You will learn later on in these tests that word-wrap: break-word; will be your best friend.

Strike Tag

This tag will let you ~~strikeout text~~.

Emphasize Tag

The emphasize tag should italicize text.

Insert Tag

This tag should denote inserted text.

Keyboard Tag

This scarcely known tag emulates keyboard text, which is usually styled like the <code> tag.

Preformatted Tag

This tag styles large blocks of code.

.post-title {

Developers, developers, developers… –Steve Ballmer

Strong Tag

This tag shows bold text.

Subscript Tag

Getting our science styling on with H₂O, which should push the “2” down.

Superscript Tag

About me

Shaping the Future of Mobility with Human-Centered AI

For over 15 years, I have turned idea concepts into production-ready intelligent systems at Intel and BMW. As a research professor, I am now pioneering the next wave of human-centric AI to build a safer, more intelligent mobility future. This site is an exploration of that journey at the intersection of AI, automotive, and user experience.

 Jupyter notebook markdown generator
# Jupyter notebook markdown generator These .ipynb files are Jupyter notebook files that convert a TSV containing structured data about talks (`talks.tsv`) or presentations (`presentations.tsv`) into individual markdown files that will be properly formatted for the academicpages template. The notebooks contain a lot of documentation about the process. The .py files are pure python that do the same things if they are executed in a terminal, they just don't have pretty documentation.
