 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: Download a discussion guide and activist toolkit.

Please check out my new post on my WordPress blog, "Available for Work." https://leahcville.wordpress.com  Our 50th birthday is a month away and we're getting ready to celebrate! We want you to join in the fun by taking a photo with a Flat Twin and signing up for a virtual challenge to walk or run a total of 5K, 50K, or 50 miles in the month of May to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer.   Thinking about Patty Workman and all the people in Charlottesville she had such a positive impact on ... she will be missed. Looking forward to in-person long runs with the Charlottesville Track Club's Marathon and Half Marathon Training Program this summer/fall! Had fun designing a new icon based graphic representing the locations of group runs.
So proud to take part in Ragged Mountain Running Shop's Winter Mileage Club! My 980.63 miles = $20 donation divided among these amazing nonprofit organizations! - Rivanna Trails Foundation - Piedmont Environmental Council - Sauders Trail at Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello - Botanical Garden of the Piedmont - Run Charlottesville   I'd love to see more research and scholarly articles on Pokémon GO.

Yet, a minimal amount is understood about whether, how, and why digital games, notably mobile games, might affect mental health, particularly depression. In this work, we examine the effect of location-based mobile gaming on local depression trends. We measure population-level depression using a well-established mechanism from the medical and public health literature, internet search of depression-related terms. We argue that the introduction of Pokémon Go, a mobile game that encourages outdoor physical activity, face-to-face socialization, and exposure to nature, may alleviate non-clinical forms of mild depression for users playing the game. To identify the effect, we employ a difference-in-differences approach to exploit the staggered release of Pokémon Go into 166 regions in 12 English-speaking countries. We empirically document a disproportionate decrease in depression-related search in those regions where users are able to play Pokémon Go. This finding lends credence to anecdotal claims that location-based mobile games may alleviate symptoms of depression of their users, underscoring the mental health opportunities of location-based mobile gaming and creating new opportunities for information systems research.

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.” How to Recover—and Follow Up—After You Bomb an Interview |
