The reasons for sharing more content in Spanish here are:

  • because I am developing it with/for people who speak Spanish.
  • because it is easier for me to write it.
  • because it is a beautiful language.

It also has to do with migrating material from my role as a researcher to my website that is not otherwise available. All of this is in Spanish, and I have no intention of translating it.

I promise that following contents will be in English. 🙂

Starting to wonder if AI is like spreadsheets: for every programmer pointing out flaws and deficiencies, a double dozen people are using 'em to do something they find useful. 1/4

I teach courses at the undergraduate & graduate level. My students use LLM whether I like it or not.

So my best option was to incorporate the topic into my courses: a 1st lesson on how they work and how they are trained, with examples and discussions on the (non ethical) ways in which these models are built.

Then what is available for coding and how it can be used (in general and in our class).

I really enjoyed chatting with Richard at @sustainoss podcast about three communities that are very important to me: @rOpenSci, @RLadies_global and @thecarpentries

Very grateful for the space and the opportunity to reflect on topics that interest me a lot.

I arrive home today and a box full of books by awesome Argentinian humorist is waiting for me with a note that said: “Never stop learning and teaching”

Thank you @paocorrales and @eliocamp !!!

Hey @gvwilson I’m reading The reading mind and reaching chapter 3 there are Concepts Maps!!

By the way, the book is great. Another good idea from you about books I should read 😁.

Now we have to do an exercise, and we are asked to ask other people what they believe my unique talents, my "magic powers" are.

Does anyone want to help me answer that question? 🙂

Reading @mekkaokereke's ongoing thread about the importance of onboarding new teammates, thinking about the three different times I was sent to get an engineering onboarding program off the ground at my last job, with a budget of zero dollars and no outcomes that ever laddered up to anywhere.

@mhoye @mekkaokereke I'm old enough to ask for an onboarding process when I change jobs. 🙂

Another super frustrating thing about having depression and anxiety, is that medical professionals will forever doubt any recount of ailments they can't verify via blood samples to be of psychiatric origin.

I'm not ashamed of having mental illness, I would say I was depressed if I was depressed. It's not a problem.

But I know when I'm not depressed, it's so blatantly obvious to me that I'm not depressed, my mood is surprisingly good given my shitty health situation.

@Drmowinckels I'm sorry you have to deal with the doctors as well. As if being sick wasn't enough to deal with.

Someone is making you a cup of tea. You see them add milk before taking out the teabag. Do you (a) smile, thank them politely, and drink it anyway, (b) accidentally knock it over and say, "Oh, don't worry, I'll make a fresh one myself," or, (c) wait, what? You're joking, right? Nobody actually does that, do they? Jeez, Greg, c'mon, I know it's April Fool's, but it's also Monday fucking morning and nobody has the energy for your perverse shit right now, OK?

yabellini,
@yabellini@fosstodon.org avatar

@gvwilson Well, in Argentina, there is this version:
Step 1: tea bag in the empty cup.
Step 2: add hot milk.
Step 3 (optional): add sugar.

Just in case you missed it, there is no hot water involved in the process, and they don't remove the tea bag.

@Drmowinckels @gvwilson I only tested with black tea.

✍️ [Blog] Esta fue una propuesta de vinculacion universidad-industria a la cual aplicamos INTA Anguil y TECRO.

El proyecto gano el subsidio, pero finalmente no lo recibimos en gran parte por la pandemia, pero realizamos varias de las tareas.

Compartir el texto de una propuesta exitosa puede ser de utilidad a otros equipos academia-industria que quieran trabajar juntos.

I'm glad to see some personal growth in myself.

I just got the first funding proposal I was principal on rejected by CZI EOSS, and I'm fine. I get it. My project was smallish, and that there are larger more impactful projects to fund makes sense.

Am I sad? Sure, it would have been awesome to get funding to take the project to the next level. But all in good time.

@Drmowinckels damn. Sorry to hear you didn’t get the funding.

Just learned a man 3 years my junior, we used to be closer in our Uni days, died because of a ruptured aorta while on a walk with a friend.

That is way too young 💔

There's a concept we often talk about in health or psych of practitioners having cultural competency.

What would culturally competent computing look like?

yabellini,
@yabellini@fosstodon.org avatar

@grimalkina no research, but perhaps this can be tag as an attempt to a culturally competent computing?

At rOpenSci we start a set of interrelated activities around capacity building, community development, and software development practices and their integration into our mature activities.

The main outcome is that our software peer-review process can now be conducted in English, Spanish, or both. Our book was localized to Spanish, and more Latin American people are part of the community now.

Today I cooked for my kids (because husband is at dinner with his friends).

For the first time they told me that they loved it. As good as daddy food.

Maybe at 46 I'm finally learning to cook. 👩‍🍳 😅🤭

@Drmowinckels @yabellini I always volunteer him for cooking! 🤭

Ask @hfrick about LatinR dinner 😁 (I think she can confirm I volunteer him and he is a good cooker 😇)

Este es un gran hito para nuestra comunidad de rOpenSci.

Nuestro libro sobre cómo desarrollar y revisar paquetes está disponible en español.

Esperamos que sea un recurso útil para la comunidad hispanohablante que desarrolla, revisa y enseña sobre código abierto y ciencia abierta.
