This is my second appearance on the Alteryx podcast. In this episode, I talk about my decade of work on climate change. It isn’t very technical, but I hope people appreciate the insights.
I saw an engine building demonstration recently that I thought was very interesting. I thought it would be a good topic to share in this series.
Sometimes time lapse photography can surprise you with activities that you didn’t notice were happening when you made the movie.
The AI powered image enhancer program named Remini was used to make a future avatar of our 6-month old grandson. The results surprised everyone in our family!

My Datablends blog got hacked in early October, 2022. The next month was not a fun time. I spent many hours on the phone trying to understand how to fix the problems. In this article, I summarize what I learned and did to eliminate the malware that infected my blog.
This article investigates the sensitivity of my global warming simulator to the length of the simulations. I wanted to understand if 10, 20 , 30 or more years of data would be required before stable temperature predictions would be achieved.
This article discusses how I helped build the first-ever Alteryx E-Grand Prix competition. The article includes thoughts on building the competition problems and the behind-the-scenes activities that have to happen to make this type of event successful.
This article shows a gender reveal party we had for Sarah and Cory. It was a fun event, full of surprises!

Eight years ago, I had no idea that my work would lead to the topic of this article. Predicting temperatures far into the future is really hard to do. Somehow, I’ve managed to create a method that seems pretty good at doing that.
This is part 3 of a story that documents a recent trip to California.
Eight years of data-driven global warming research is wrapped up in this article. You can unpack a half-a-billion data points in this article to explore the ideas for yourself. You can download Tableau dashboards that will teach you a thing or two about linear modeling. Most of all, you will gain a better understanding of what is going on across our beautiful planet if you take the time to study this work.
We were already down two strikes by the end of day 1. Mother nature was throwing curveballs at us that we could not have hit. Who would have thought that a National Park could be on fire on the day that you traveled thousands of miles to see it?
This is going to be a multi-part story about my global warming research and how my insights can be interpreted and understood. I think this series will be a good one.
