Hello, Bluesky!
Excited to meet and reconnect with folks in Atlanta this week at #SC24.
Here's to another year of learning more about our biggest computers and the people who make them super. 🚀

Waiting to board my plane after another productive @escience. First in-person conference since 2019 in the books!
...and I finally met my @ORNLComputing team in-person! While nobody was as tall or short as expected, everyone was just as great as advertised.

I had the pleasure of co-teaching (with instructors from @argonne) the FIRST-EVER Data4All workshop to high school students on Chicago's south side.
In just *5 DAYS* we explored everything from music to cholera to COVID-19.

Last week I sat down with @alieward to discuss research, patents, product development, and the @NightWareDevice on @CBSInnovationTV.

The best application I've read for the @CDAC_UChicago summer research lab:
"My desire to fight against evil firstly emerged when my favorite bicycle was stolen".
Nothing quite like a #DataScience revenge arc.

Apparently my @IEEEorg account was hacked and someone ordered an "Introduction to Penetration Testing" course using my credit card?
The irony isn't lost on me, hacker person.

Pretty much all of my emails the day after final grades are published:
"Dear Tyler,
I hope you are well. LOVED the class! You are a big stupid idiot. An A-? For real? Will you please be a non-idiot for just 5 seconds and round up my grade?
Warm Regards,
Student

HOW DO TEACHERS/PROFESSORS WRITE TESTS?
My class has a midterm next week and I have no idea if these problems take 3 hours. Or 14 hours.
And like how many points should I make the different parts? Do I base it on 'importance of concept' or 'hardness of problem'?
AHHHHHH.

Today in a live coding example (they code verbally, I type in the editor), my students somehow could recite pi to far more places than reasonable machine precision.

Thoughts from Day 1 of teaching C for @UChicagoCS:
1. Zoom is hard.
2. 31 students have now written, compiled, and run their first-ever C program and it was heartwarming.
3. Zoom is hard.
