Hi! I'm an economist and data scientist based in the Chicago-area, but most of the projects on this Github don't have much to do with either. It has some statistics projects but it also just has a lot of for-fun programming projects:
-
SLOBIL. A programming language I wrote on the bus to work from circa 2018-2019 to present that I made the mistake of actually using so it has gotten seriously out of hand for a hobbyist language. It has a command-like, TCL-ish syntax with a heavy focus on being easy to use interactively (i.e. from the REPL). Many "programs" in the language are just collections of operators you can use in the REPL.
-
ArticleML. A markup language for writing research articles with math for the web. It includes a simple language for writing math, references, a citation system, and other niceties for writing articles on the internet.
-
Leas. A flexible interactive command-line program for managing personal finances. It is extensible with Guile, a dialect of Scheme/Lisp, which you can use to do things like update the value of your mutual fund holdings, etc.
-
genvar. An R package that lets you use clean data, etc, in a more "imperative" way, ala Stata.
-
subtitle_er. A python script to create MPlayer-compatible subtitle files from video using OpenAI's whisper package.
