BlueSky friends, need your opinion:
@juanlam.com challenged me to write a #newsletter. Questions I have:
✍️
- Suggestions for getting started?
- Balancing time and schedule?
📖
- What topics are interesting?
- How do you want to engage?

More thoughts 👇
Some of my interests:
- Applied Category Theory
- Systems Engineering
- Philosophy of Science
- Geospatial Health Informatics
- Pandemic Science
- Population Dynamics & Modeling
- Christian Faith & Practice
- High Performance Computing
I tend to write hundreds of personal notes on these subjects.

Great! I think @oxinabox.net would like this -- I think you wrote a blog about Julia + BlueSky if I remember right?
"Congratulations, this project has been selected this time (by the random script)." Much excitement to be had in JuliaHealth world!
JuliaHealth won a @numfocus.bsky.social Small Dev Grant! 🎉
We'll be developing workflow guides, providing accessible on-ramps for new members, and improving org infra! ⚒️
If you're doing health work in #rstats or #python, excited to share where #julialang comes in! 🤠

This is pretty incredible work by @cncastillo.bsky.social!
Really exciting to see #medical #imaging continue to grow within #julialang -- especially the GPU acceleration via KomaMRI.jl (link: github.com/JuliaHealth/...)
Plus, the @makie.org plots look fantastic!
