  1. I was delighted to sit down with Sotirios Alphanis from State Library Victoria last month to chat about diverse #speech data, #language, and the implications of unbridled #data scraping by #AI companies, and how the work we're doing at @mozilladatacollective is providing an ethical alternative for fair data exchange.

    Huge thanks to Dilan Gunawardana from SLVlabs for the significant production effort here.

  2. Today brings Q1 2026 to a close. I-Dog Capital achieved a 24.85% ytd return, or $1,300.65, in Q1. Entered 2026 with ~$7,360 AUM. This was led by far by $GLD & $SLV - SLV selling $60/$78 and GLD selling $400/$442-3. Also lost big on $USO and in the hole a bit on $IBKR but getting back to black.

  3. 'The acting State Library Victoria management are rushing dozens of changes to library operations that will degrade and diminish core library services. These will gut the reference library staff (from 21 down to 10) and replace them with “self service” options; and pour taxpayer money into expensive “digital innovation” projects and “experiences” that few people use.'

  8. CW: History podcast plug

    A new episode of In Those Days is out today (after a break of over a year, whoops).

    Christina Adams and I are joined by husband of the pod, Lincoln Turner. We discuss Lincoln's grandfather's letters to the editor, published in the Canberra Times in the '60s and '70s and digitised in #Trove.

    Was really fun talking about Major Eugene Milton Sanchez who was a big character who had big adventures.

    It was also great to record in State Library Victoria's podcast studio - it's so nice in there and it's free! Almost don't want to tell people about it, because everyone will be there.
