Today I would like to appreciate @margootjeg, Judy Logan, Karen Matthys and everyone involved in creating @WiDS_Worldwide. Equality for women is not inevitable, and they have created a powerful movement for equality in data science. Thank you!

So proud of my friend and former colleague Laura and her co-founder Sarah!!! They are unstoppable. If you need formula, check out @bobbiebabyco

I was invited to give an MLK speech today and a small number of members of the group hosting me wrote and then leaked emails opposing my giving this speech, as it dishonored Dr. King for me to do so. They called me a "discredited activist" "unworthy of such association with King"

It was a pleasure to be a part of a panel on data science education today hosted by @harvard_data and @CChute. Learning about trends and what is happening at different institutions (and sharing about teaching Data Science at @YaleEnvironment this fall!).

"We must get rid of the false notion that there is some miraculous quality in the flow of time that heals all evils. There is only one thing certain about time, and that is that it waits for no one. If it is not used constructively, it passes you by." - MLK

Tuition-free community college would have benefited thousands of Americans and cost $9.5 billion per year, yet was cut from BBB because we “can’t afford it.” Well, the new defense budget is $20 billion more than the President requested. So what can and can’t we afford?

Excellent presentations today at our @YaleEnvironment class "Real World Environmental Data Science" by Andrew Farmsworth on @DrBirdCast, @CLNakalembe on her amazing work on sensor data and food insecurity, and capped by @oren_sa on droughts and cows. All related. Thank you!

Very cool Congressional hearing on how data could be used even better in Congress - data education, better reporting to the public, etc - exciting!

Thrilled our research paper on the impact of a key design change to Airbnb reviews is now published. Online platform design matters. Airbnb is built on trust, and reviews by guests and hosts provide critical information to know about a stay on Airbnb. @AndreyFradkin @daveholtz
