Friday was my last day working at 18F. It was a team of extraordinary people, but a few things happened that made me realize I had to leave.

Everything happens so much these days, so I thought I’d write down for myself what happened, and how I made my decision:

Jfc we’re cooked. I guess 2026 will be filled with campaigning for dems to flip congress.

“Clinical Guidance for PrEP” page gone.

The northeast breaking off into its own country sounds nice.

The Bluesky api is pretty well documented

During the summer of 2020 I was a new grad and unemployed, so I tried to learn some skills. I made an interactive light installation that streamed to Twitch/YouTube that was controlled via chat and a website.

@brendanarnold.bsky.social Hi Brendon, I found you from the creative tech hashtag. I’m also interested in public policy innovation. That public policy lab looks pretty cool!

On Election night I made a scraper that took the #NYTimes election data json ~every 10 minutes and put it on my mechanical display. #creativetech #dataviz This is a timelapse of the night with the sound added back in. vimeo.com/1027074047

Where are my other #creativetechnologists at?

Started a project to replay and visualize my rides real time after the fact. This is a screen recording of playing back a ride from the FIT file on Strava. Units are in mph, and using #python to read the data.

@katharinehayhoe.com hi, saw your profile on the discover page. Do you have any recommendations on how people with a CS background can get involved or work in the climate science field? Have experience with microcontrollers, full stack web dev, and interactive art.
