EagerEyes Shorts

Musings on visualization, photography, programming, etc. that are too long for Twitter but too short for (or don't fit) my visualization website, EagerEyes.org. Part of my vanity website, kosara.net, which is most notable for hosting my list of publications. If you still want to know more, see my university page at UNC Charlotte, and/or follow me on Twitter.

  • Professor: When you compare our genetic codes, they are 90% or even 95% identical.
  • Student: Wait, does that mean I could mate with a mouse?
