I made some. It was tasty. I added walnuts. Yum.

212 copies in humans, 37 in chimps, 30 in macaques, 1 in rodents…proportional to size of neocortex?
I don’t know why the last post got cut off…maybe I’ll finish it one of these days. Pretty busy with grad school apps, two senior projects, classes, and frisbee, though. (Not to mention robotics, NEO, and the mental energy […]
Theory research ended well a couple weeks ago. We didn’t solve the general social networks problem we had been working on, but we produced ~40 pages and two programs that have gotten us closer. For the last week and a half I’ve been translating an introductory statistics class manual from SPSS to R. I’m very […]
I’m done with finals! As I go through papers from this past year, I find various programs from things I saw or participated in. Here’s a little list for (as usual) my own benefit:
- Into the Woods
- The Vagina Monologues
- Twelfth Night
- Minnesota Undergraduate Psychology Conference (presented poster)
Happy Summer!
I’ve known this for years! How else would I finish all of the things on my plate? I do robotics and research instead of studying, and then study instead of…sleeping? Keeping myself under pressure certainly makes me productive. Things get done like in a priority heap; when something turns urgent, it gets done. In the […]
This morning Jamie and I presented a poster of our project from Cognitive Processes last Spring at the Minnesota Undergraduate Psychology Conference. The title of our poster (and linked paper) is Lexical Variety in Human Processing of Syntactically Ambiguous Sentences. Our presentation was from 8:45 to 9:45am. For such an early slot, we had a […]
Here is a description of my experience interviewing at Microsoft. I flew in Monday night at 11:15, Pacific time, and shared a limo to the hotel with another interviewee (he was from Florida). I was pretty tired, but stayed up fairly late doing homework because I was nervous. I got up early on Tuesday, although […]
My mom just sent me this. She’s cool, and so is the article. I’ll comment on it later.
In other news, today was the last day of classes this Winter at Carleton! I took an Algorithms II test that had me worried, but I think I did pretty well (although you can never be sure with […]
Below are links to the REUs I am still applying for this year. (I also applied to Texas A&M and U of MN Cog Sci.) I’m not sure if I’ll end up at one of them, or working with the Budapest Computational Neuroscience Group in Hungary, or working at Carleton (3rd summer!) doing research on […]
Last weekend I went to Bratislava on Saturday with Shanti, Andrew, Melinda, Patrick, and Kelsay, while Dora took the SAT…meant to make a post about it, but this mention will have to suffice.
The matter at hand: Yesterday was the last day of class, and our final exam. The exam went well (I love oral exams!), […]
