If you'd like to talk about teaching computational social science and take a look at my recent introduction level text book "Computational Thinking and Social Science" we both are at #IC2S2 @SageMethod
Replying to @PoliisiHelsinki
@HelsinkiPoliisi Olisin halunnut töistä kotiin, mutta Kruununhaka on hyvin eristetty muusta kaupungista. Kysyin kahdelta poliisilta: kiertotiestä ei ollut tietoa ja palveluystävällisyys oli tasoa "en mä voi kysyä keneltäkään."
Replying to @NitorCreations
@NitorCreations You say "It’s vital to admit that some people will never be good software developers because they don't have the required analytical mindset." As far as I recall from the infamous "Camel has two humps" controversy, scholars have NOT found a clear mindset issue.

Yes, there are skill differences and a bell curve on skills. However, I haven't really seen evidence that the skill differences relate to a magic analytical mindset. We really should not push forward this type of thinking, it is not beneficial.
Valekuvia on käytetty jo vuosia sodankäynnin ja politiikan välineenä. Mikä digissä on uutta? #digivalta

I strongly condemn the military measures Russia has started in Ukraine. Russia's acts target Ukraine, but at the same time they are an attack on the entire European security order. We feel deep compassion towards Ukraine and are seeking ways to increase our support to Ukraine.
Muistatteko kun puhuttiin 35 miljoonan #tiedeleikkaus ja niiden estämisestä syksyllä?
Yliopistojen kiinteistöyhtiöt tekivät 2020 voittoa noin 65 miljoonaa ja maksoivat voitosta veroja 13 miljoonaa.
Kai tässä joku järki on, en vain tiedä mikä.

Onko digi-yhteiskuntatietelijät hemmoteltuja lapsia? Digijättien yritykset estää riippumatonta tutkimusta ovat metodologisen kasvun paikka! #digiyhteiskuntatiede #tiede rajapinta.co/2021/09/22/byhy…
@IBMSupport Trying to install @IBMWatson and all I get is and slow download speed. Would really want to try this tool, but you are not making it easy!
As far as I can easily browse the forums, the same issue was reported in December 2020 and no-one responded: ibm.com/mysupport/s/forumsqu…

🔥#KahvitNäppikselle-podin eka jakso on julkaistu! 🔥@matnel ja @rsarvas keskustelevat teknologiasta, arvoista ja vallasta. Miksi Twitter on nopea? Tiedostavatko Kelan koodarit ideologiansa? @AaltoUniversity

Software is eating the world. It is vital to understand the ideologies driving software development and reinvent methods to understand IT system design and development from ideological perspectives. With @jhaapj, @vpalacin and @KoneenSaatio we'll make a dent in #digitalideology
The gist of our project is to bring ideologies in the forefront and expand beyond the capitalist criticism currently mainstreaming in critical computing studies. It is not only about #platformcapitalism but software is politics through other means.
On kallista olla @ElisaOyj asiakas. Jos pitää vaihtaa hyvin palvellut Saunalahden mikro-sim nano-simiksi, uuden SIM-kortin aktivointi maksaa 7 euroa. Ensi kerralla leikkelen saksilla pienemmäksi. (Kilpailijalle vaihtaminen on muuten halvempaa!)
I'll speak about some of my experiences on teaching #computationalsocialscience later today.
I'm moderating a panel discussion on teaching computational social science Monday 12-1pm EDT. Featuring 3 amazing scholars and educators: @matnel, @RochelleTerman & @JaeJaeykim2. Event is part of SICSS Festival. Register: forms.gle/mCdyY2VPZdLGjqKTA
How does #computationalsocialscience move into industry? I'll speak a bit about moving from data to business challenges to solution based on my work at @Futurice
Join the second episode of our Connected Company webinar series and dive deep into the world of social networks & AI and how to turn those into business performance. bit.ly/3cPtlHM.
On stage @matnel, @RikuJ, @TuomasSyrjanen #data #ai #socialnetworks #knowledgework

Onko maailma erilainen riippuen siitä kenen tekoäly sitä katselee? rajapinta.co/2020/02/24/onko…
Did some presenting with slides that had way too much text.
What can computer science / HCI learn from politics science (and vice-versa) when exploring and innovating around political participation? We need more trading zones. See @matnel’s #CSCW2019 paper programs.sigchi.org/CSCW/201…
