first post. (week 15 of 2024)

The mandatory hello world post!

So, I am not sure what this blog is going to be about, but I wanted to try and get back into blogging because I have Thoughts and would like to share them in some form.

I spend a lot of my time thinking about two things: Academia and Climbing. I play the ukulele and bass ukulele, and I love learning about R and all the awesome things you can do with it. I am a word nerd, but my research interests stop as soon as words get combined into bigger things like sentences. Side interests: the Linux/open-source ecosystem, Pokemon, personal knowledge management systems, productivity hacks and workflows. Ideas from network science and complexity theory also fascinate me.

I guess you can expect some array of the above topics in future posts.

Random: I learned a few weeks ago that Post Malone got his rapper stage name from an online rap name generator. My rapper name is SeaEss.
