So, I guess I should re-introduce myself. I'm Matt, a 6th-year PhD student in Erica Westerman's lab at the University of Arkansas. I'm interested in the evolutionary ecology of invertebrate visual systems and sensory integration. I'm currently also studying how the model butterfly Bicyclus anynana learns mate preferences.

I was mjosmurphy, but I've made a new account after deactivating my old one.

Folks interested in social equity who work in data science will want to take note: the publishers of RStudio have reached a formal business agreement with Palantir, the espionage and cyberweapons company. The owner of Palantir, Peter Thiel, has said that democracy and freedom are incompatible with each other, and that poor people's lives are inherently worth less than those of rich people. Consider finding an alternative to RStudio as a data analysis IDE.
