"We need an FDA for algorithms"

I had "Coded Bias" on my DVR since it aired on PBS's Independent Lens on March 22, but I finally watched it yesterday. It was riveting and mind-blowing for me.

I'm actually shocked I didn't have nightmares about data collection and face recognition software last night because I was terrified watching this documentary.

I'm also in awe of the work that Joy Buolamwini has done and just signed up for the Algorithmic Justice League!

You can watch Coded Bias on PBS:

Interviews

I've had just a handful of job interviews in the past 20+ years so it's hard not to think I've bombed when maybe I'm just overanalyzing. I am grateful that with COVID-19 I've been able to have interviews over the phone or Google Meet so at least I'm in comfortable surroundings. :)

7 Things You Can Do After A Really Bad Job Interview
“People tend to spend time wishing they could rewind and do it over. It is very normal to feel negative after a bad interview. As an unemployed job seeker, you are naturally very emotionally raw and vulnerable.”
