Officially PhDone

Well, 2023 is more than half over, and I'm finally sending a second newsletter out. But it comes with good news: I successfully defended my PhD dissertation...

Keyed In
Hey #histodons, how did you prepare for your PhD defense? I don't need slides but I'm not sure what else to do other than re-read the intro/conclusion and jot down some thoughts.
Today's tasks include writing the lit survey on the history of privacy in the US, which I have been avoiding for years because it sounds hard. Anyone know of a good recent review essay? #histodons #privacy
@hishamzerriffi looking this up immediately, thank you!
@[email protected] thank you!! A mirror is a great idea. Do you need a rack for the saddlebags or kid seat? (I am a true newbie)
I finally bought a bike last week! Waiting for my lock to arrive today, just in time for a scrap of warm weather. Any suggestions for good Bike Stuff to consider? Are those back racks worthwhile? What about kid seats?
Got to discuss speculative math on a Sunday morning! Credit goes to coffee and my fellow presenters @slhuang and @xgranade for helping me forget about the ants in my basement for an hour
Dude was a mixed bag but man, when he's good it slapped.
