  1. I bought this Steelcase chair for #WFH. Every #Caturday she hops in the chair when I’m not using it. If I move her, she just gets in my lap. She doesn't want me -- she wants the chair.

  3. One long ago, the kittens Malala and Marjon came to live with us. Unaware of his sister, Marjon smooshed her head under some pillows. Malala has never forgiven him.






  4. Rest assured, this #Caturday, that there is a cat in your life like Malala who is disappointed that you are not doing something that they expect you to do, but did not tell you about.

  9. Vote! I just finished my first batch of Vote Forward letters to encourage voter turnout. You can do this, too! Go to votefwd.org and receive instructions on how to send hand-written letters to voters giving them a list of the candidates on their local ballot and encouraging them to vote. #vote #democracy #civic #CivicDuty #election #vote2024 #turnOutTheVote #RockTheVote #VoterTurnout #RegisterToVote #RegisterAndVote

  10. So #BirdSite shared the error message of "Sorry! You have exceeded your Tweet limit. Try Retweet again tomorrow"

    Say what now? Based on my profile, I only shared 3 #retweets today. I'll have to ration them better. Sorry everyone, only WSDL members get my retweets now. 😆

    Then I found I could not #Tweet at all. DMs no longer load. I can't follow anyone.

    The #TwitterTakeover is going so well. #TwitterDown #Twitter

    #Mastodon #Fediverse for the win! Thanks for welcoming me here!

  11. I just finished some #proposals yesterday. Last week I submitted a #paper. When I was a #student I worried about acceptance after submission. Now, instead of worrying, I feel relieved and excited to move on to other #projects.

    Why the change?
    * I'm more #experienced now.
    * I saw the #work through, giving a sense of accomplishment.
    * My projects are diversified, sustaining my work.

    I mention this for any struggling #PhDStudent. It gets better.

  12. As a #ComputerScientist, I believe that #automation *can* make things better for us. Unfortunately, it appears that tech companies are giving up on trying to solve actual problems and instead are pushing solutions with problematic implications.

    For example: #Facebook has shown me “Try a suggested comment” for posts from friends and family. This is not predictive text to help me type, this is replacing my voice. Am I wrong to want to #KeepMyOwnVoice?

  13. Looks like I’m running out. Time to schedule a beer run tomorrow.

    Thanks to @hvdsomp for introducing me to this beer, one of my favorites!

  14. #Twitter just #shadowbanned my PhD advisor Michael L. Nelson. He was covering how the wife of the US Speaker of the House had an anti-#LBTQ+ website and just took it down, but it’s still in #webarchives. Due to the #shadowban, we can view the tweets by URL, but cannot view the whole thread. He’s asked us to #retweet him in hopes of: (1) getting the word out about the shadowban, and (2) overcoming the shadowban (unlikely).

  15. My wife and I just finished season 1 of the #TelevisionSeries#Kindred” on #Hulu. It is based on a book by Octavia Butler. I really hope it gets renewed. I’d like to see what happens to the characters.

  16. I wonder how many will pay. I'm not being facetious. At this point, I'm not sure enough have left #Twitter to make a dent in its cultural and sociopolitical impact and I'm concerned that competing platforms (e.g., #Mastodon, #Bluesky, #Threads) are losing each #TwitterMigrant back to #BirdSite.

    Per Variety:"Elon Musk Suggests He Will Charge All X/Twitter Users a Fee to Be on the Platform”

    Edit: since I posted, Bluesky/Threads are trending on Twitter.

  17. Yesterday at #TPDL2023 David Pride presented “CORE-GPT: Combining Open Access research and large language models for credible, trustworthy question answering”

    Rather than #ZeroShot question/answering, Pride’s team combines the #CORE #OpenAccess dataset with #ElasticSearch to create #FewShot prompts that leverage the strength of combining #search results with the #LLM’s (#GPT) #summarization abilities to produce an answer to a user’s question including citations.
