#Introduction
Most of my personality is constantly talking about #cats ❤️ I’m an obsessive reader and tend to gravitate towards #sci-fi, #LiteraryFiction, and #HistoricalFiction. I'm always open to recommendations, so do drop me a line from your fav books!

I’m a ML Engineer and worked with ML in #InfoSec and #NLP. Recently I’ve been really excited to about #privacy and #security in #ML inferences.

In my free time I make #DigitalArt though not as consistent with them. Here’s some of them:

Must say, it is a bit of a barrier to start writing here in comparison to the twittersphere. You’re wondering if you have anything worthwhile to say.

Started Twitter in 2013 while working at our mission at the OECD. It was #trade, #economics and #cooperation. Then came the disruptions, #brexit, #Trump, trade wars, #pandemic, challenges of sustainability and climate change, a real war in Ukraine etc. In the turmoil, ability to exchange with like-minded is important; looking fwd to it here.

If you feel you've been too far right or too siloed on the left to know what to do with your impulse toward the #CommonGood and would like to fix that, AND wish to change your work scene to a livelihood, consider the #coop #cooperative movement. It's a slow burn but in a useful/resilient direction in these threatening and fractured times. Jus' sayin'.

And/or the #ecovillage people could always use someone to pull weeds.

A question for those #writers participating in #NaNoWriMo (or working on a novel-length project):

What's something you love about your book so far? :ablobcatheartsqueeze:

When drafting, it's easy to get caught up in what's NOT working. But I want to hear about the little wins! So feel free to use this space to brag! 🎙️

As a wider range of folks come here - especially including execs and sales, I would humbly suggest that folks be careful how they try to sell stuff here and to whom if speaking on behalf of a cybersecurity product company. Read your server’s rules and understand what is allowed. Don’t brute force the lack of algorithm. Understand your audience, since it’s typically way more specific and community-focused than commercial social media, and they may or may not welcome it. I just blocked someone who was pitching their product in a really unsolicited and tone deaf way through comments.

I am a Prof of #Economics at University of Warwick. I am going to talk about a paper on #Brexit as a means of an #introduction. Almost on the same day of the #EUReferendum I started working on that:

"Who Voted for #Brexit? A Comprehensive District-Level Analysis"

➡️ #Openaccess doi.org/10.1093/epolic/eix012

This was a descriptive paper that makes no claims of #causality. It simply asks whether, based on where you live, we can infer whether and how one voted. In doing so we just characterise...

Friendly #Mastodon tip of the Day 2

Filters are your best friend. If you don’t want content about Elon Musk , go to Preference > Filters and make one for "Musk".

Or #Twitter. Or anything you don't want to see.

Those posts will be hidden, and filters can be time-limited. So if you just want to filter out football chat during the world cup, you can do that.

🔃Reblog and follow me for more daily tips.

Hello!

I'm Peter, and these days I write Disability Debrief to keep up with disability news in a changing world. disabilitydebrief.org/

I'm a disabled guy living in the UK, where I grew up, and came back after many years of living and working abroad.

Most recently I was in Egypt and before then Bangladesh, Brazil and a bit of Switzerland.

To bring the angel of an argent paradise into your presence, first sprinkle yourself with blessed water. Then, call out and affright the ka. Once you feel the presence of the angel of an argent paradise, focus on it until you ascend, then watch mindless TV.

British friends: when you were little, did you ever hear the terrible phrase, “In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue”? Trying to determine whether I have to specify that this is a U.S. phenomenon in something I am writing.

Hi All,

Welcome to all the Mastodon newbies like myself, and to all the old timers sorry about all the noise and disruption 🙂

The Slow Music Movement is a daily music tip blog, monthly radio show, playlist curator and record label focused on lesser known independent artists and generally laid back underground music.

Let's make Mastodon a nice place to hang out.

All the best

So, this is normally the kind of question I would ask on Twitter. Hoping it will work here too!

I'm changing my #Postcolonial Lit class to have an environmental focus this year. Recs for contained/short pieces on resource extraction or objectification of nature that we can discuss on the first day? I'm thinking maybe images would work well?

#introduction! I research and practice #accessibleDesign in virtual environments and technology as a research associate at the Royal College of Art in London. After several years working as a designer for a major sportswear company, my personal experience with disability (I'm #deaf) and inaccessible environments led me to change my focus to work on making emerging technologies deeply #inclusive and #accessible for everyone. #a11y #inclusiveDesign
