Digitale Forschung in der Theologie - freue mich sehr, bei dieser Tagung von @VanOorschot_FEST und Knut Wormstädt
vom 29.-31.3.23 in Aachen mit vielen Akteur*innen aus #DH und #Theologie eine Response halten zu dürfen. Eine Anmeldung ist bis zum 10.3. per Mail möglich, s. Programm

“The #fediverse is like #email.”

Yes.

Now read this and understand it:

“I have been self-hosting my email since I got my first broadband connection at home in 1999 … But my emails are just not delivered anymore. I might as well not have an email server.

Email is now an oligopoly, a service gatekept by a few big companies which does not follow the principles of net neutrality … I lost. We lost. One cannot reliably deploy independent email servers.“

Cannot reiterate this enough:

PLEASE don’t request refunds from Apple for any unused time on your Twitterrific or Tweetbot subscriptions.

It could literally bankrupt small shops like these.

RBB:
- Schlesinger bot amtierender Kulturchefin Vertrag über all-in 450 T EUR an.
- Rundfunkrat Stohn zu 1,4 Mio Anwaltshonoraren: man könne den Eindruck gewinnen, dass die vom RBB hauptsächlich beschäftigte Kanzlei Lutz und Abel „möglichen Mittätern des Systems Schlesinger hilft, den Kopf aus der Schlinge zu ziehen“.

I am testing mastodon for a bit, so more probably it is useful to make an official #presentation I am a postdoc at the #digitalhumanities unit at the university of geneva, where I am working in the fuzzy area that exist in the intersection between knowledge graphs, big visual data and cultural interpretation. Maybe #digitalarthistory ? Academia aside: movie lover, aperitif enthusiast, politics chatterbox, espresso drinker and reader of written pages.

The changelog for this monster release is over 1000 lines long. Highlights:
- `pandoc lua` works as a #LuaLang interpreter;
- `pandoc server` starts #pandoc as a server;
- The new "chunkedhtml" format generates paged, book-like output;
- Support for [[wikilinks]] and ==highlighting== in #Markdown (both hidden behind extensions);
- Better support for complex #figures;
- list tables for #reStructuredText output;
- and much more.

When we talk about #accessibility and inclusiveness at research/academic events:

As session chair or moderator, please learn how to #pronounce the #names of the speakers! Apologizing for having no idea or for clearly wrong pronunciation is not a valid solution

When the room is equipped with a #microphone, please use it! No, your “loud voice” is not enough — and it will not last for very long, anyway

2019: big petition in the #machineLearning community to allow remote presentations at scientific conferences

2020-21: ML conferences are virtual-only

2022: several major in-person conferences are super-spreader events

2023: "at least one author of each accepted paper must attend to present their work in person"

I know the virtual formats were less than ideal, but I can't blame junior researchers who are torn between flying halfway across the globe for a conference and harming their career.
