Great trip to DC. Did the obligatory family stuff but also had our usual wonderful dinner @DasEthiopian and heard great music @bluesalley

Non-teachers don't understand that prep for each class session is the process of writing a script for a play, with build up and resolution, visuals, audience participation, no 4th wall. This is why it takes TIME.
A complete pleasure to work with @CarlaBrodley & @mapq on this paper!

As if it wasn't already bad enough that in the US there are more guns than people, but now there are bullet vending machines. In grocery stores! And they trust AI & facial recognition to be sure buyers are of legal age. Is there no end to this madness???
A chance to talk about work I’ve been doing for a very long time. An opportunity to explain why this data analysis approach is critical for understanding exactly who is and is not coming into computing.

Time to rethink how you look at degree data! Thanks to @CarlaBrodley and @mapq for the wonderful collaboration!!
