Hello

Hello! I have wanted to start a blog for a long time, to have a place to pratice my writing, put my thoughts, and share things I’ve worked on. I don’t know yet exactly what I"ll post or how frequently, but this is the start. Posts will mostly be related to software engineering, data science, and other technology. Data related projects will intersect with my other hobbies in music and motorsports. There are a lot of places to go and I hope you’ll join me.

What’s in a name?

I know the name Broken Intuition is a little odd. I came up with the name a few years ago while I was working on my master’s degree. When studying statistics and machine learning, I kept noticing that what I expected, my intuition, was very different from reality. I had to learn to ignore that so I could understand. Figuring that situation would be common among people learning statistics, I wanted to create a website where I could write about working through that feeling. That never happened, but I bought the domain name and have been using it as a username since then, so I decided to reuse the name for this site.
