(re)#Introduction: I joined Mastodon in 2017 then promptly forgot my login and rejoined in the mass Bird App exodus of 2022.

I'm #queer and #neurodivergent, #GenX, #knitting #ScienceFiction and I write about #humanRights as well. Amateur graphic artist and write poetry as often as possible. Caregiver to disabled husband.

JOURNALISM 101 RULE: If someone says it’s raining, and another person says it’s dry, it’s not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out of the fucking window and find out which is true. — Now more than ever.

#Introduction

We are a collective of #artificialintelligence researchers based at Imperial College London. We focus on autonomous agent learning and reasoning with special attention to #reinforcementlearning

We organise exciting monthly seminars and occasional research spotlights. We also run a deep RL reading group each week on Wednesdays.

Our next large event will be on the 30th of November about AlphaTensor with Alhussein Fawzi #DeepMind. Register here! eventbrite.com/o/imperial-coll

So, with a bunch of new followers, maybe it's time to do another introduction. I've seen other people do that, I think?

I'm currently an instructor (not tenure track) at a university with a sizeable (~550 undergrads) serious security program. Until recently, I was in academic leadership, overseeing our undergrad program as we revamped our first-year programming/IT curriculum, added required coursework in exploit development/reverse engineering, added a slew of new electives, and reupped our NSA Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education (NSA CAE-CDE) designation. I know *way* too much about curriculum structure.

My students usually end up doing work that's way more interesting than what I do. I do get out in the field occasionally through our "applied research" [consulting] lab, though.

Thankfully, I've just rotated back to being just regular teaching faculty again. My choice - there's a reason academic leadership usually has planned rotations. I teach assorted courses in penetration testing, application security (web/mobile/classic), and malware (both reversing and development). I also dabble in DevOps-y stuff and cloud systems.

I'll occasionally tweet.. wait..toot about other things. I started off in AI/CogSci before moving into InfoSec. I desperately miss teaching compiler construction and language theory. I do research when I have the time. Industry research, not academic research.

More fun with #GenerativeArt & #CreativeCoding - some more #WorkInProgress of my latest #JavaScript based project using the #p5js library

I've been tidying up and generally brightening the outputs of the algorithm. I have a bad habit of letting my colours/palette become quite dark & muted, so I wanted to do the complete opposite here!

I'm still going to spend more time refining the colours, but I like the generally chaotic clashes that are happening now...

Apparently, Mastodon search only picks up on #hashtags, so here's a bit more about me...

I'm a #webdeveloper from #Edinburgh, focusing primarily on building #PHP, #Wordpress and #CraftCMS websites. I also do front-end development using #HTML, #CSS and #Javascript.

I also enjoy making #3Dart using #Blender and #GenerativeArt using Javascript (see below!)

I have a #cat and a #dog, love #cooking, enjoying the #outdoors with my family and #music, #guitar & #keyboard

It is so pleasant to read through a timeline of updates from accounts I've chosen, without a sponsored or recommended post in every other slot. Feels like back when the whole social media thing was still more social than commercial, when I was still young and optimistic

#Introduction
My preferred pronouns are Xe/xem/xyr/xyrs/xemself - but I'm also okay with either the she or he set. I don't like the use of the singular they.

I'm a fluidflux adult who enjoys science fiction, AI art, computer generated art, scifi (mainly social science fiction), technology, bioethics, and other things.

When I was young I liked ex-military aircraft, which is why I chose my username @warbird on Twitter and here

Hey, if Twitter goes down I want you to know that I'll still be writing all my tweets on the whiteboard of room 426, building J12, NSW 2006

Slow mode is your friend if you’re watching the local and federated timelines.

Joining the train

Things that I'm into/may talk too much about
Always happy to learn and share what I've learned with people :)











Took a break from yesterday, and did just one Fling, a bit over 1000 words, today. But no problem! :)

Hey #WritingCommunity, thank you for your patience. As promised, here is a working masterlist of #LitMags, #SmallPress & other #Publishing venues who have pages on Mastodon and will be posting submission calls. This spreadsheet will be updated periodically, so make sure you bookmark it for future reference. :)

All handles have been added with consent from the representatives. If you are an EIC/rep of any such venue, please get in touch & I'll add you to the list.

I didn't even know this existed, but apparently NASA has an autonomous space shuttle capable of delivering payloads to orbit without the need for a crew.
