Really enjoyed my first time at @ELIXIREurope BioHackathon. We co-led the project "Bioschemas for Mortals" to identify and articulate improvements to guidance for marking up life sciences data sets. #BioHackEU24 @csmcr

1800 days streak on Duolingo! The picture is in Spanish because that's the only way to start learning Catalan, from Spanish. (Just about getting by with the instructions.)

@FirstWestYorks You have phantom services in your bus app. There is (sadly) only one 592 per hour, not two, 5 minutes apart. The timetables don't agree with Google Maps data either. Cutting services in your western area is bad enough, please don't tease us with imaginary ones.

And coming back from Hebden Bridge, your app and your digital sign are out of agreement by 10 minutes. The app was accurate, the sign was not. Must learn not to rely on the provided info else we'd miss the (infrequent) bus.

Keynote address from Bruno Dupire at Bloomberg Academic Symposium. His team developed a tool to identify key clustered colours from any image (eg Kilmt's woman in gold) then use in Bloomberg charts of categorical data. Interesting!

I'm on my way to London for Bloomberg Academic Symposium by @business. First 🚂 change, Leeds. (If I don't look happy, that's just because I've been up since 6am! It will be a great day after I fully wake up. 😴)

How to get people over 35 interested in ChatGPT? Or maybe how to put them off entirely...

I try to keep this account work-related but I couldn't resist sharing this holiday snap. Today I rode the mechanical elephant at Machines de L'Île, Nantes, France. It did not disappoint!
