Science --> Power + Future

A recent Fusion Reaction experiment at Fermilab have confirmed that we have the technology to fuse 2 elements into 1 and produce more energy than used to cause the reaction.

Like the 1830 Faraday experiment of the past, this, (very expensive) one will revolutionize energy production, possibly creating almost limitless, clean energy leading to net-0. #Fusion #Fermilab #Energy #environment #Science #Nuclear #McMaster #Canada

Listened to #Penrics #Daemon & #Beguilement by Lois #McMaster #Bujold

The first was good. Nice example of using a simple idea for a short novel.

The second started off ok, but at about the half way mark it just became a full on romance novel. I don't mind it if that is one part of the story, but not when it's the entire focus. I found myself fast-forwarding through parts at that point. And it was the most vanilla normy I'm going to have the perfect wedding shite.

Learning about the Douglas Creek States Land Reclamation, Caledonia, Ontario, 2006, from Dr. Daniel Coleman at CAPAL23.

McMaster University garrisoned the police who cracked down on the Six Nations peoples.

The South Carolina Supreme Court has found that
“the [Fetal Heart Beat] Act violates our state Constitution's prohibition against unreasonable invasions of privacy.”

Thank God.

Former #Trump administration national security adviser #McMaster says #China's president is serious about his #Taiwan threats: "Xi Jinping is preparing the Chinese people for war."

It doesn't matter if the #US is run by #Democrats or #Republicans.

It's all about maintaining US hegemony and obeying the globalist elites.
They failed in #Ukraine and now they want to try their last hope in #Τaiwan.

'Studying' || McMaster University - Hamilton, Ontario, Canada || November 2022

This was near to the end of my day at McMaster, had stopped looking at the buildings and just wandering and experiencing; a really nice campus with some really nice people.

How far would you walk to reach a shared bicycle station?

In research conducted at #McMaster University, we found that the addition of equity stations to the bike share system in #Hamilton, #Ontario, increased horizontal equity (shared bicycles became more accessible for all), but did not substantially increase vertical equity in accessibility to the system.

Students at #McMaster are fighting a climate-killing gas plant on campus. Rally this Thursday, Dec 1 at 1:00pm in front of Burke Science Building (BSB) centre of campus. Demands and details here: https://www.opirgmcmaster.org/26942-2/

In the last week I have received 4(!) emails from #McMaster telling me how step-by-step I can scab.

No mention of strike pay, bragging that you don’t pay dues in a strike..

They want us fragmented so we accept less. This is disgusting.

Hey presto, MPOW, the library at #mcmaster, has a nifty impact report out. https://publications.mcmaster.ca/catalogue/mcmaster-university/mcmaster-university-library-impact-report-2021-2022/

Excited to be in Rimini this week to teach a workshop at Alma Mater Studiorum #UNIBO.

This will be the second time I offer the Italian edition of #ExploratoryDataAnalysis in R.

The materials are available as an #OpenEducationalResource here:

Murder Bugs: A Love Story

"An immense pleasure to read ... The love of invertebrates and the complexity of human behaviour are beautifully married in this imaginative thriller ... The invertebrates are truly fantastic. The murders are clever and gruesome ... A riveting novel that is difficult to put down ... I thoroughly enjoyed it"
Marvin Gunderman, Entomology Instructor at McMaster U (retd)

Very excited to announce this title, which will be published early in 2023.

The pre-release version was very well received in the graduate courses that @BoisjolyGen@twitter.com and I teach at #McMaster and #PolytechniqueMontreal. Loaded with practical examples, it connects discrete choice analysis to the larger R ecosystem of data manipulation, analysis, and visualization, which we emphasize for exploratory data analysis pre- and post-estimation.

#intro

I am part of the Great #MastodonMigration from that other site.

I teach and do research at #McMaster University's School of Earth, Environment and Society. My areas of interest are #transportation, #accessibility, #ActiveTravel, #equity, and #policy. I have a strong interest in methods, and my longest love affair has been with #SpatialStatistics and #SpatialDataAnalysis.

I am interested in #writing, and use #Rstats with gusto, professionally and for #Rtistry and #GenerativeArt.
