Everyone loves Penguins, right? What about visualizing them using ~ schematic Chernoff faces? Here's a 1st proof-of-concept example Claude helped me with. Bill sizes are way too small. Sex is mapped to eye shape, but can't easily be seen. Anyone want to help with this?

1/2 A reminder to anyone who was RIFed. 💯 you do NOT deserve this. Quick tips if you do get a RIF notice: ❌ Do not send a read receipt ❌ Do not respond right away - the union will probably provide language for response ✅ Forward notice to your personal email

At some point the field of medical informatics will have to come to terms with the fact that clinicians rarely even pay attention to prediction models in the EHR. "Decision support" is a nice fantasy but there are already too many competing demands on clinician time.
