Anyone want to hang out (at work) with me? We have a couple open Distinguished Visiting Professor positions in CS and Data Science at the Naval Academy. Check it out! usna.edu/HRO/jobinfo/DVP-Com…
I don't tweet much, but when I do, it's to post about our new tenure track position. This is a unique place that values both teaching and research, and gives you fun small sized classes to teach. I've been here 10 years, so it must be sort of good, right? cra.org/job/united-states-na…

I left my research poster on the streets of New Orleans. It was gone an hour later. Somebody is now drinking, listening to the blues, and learning about the idiosyncrasies of neural networks+topic models.

Visited the SEC today to present my research on insights from social media text. The SEC has lots of interesting language problems, ripe for NLP techniques.
