“Pairing free buses with paid parking says we value people in motion more than cars at rest,” writes Nicolas Rohatyn.

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city. We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

Cannot wait to share this with all of you!

Hands down, the best professional decision I made last year was to work with @performant.bsky.social. Could not love collaborating with @jamiefolsom.bsky.social @anindita.org and their amazing colleagues more. 😍

Honoring our collaborators @performant.bsky.social, whose rigor and skill helped make Native Bound Unbound possible. They built a platform that connects people, stories, and places across time—a living archive built with care, precision, and imagination. #NativeBoundUnbound #DigitalHumanities

Not unexpected, but scary/impressive/fascinating... Just-in-Time Malware that use LLMs during execution, to "dynamically generate malicious scripts, obfuscate their own code to evade detection, and leverage AI models to create malicious functions on demand."

A project that my company @performant.bsky.social has been working on for multiple years launches tomorrow! Launch events will be live-streamed on Saturday and Sunday at 1 pm MT. It's been such a privilege to work with the Native Bound Unbound team. They describe the project as follows... (1/4) #DH

Good news about the cutting-edge AI tools from the $3-trillion-dollar company.

With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

We’re thrilled to be a Pelagios Partner. Great working with such a smart, generous group of collaborators.

We feel so lucky to work with you, Roopsi! Data essays (among other great ideas you imagined) have become key features available to future projects.

Working with Performant over the last year has been dreamy! I had wanted to collaborate with them for a while, and it’s been as awesome as I hoped. (And this link has a tiny sneak preview, aka screenshots, of what we’ve been up to.)

Pelagios is proud to count Performant & Rainer as Partners. Together, we are trying to build methods/tools for annotating & structuring data "in the round", where different Partners contribute knowledge, resource and/or funding, towards distributive resilience. Join our community of practice #dh2025

The whole suite is available at affordably for those who can’t or don’t want to self-host, and the final product of a project can be built as a static website, hostable freely, and independently of the software (static images, maps and search coming soon) #dh2025 #minicomp

Performant Studio is a set of smaller sharper tools which you can use together or separately, and which integrate nicely with others, including Recogito Studio, the TEI and IIIF annotation platform we built in collaboration with @aboutgeo.bsky.social, University of Bonn and others. #dh2025

Alongside the software, we’ve started a series of how-tos, describing things you can do with Performant Studio, with or without our help. The first is “How to Publish a Digital Edition”: www.performantsoftware.com/solutions/ed...

We’re pleased to announce Performant Studio, an open source, standards-based software toolkit for #digitalhumanities projects. Ask @nicklaiacona.bsky.social about it if you see him at #dh2025! www.performantsoftware.com/studio/

Not at #DH2025 this year but following from afar. If you’re there, check out work from friends & partners: • @jamiefolsom.bsky.social on #RecogitoStudio at the DHTech this afternoon. • Kathryn Wilson on #DigitalCamerarius. (Ok, didn’t contribute much, but I think my logo made it onto the poster 😉)

Another day has passed and nothing from the acting head of FEMA in a disaster that killed 100+ people and I haven’t seen any journalists ask the administration where he is…??? Knowing who is currently leading FEMA strikes me as something the public has a vital interest in…

Thanks! We had a small but terrific group and a good discussion — this really is the best conference. I’ll see you at the Care Fair tomorrow :)

This afternoon / evening, @kelleykreitz.bsky.social & I are presenting as part of the #ACH2025 panel 13A: Papers: Advocacy and/in the Classroom (5:30-6:45 pm EDT). We'll talk about critical mapping in the classroom. Come chat with us about data, narratives, and counter-mapping.

Who would set a country's future on fire? The Trump regime has already plunged America into a distinction that has only been earned by two previous governments, which happen to be the two most murderous regimes in human history.

Good news! The deadline to register for the @adho-org.bsky.social #DH2025 conference, hosted by NOVA-FCSH, has been extended to June 9. Visit our website (dh2025.adho.org) to access all the essential information and stay up to date with the latest details!

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

I have 2 incoming PhD students who can't find funding to study in the UK. (In the US PhD students are generally funded; this UK wild west is unconscionable.) Long shot, but does anyone know of any funding opportunities for PhD students in digital humanities, AI, comp linguistics, comp soc sci, etc?

We're living through the Who Cares Era, where completely disposable things are shoddily produced for people to mostly ignore, while the government stomps its uncaring boot on our necks. But there's an easy way to fight back: Care. I wrote about it: dansinker.com/posts/2025-0...

Yay! I love seeing examples of #RecogitoStudio in the wild! ❤️ CC @performant.bsky.social @jamiefolsom.bsky.social @anindita.org

“I am directing the Bureau of Prisons to use all 850 Joann locations to house America’s most ruthless and violent Offenders,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social theonion.com/trump-v...

The Enlightenment was fun while it lasted

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court permanently BLOCKS Trump executive order targeting my former law firm, Perkins Coie. Executive Order 14230, entitled “Addressing Risks from Perkins Coie LLP,” violates the First, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution and is therefore null and void

“Why teach Shakespeare? How is a bunch of old literature even relevant to the real world?”

👀 Stunning poll data coming out of - checks notes - Georgia: - 51.9% disapprove of Trump on immigration - 56.9% disapprove of Trump’s attacks on DEI - 80.9% want Trump to follow court’s orders This ought to make every Republican bootlickers in GA & all over nervous www.axios.com/local/atlant...

Trump administration settles with Maine over funding freeze after dispute over trans athletes

Just deranged. This was a *solved* problem.

JUST IN: Judge HOWELL rules forcefully in favor of Perkins Coie against Trump's punitive executive order, comparing him to a Shakespearean character who famously called to "kill all the lawyers" in order to amass power. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

When you’re getting lectured by the <checks notes> German government on failing to account for the dangers posed by right-wing extremism, it might be time to take a seat.
