IntroducingMyself

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

Oh hi, I didn't see you there.

This is my first post, Steemit.

This is me.

My name is Kael. I'm from Sydney, Australia. I'm a 28-year-old clumsy, stubborn-ass lady, who's happiest when I'm walking my pooches, correcting other people's grammar, eating (or drinking) chocolate, or thinking (about chocolate). I do not like people who are too earnest, or people who think not liking people for arbitrary reasons is shallow. I'm not much of a writer but I love reading. I like lists; I love my dogs.

This is Wilco.

Wilco is a 5 year old mix-breed pooch - his DNA said he is Husky x Labrador x Australian Cattle Dog x Beagle - who's happiest taking a walk, wandering with his family and/or friends, going on a stroll around and to the park, or visiting his grandparents. He does not like trips in the car, the vacuum cleaner or being left alone at home.

This is Nanuk.

Nanuk is a 7 month old Leonberger, who's happiest chewing on a stick, sitting directly on your foot (no matter how heavy she is), swimming in the ocean, sticking her head out the car window and eating whatever you're eating. She does not like her leash, staying at home when you're out or people who do not feed her.

What's my main deal

For my nine-to-five, I work in a pretty regular job running operations and managing instruction for General Assembly in Sydney, Australia. I feel pretty strongly about practical education and I love technology, so it suits me well. I'm fascinated by machine learning and AI, although I wonder if the world is heading to a machine-based apocalypse.

I live in a pretty functional relationship with @Perptacular, who keeps going on about Steemit. We watch a lot of Nine Life together.

Hi Kael! Welcome to steemit and my new obsession lol! If you're interested in AI., my boss is about to create a steemit page for our company. We will be doing posts on neural networks, machine learning and AI! So I'll make sure to get that link to you when it is all running!

Also, side note:

If you want to know more about crypto and blockchain tech. Which is pretty damn interesting as far as tech goes. Head over to learningblockchains.com. My boss and I created this site to teach people! :D Also Whilst I'm talking about my work-related things. Check out learningtensorflow.com, Tensorflow is a programming language that does difficult math problems, Machine learning is on the list in there :P Heaps of tutorials to help you in that area :D

Happy steeming :D

Cool! Do let me know. God, your job sounds schweet! :) Thanks for the good tips; will check'm out.

Hi and welcome to steemit @mcfiretruck. Yay I too like chocolate and plenty of it I have to admit. I love the name Wilco for your dog. And guess what I too love dogs. My dog was called Conan a German Shepherd. I think we have a lot in common Kael because between chocolate and dogs we both have steemit too. Take care @racykacy

Conan's an awesome name. Dogs and chocolate are true joys in this world. :)

I can't argue with that @mcfiretruck, and yes Conan was a great name. I named him after CONAN The DESTROYER... no doubt there is reason behind Wilcos name too... do tell I'm curious. Stay safe and well @racykacy

It was after the band - I love the song California Stars. It was only after I got him it means Will Comply in pilot speak (i.e. roger, wilco!). :)

Curiosity killed the cat so they say. Yay and now I know and therefore can sleep tonight. I have upvoted your response to my comment for putting my mind at rest. Keep well @mcfiretruck... @racykcy

Thanking you! :)

Hey mate, Kael, I'm Oatmeal Joey, and you are from down under in Australia. I have always wanted to go there. I'm from Oregon. I'm near Seattle, now. I love your fun photos here. I love animals. I was in Vietnam. I have met people from Australia. I love the Australian accent.

Thanks Oatmeal Joey! :) Seattle is a place I've always wanted to visit! I'm not super fond of the American accent but we were in California and Nevada last year and people were so friendly and lovely; I loved it over there!

Kael, why are you mcfiretruck? Are you related to a fireman? I mean, fire fighter? Hey, I love chocolate, too. I like dogs, too. But I am more a cat person. You seem to be a fun person. You seem to love laughing. Me too.

What a great mix of dogs. A true Aussie mongrel mix, just like my old fella who is dachshund cross foxie cross ??

And just like most of us. How many countries can you fit into an ancestry seems to be a bit of thing with Aussies.

You have me terrified of making any grammatical errors, I would hate you to be annoyed. Haha.

Those big bitzers, they do them right over here! :) And don't worry, I'm kind when I first meet you. But my mother hates me because she no longer can say the word "brought" or "bought" without second-guessing whether she has used the right word.

Hahahaha. Sounds like you were brought up in the same school of spelling and grammar I was. Detention or worse for spelling errors, and if you made a grammatical error, it was all over!
