I know that no one is really going to read this so whatever, but while I’m here I’ll just write something out.

So this page was created trying to play around with this static site generator and APIs and frankly, it was not a smooth as I thought it would be. Anyway, here is the filler content.

First, of course, here is some Hipster Ipsum (https://hipsum.co/).

These are some communities that have been interesting and helpful for me, some because I’m interested personally, some as a cofounder of Quantierra and some as an engineer or data scientist at my company. I am fortunate that a lot of my interests, as well as a lot of knowledge and skills and technologies I need for my startup, have really welcoming and friendly communities. It really helps to build up skills and confidence in order to tackle harder and more complex projects I have helped build and work on, from something as complex as my company’s softwre to something as one-off as NYC zoning analysis.

Here are some of the programming or data related communities that I have found helpful on Meetup and in person events. I’ll add more as I have time. All the information is pulled from the Meetup API.

Here are some forums that I have found helpful and just like above, they are open and welcoming to questions and discussions from new people. I find it interesting that all of them are built on Discourse, which itself is an open source project using Ruby on Rails, a framework I am somewhat familiar with and have used before. I’ll add more as I have time.

Here are some of the programming or data related question and answer sites that I have found helpful on Stack Exchange. All the information is pulled from the Stack Exchange API.

Here are some Twitter accounts that I found helpful and interesting to follow for programming and data related stuff and see more looking at who Sandip Trivedi. I’ll add more as I have time. All the information is pulled from the Twitter API.

Since Quantierra is support by investors and funds (like Y Combinator and Venture Souq) that have also invested in other technology startups, their portfolio companies and communities have also been helpful to me.

Let’s end with some Fillerama ipsum with Futurama ipsum (http://fillerama.io/)

There, now he’s trapped in a book I wrote: a crummy world of plot holes and spelling errors!

For example, if you killed your grandfather, you’d cease to exist! I barely knew Philip, but as a clergyman I have no problem telling his most intimate friends all about him. What are you hacking off? Is it my torso?! ‘It is!’ My precious torso!

Ugh, it’s filthy! Why not create a National Endowment for Strip Clubs while we’re at it? Michelle, I don’t regret this, but I both rue and lament it. I love this planet! I’ve got wealth, fame, and access to the depths of sleaze that those things bring.
