HackNTX is now only a one-day event, Saturday, December 1st! You can read more about it on our blog, but hopefully this logistical update helps with travel plans for our participants. Thanks for your support! buff.ly/2FTOdRU
Your regular reminder that machine learning isn't magic
Today in shitty machine learning startups, this company claims to predict IQ, personality, and violent tendencies by applying deep learning to facial features and bone structure. That's phrenology. You just made the ML equivalent of a racist uncle.
Food for thought
Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School! Now to sleep all weekend and start looking for jobs on Monday
Apparently Prezi is still a thing. It's also still awful.
I suppose it’s bad form to put *shrieks with laughter* in the future work section of a dissertation
True story: I first learned HTML because I had a Geocities page in the 90s and wasn't satisfied with the options in their built-in page editor.
Fine, I'll spell it out: MySpace, LiveJournal, and NeoPets were able to teach kids—all kids, yes, but, and this is very important, largely girls—how to code because the coding education happened incidentally, outside the pipelines where people are told what they can and can't do.
Dear #OCaml enthusiasts, we need your help! The 3rd OCaml MOOC will start in 3 weeks and that's probably the perfect opportunity for your friends and all your acquaintances to discover the beauty of functional programming. Please, take a minute to spread the word around you!
This is a great way to see what’s going on with the tech scene in Denton!

Coming up with pun-filled names for tools/processes is totally an academic skill, right?
Giving this class another go. Here's hoping!
Understanding pattern-matching and ADT will change the way you think about case splitting in your programs. Be careful though, you may not be able to come back to less expressive programming languages :-) Register to the #ocaml MOOC bit.ly/2ICPHNv !

Yeah, I won't miss working with academic software tools after I graduate.
It is truly amazing to work in a research field where most of what is published does not work once you try to apply it in real conditions. Not even close. I have seen this repeatedly on our projects with industry. This even concerns award and highly cited material.

Just discovered (via @steminist) that @KTLeeWrites writes books about "women in STEM fighting international crime," which I will absolutely be reading (and potentially breaking into the genre myself someday) because that is my favorite plot idea ever: ktleeauthor.com/books/
