ianhopkinson, 1 year ago to python #introduction A long time ago I was an academic - working in #SoftCondensedMatter #BiologicalPhysics After a spell as an industrial research scientist at #unilever I became a #DataScientist (by sleight of hand). I do a lot of things with #Python. I have a blog which these days is mainly #BookReviews including a fair amount of #histsci. I live in #Chester with Dr Mrs H, two #cats and a 11 year old son. Possibly addicted to #Fortnite and #HorizonForbiddenWest. https://www.ianhopkinson.org.uk
