to reread them.
