On the third and final day of my Ethereum Developer Training course, I implemented my first DApp: TWTL, a decentralized version of Twitter on the blockchain. Funniest part is that you have to pay transaction costs for each post. It’s sure to catch on soon!

Cloudy morning in Davos on my walk in for day 2 of #SEED2019. Looking forward to getting hands on with code today after yesterday’s overview of various problems in science.
Problems in academia
I exited academia over 20 years ago. It was depressing to learn that all of the issues that led me to leave still exist today and may in fact have worsened. But on the bright side, many smart people have ideas for improving collaboration, equity, inclusion, etc. #SEED2019
SEED Opening Talk
Great opening “rant” by Dr. Jon Tennant advocating for Open Science (i.e. just good science) at #SEED2019.
SEED Day 1
Good morning from Davos! Discussing the future of research infrastructure in science at #SEED2019.
