Hi everyone! I’m a biology professor, amateur coder and statistician by day. In my off time I’m a science enthusiast, dog lover and tabletop gamer, including D&D. If I didn’t work from home so frequently, I’d almost never feel the need to socialize in person. 😝 #introductions
Welcome to the fediverse :)
It's W E I R D
@Nurowyn Welcome!
@Nurowyn Willkommen!
I think you're in the right place:
'we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
'How do you know I'm mad?' said Nurowyn.
'You must be,' said the Wiccat, 'or you wouldn't have come here.'
@Nurowyn Welcome! I’m a graphic designer, so I’m with you on the amateur coding (but probably not the same kind), but also a huge science enthusiast among other things!
Since you’re in biology, I wanna ask, where do you stand on plant intelligence? (or is that too loaded of a question) it’s one of my favorite topics to read about 😍
@milo Hi, and thanks! I’ve never worked with plants, so it’s a bit outside my expertise. That being said, plant communication and biosemiotics are generating a lot more interest than they used to!
@Nurowyn omg I pulled a “you do [very broad field] so you must know [very specific thing]” 😂 sorry!! What kind of science makes you nerd out most?
@milo No worries at all! I field all sorts of cool questions like that one in non-majors bio, my favorite course. Not gonna lie, I can’t really pick between genetics and evolution as my favorites. I regularly check out various social media outlets for science news, which I tell myself is to keep my classes current. 😉
@Nurowyn Hello, welcome! :) What languages do you code in?
(We're a website that does articles abour random creative geek stuff.)
@ExilianOfficial Hi there! I mostly stick with python, R and bash scripting, since that’s the standard for bioinformatics. I regularly have to remind myself that frankencoding is legit coding, though. 😆
@Nurowyn Welcome to the #fediverse!
@Nurowyn Welcome!
@Nurowyn Hello. I'm just a metalhead who codes for a living, writes sci-fi on his lunch breaks, and puts too much thought into catfolk evolution and biology, and how they might coexist with homo sapiens.
