Good morning #Biel #Switzerland ☀️ Glorious view and a crispy air up in Magglingen/Mauclin this morning.

We were up late and are working across many timezones to get a project together. The team at 🍁 #QueensU has been very helpful, and we hope to give them good feedback and a boost in their work.

There will be a short window of opportunity to speak to them again in ~5 hours before the #OpenLegalLab presentations - we aim to have production-ready data, a Pull Request with lots of feedback, and our compelling use cases prepared.

Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn received honorary degrees from Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario

@thetyee Regarding #Oppenheimer and "the irreversibility of the invention of the atomic bomb", #ElonMusk says "it is not as scary as people think, basically." Maybe #QueensU should offer Elmo more than $8 to stop saying that he's an alum? https://www.thebeaverton.com/2023/04/queens-university-offers-musk-8-dollars-a-month-to-stop-telling-people-he-went-there/

With today’s Teaching Development Conference at #QueensU, it really does feel like the official start of the academic new year—so, Happy New Year!

Today is my new faculty orientation day at #QueensU ! I joined the faculty September 1 last year and missed all the orientation opportunities last cycle, so I am excited to more fully integrate into my new institution today!

It is hard to be seconded to a great lab like #SNOLAB while a faculty member at a beautiful university 6 hours driving away, so I am trying to make time quarterly to be present at Queen's to build and sustain new relationships and community.

Thank you to the Queen's Alumni Review for this lovely profile of my career as a royal historian https://www.queensu.ca/alumnireview/articles/2023-01-31/carolyn-harris-royal-history-expert #history #histodons #queensu

Up ‘til 1am playing Xbox with the kids so I had a Saturday morning sleep in. Trying out the new reading socks my Mom got me, they’re super cozy. My goal today is to get through these four and a half papers but even if I can only get through three I’ll consider the reading socks a success. 👍

Happy Caturday, friends!

Really interested in seeing how academia changes their take over the next few years with the coming explosion of Large Language Models.

For example, how does it change the way TA's have to approach material?

For profs in adjacent departments who will have students much "techier" than average (say a Comp Eng student taking a history elective), what tools do IT, department heads etc. have to put in place?
