Projects
Senior Project in Computer Science. Data science / vis intersection of Twitter and stocks. I'm well aware of a great many shortcuts and poor engineering / coding practices visible in this project. This was a single semester project, I was still in school, and I knowingly took many shortcuts in pursuit of a shiny finished product in short time. The repo is available on my github @bmfisher
