Hey fediverse, I'd like to become more active in something that is more meaningful than building webshops. Since I'm quite good with #computers I'm looking for stuff that combines #computing with #sustainability or #ecology, #restoration etc.

But I don't know what's out there and am not sure what exactly to look for, so I'm hoping for some fediverse magic.

Anything you have, articles, projects, etc. Would be cool if you boosted for reach.

These Adm. Grace Hopper talks from NSA are a must-watch for anyone moving information around. Just listening to her amazing brain grappling with concepts of data availability that we're *still* relearning every year is humbling. nsa.gov/Press-Room/Press-Relea…

Looking for people who know something about early computing, especially in the Netherlands. Please boost and help me solve the mystery of this custom made plate that used to belong to my grandfather Bram Jan Loopstra, one of the pioneers of Dutch computing. What do the pictures mean? #computing #history

Posting from the persona of my day job as a research scientist studying #adolescence, early life #adversity, and #cognition using intensive #longitudinal designs and #fMRI.

I'm mostly a methods and scientific #computing nut with a strong streak of scientific #critique and desire to improve scientific practice including #OpenScience and #philosophyofscience.

I think a more just society is possible. I think improving adolescent #wellbeing depends on expanding opportunities.
