Pull your own pants down first. I had an amazing #Grindr career. Came up two views short of a thousand in a 24-hour period. 998. #God had to talk me out of opening up the #Onlyfans. You've already heard the rest. They can just #research the thread. 😹😹😹
Thank you Tom the Plumber.🙏🏻

Oh, that's a new one: Just received two different requests to review the same article (sent to two different e-mail addresses). I guess the journal using "AI to find and invite reviewers" might have something to do with this.

Sind Passierscheine die Zugänge begrenzen noch zeitgemäss?

Where Should Scholars Draw the Line on AI? newsletter.dancohen.org/archive/where-… #AI #research #libraries
Text Shot: But it is worth noting that search and discovery within large-scale collections have always been mediated, whether that mediation occurred through physical means, like a card catalog, or digital means, like today’s library website. Choices have been made about metadata, descriptions, and the various information architectures of sorting and surfacing. AI merely presents the opportunity for a new ordering based on different principles. In early testing, I have come to believe that for most students and researchers AI can, if implemented thoughtfully and within certain parameters, provide a better search and discovery experience. And just as important, if these interfaces are done well there should be nothing preventing a scholar from proceeding the old way by sequentially scanning a digital collection or shelf, or doing a translation or data extraction themselves.

Being busy as an academic back then. Sitting in your working spacing (here it's the Initial "G"), wearing your thinking hat, doing scientific stuff with instruments (he's measuring), and forgetting the world outside (in this case a page in Latin about geography). The year is 1523. #academicchatter
The initial "G" on a print from 1532. A man sitting in the G and is working with a geographical instrument. This is a detail from "Introductio Geographica Petri Apiani" (Augsburg, Staats- und Stadtbibliothek, 2 LR 18#(Beibd. 2)
