LinkTree profile for Darrell R Ulm

Here is my LinkTree profile LinkTree for Darrell Ulm

Creating a Linktree turned out to be a really easy way to share my work, my social profiles, and the different communities I’m part of. It also makes it simpler for people to find me, whether they’re looking for my Kaggle projects, my GitHub code, or my research pages.

What I Added to My Linktree

I pulled together links from all over the web, including:

  • Tech and coding profiles like Kaggle, GitHub, Drupal, SourceForge, and Open Hub

  • Research and academic pages such as ORCID, Google Scholar, Web of Science, ResearchGate, DBLP, and my Kent State papers

  • Personal and creative sites including WordPress, Blogspot, Weebly, Wix, and About.me

  • Learning and community platforms like Codecademy and SlideShare

  • Social profiles on Threads, Instagram, Tumblr, and Goodreads

It’s a mix of professional work, personal interests, and older projects that still show parts of my journey.

I’m someone who enjoys learning new things and working through interesting technical challenges. My background is in Computer Science, and over time I’ve worked with several programming languages such as Python, C, C++, and PHP/MySQL. I like exploring data driven problems, parallel computing, and the kinds of algorithms that make systems more efficient.

I have experience using tools like Apache Spark for large scale data processing, and I’ve been spending more time studying different areas of Artificial Intelligence, including neural networks and modern language models. I’m always trying to understand how these ideas work in practice and how they can be applied in useful ways.

I also have a long history with web development and content management systems. Drupal has been a major part of that work, and I’ve used versions from 4 through 10 on a variety of projects.

Overall, I’m here to keep improving my skills, learn from others, and contribute wherever I can.

Threads profile for Darrell Ulm

I've recently taken the step of joining Threads as Darrell Ulm (https://www.threads.com/@darrell_r_ulm ),  as I embark on a journey to relearn and expand my existing knowledge in areas like artificial intelligence. My current focus involves delving deeper into the intricacies of AI, particularly exploring the fascinating world of Large Language Models (LLMs) and understanding how these sophisticated models are developed and utilized. I'm also revisiting the fundamentals of Neural Networks, the core building blocks that enable AI systems to learn and make predictions. Given the computational demands of these fields, I'm also keen on extending the principles and applications I previously learned in parallel processing, which plays a crucial role in efficiently handling the complex computations involved in AI.

Drupal 7 EOL and how long will Drupal 9 be Supported

How long will Drupal 9 be supported.  Currently, it is 2023. This is a crucial question for Drupal site owners and builders. While that may seem like a long time away, upgrading from Drupal 8 to 9 is relatively easy compared to previous upgrades from Drupal 5 to 6 and 6 to Drupal 7.

Where does this leave the Drupal 7 sites that still need to be upgraded to Drupal 9? The year is 2022, and Drupal 7 continues to be supported for a bit longer to help developers and owners with the upgrade process.

Drupal 8 and 9 have really come into their own in recent years. Drupal 8 offered significant enhancements compared to Drupal 7, and the contributed modules are looking promising for the future of Drupal.
