I'm Augustus or Gus
Who am I?
Iโm @augustus-thomas, current undergrad at the College of Wooster. I am a double major in Physics and Computer Science. I've done research in a lab, and I write Physics simulations.
I'd like to collaborate on open source information and data science projects, particularly ones with a compelling social impact.
Swartz, Snowden, Manning and everyone else were right in their view that access to information is the key to a free society. So too was Robert Ochigame. I think programmers collectively wield the most powerful tool ever built, and we should be opinionated about what we do with it.
I would like to build software that helps vulnerable people.
I would like to achieve an MS in Electrical Engineering or go directly into industry out of undergrad.
