Digging through some old papers I came across some practice questions from a Putnam exam.

I never made any of the finals teams, but I was in the competitions at Cal Poly SLO and UC Davis.

One of my favorite classes I ever took. Not bad for a psych major.

While biking the coastal trail Sunday eve, we met Salinas residents David, a teacher, and his daughter, Priscilla, home on spring break from her CalPoly classes.

Among the topics we touched on was April 10-13 Sea Otter Classic, which we think of as one big bike party! Who it’s for, how to get free admission, and history of #SeaOtterClassic: https://bikemonterey.org/april-10-13-sea-otter-classic-2025.html

I went to hear #Woz give the inaugural lecture for the Distinguished Speaker Series at the Noyce School of Applied Computing at #CalPoly. Lots of good stories of the early days.

Later I was speaking to one of the profs and he asked me to give a talk in his Data Science class. I think I will talk about what it’s like to do data science in a big corporate environment and what their classes haven’t prepared them to expect.

I have a list from my experience and would love to hear from others.
