can’t find a way to include a more substantive description for this ‘publication’ beyond the subtitle , so doing it this way i guess
what
- notes , observations , fledgling analyses & ~ideations~ of a recovering systems analyst / progressing (admittedly unorthodox) ‘data science’ autodidact† in the midst of ongoing self-study & practice
- with a particular bent towards the skeptical & the mistrustful-of-popular-&-professional-bastardizations / breathless technotopian neophilism around current ‘Data’ discourse & practice
- (to say nothing of an emphatic bent towards the ungrammatical)
why
- im using medium as a thought & study journal / (self)conversational platform / mental vomitorium
- im using ‘publications’ to thematically organize & differentiate thoughts & sketches since i can’t discern any other way to meaningfully organize it beyond 3 hashtags, which don’t quite do it
who
- see ‘what’, else: zha ep
† today probably more precisely termed onlinedidact
