Well after 8 months off, I'm finally dusting myself off and feeling ready to re-enter the real world 😆. I'd love to hear if you are working on interesting things and think I would be a good addition! My DMs are open, best to reach me there 📭

🧐All machine learning models have blind spots. They operate as trained - not as intended. Here @qethanm makes a case for having humans involved, both before and after deployment. qethanm.cc/2020/06/03/human-…

Learning & teaching virtually is finite, but the mindsets, skills, and knowledge associated with learning and teaching is infinite. May our infinite mission outweigh any challenges of the finite moment. That's just one hope and dream for the school year. What's yours?

As our InspirED Global Fellowship Summer Institute occurs this week, we’re looking forward to calibrating our common language of design thinking with brilliant tools from @k12lab and welcoming @Datapolitan to help us be data-mindful in our inquiry and collaboration. #inspirEDNV
Numbers speak to our head. Stories speak to our hearts. When data tells a true and compelling story, we bring heart and head together in order to create action.

Texas was supposed to collect racial-profiling data. It left out most of the 'racial' part. houstonchronicle.com/news/ho…

LOL no. If you want to blame the sun belt surge on the protests, you also have to explain why DC, NY, Minnesota - where the most intense protests happened - are not seeing a surge.
Dan Crenshaw and Brian Kilmeade blame Texas coronavirus spike on #BlackLivesMatter protesters, not the state reopening businesses

The kids wanna play “programmer” like daddy so I’m gonna make them go sit and read documentation for 4 hours, curse at a text editor for 2 hours, then write a single console.log statement.

Excited to see #OpenDataWeek and broader #NYC #OpenData efforts highlighted in the WSJ (thx @katie_honan!). @NYCAnalytics and @NYCDoITT work together to deliver public datasets to all New Yorkers. Open Data Week events: open-data.nyc WSJ: wsj.com/articles/new-york-ci…
If you want to shape the direction of a 300k-employee organization and its use of #AI, look no further than this role. The work done here will echo around the world, and folkslike @postkxj and @trin_jeff make great colleagues.
New York City is getting its very first Algorithms Management and Policy Officer! We want to make sure the City uses decision-making tools fairly and effectively. The AMPO (new acronym alert!) will oversee that. Learn more about what we’re looking for: nyc.gov/ampo
