Starting to write

"The best way to figure out what you think is to try to write it down." -- said by someone much smarter than me.

This is the first thing I'm putting here.

Over the last few years, I've spent a lot of time building things: an RL agent that plays pool, an AI tutor used in schools, Joygram, and a bunch of smaller projects along the way.

However, I never wrote down what I was thinking or learning when building this stuff.

That was definitely a mistake. So this is my attempt to start now and to keep a record of that.

I want this to be a small corner of the internet where I can share what I'm working on, what I'm learning, and whatever else feels worth writing down.

What to expect

For now, most of my writing will be about a research project I'm working on around dysarthric speech.

The goal is to build software that can make slurred or hard-to-understand speech easier to understand, especially for people with dysarthria.

I'm still early, but I'm excited about the problem and I'll try to share progress as I go.

More soon. 😊
