Is data-driven learning dead? Long live DDL! Interesting plenary on learning, ecologies and corpus by Pascual Pérez Paredes @ #cl2025

What a marvelous plenary by Laurence Anthony — a true celebration of past, present, and future in trusting the text. Can’t wait to put the new local #OpenWeighs-powered AntConc through its paces! #cl2025 #trustthetext

Sampling the welcome breeze before the afternoon session @cl2025.co.uk Spoilt for choice with seven parallel talks - for me it’s the Methods panel, with talks on children’s storybooks, keyness, and corpus semiotics 📚🎓 #cl2025

Hi @cl2025.co.uk! Could you encourage #cl2025 attendees to follow @ap.brid.gy so we can connect from #Mastodon and the #Fediverse? Just follow that account — it bridges the gap so we can all chat, share, and have fun across platforms! Let’s make #CL2025 truly connected.

At the opening ceremony of #cl2025 at Aston University. A whole bunch of #CorpusLinguistics professionals here—if anyone can parse a good time, it should be this crowd!

My new paper is out! I looked into how economic editorials structure their arguments and express opinions. Lots of criticism, subtle emotion, and careful storytelling. Language does a lot of heavy lifting here. #CorpusLinguistics #DiscourseAnalysis […]

Meloni chose Il Presidente as her official title. Why do many Italian women still opt for masculine professional titles? The first of our Italian #CorpusLinguistics jobs on #gender—co-authored with Simona Frabotta—is out! 🔗 https://aisberg.unibg.it/handle/10446/298488

Remember Ted Mosby's first class? That was me today. 😅 Wrong classroom. Cool students. Good laugh.

"Libertad para lo mío" Quien tenga un ratito de lectura dominical, recomiendo la entrevista a Laura Camargo para @ElSaltoDiario Un fenómeno muy interesante es el secuestro semántico de la palabra libertad por parte de los libertarios. Milei y Ayuso lo están resignificando y trabajan un concepto […]

If you got some bandwidth to share and want to help archive the web, set up an ArchiveTeam Warrior docker. It will download stuff and upload it to the Internet Archive. They and I recommend to use "ArchiveTeam's Choice", but you can set it work on specific […] [Original post on social.luca.run]

Esto es una gran noticia. La instancia de la @ujiuniversitat ya ha abierto la posibilidad para que su personal pueda abrir perfil en #Mastodon, dentro de su propio servidor. Espero que haya contagio y que la Universidad de #Málaga se anime. #vamonosjuntas

The French #helloquittex campaign to move away from X / Meta is thriving and #academia has taken a step further and started creating their own #Mastodon instance 🤗. Bienvenu-e-s!! https://universites.social

Hola @saraincera! Gracias por seguirme!

After some German unions yesterday, more than 60 (!!) German universities left #X/#Twitter today. Some are already active on #Mastodon. They justified this with their commitment to fact-based communication and against antidemocratic forces. Values that […] [Original post on social.heise.de]

Excellent summary by Ben Brubaker. My thought is that if Transformers learn English better than impossible languages, while earlier neural networks did not, perhaps it is because Transformers contain biases toward human grammar that derive from their original design for the specific task of […]

Bill Labov has passed away at 97. He said his favorite daydream was imagining people learning something of his in a distant library, just as he did from others. From him, I learned that evaluation is the primary means of discourse. It is through evaluation that the narrator can express the […]

Ha muerto Bill #labov a los 97. Su ensoñamiento diurno favorito decía era imaginar a la gente aprendiendo algo suyo en una biblioteca lejana de la misma forma que él lo hacía de otras personas. De él aprendí que la evaluación sería el medio principal del discurso. Gracias a ella que el narrador […]

I think I learned two essential things from reading Labov: that linguistic changes are accidental, not directed, and that it is not true that every word has its own history (i.e., that phonetic laws are real). A true giant of contemporary linguistics. @linguistics #linguistics

Acaba de salir mi reseña de The Discursive Construction of Economic Inequality, editado por Gómez-Jiménez y Toolan, en el número 70 de la revista Miscelánea. Es un antídoto contra el fatalismo: demuestra que nada es irreversible. Si el discurso pudo evolucionar en el pasado para peor, también […]

Today a received an email with a non-blind peer review petition from a journal, with the author in CC. It happened to be an old friend I'm very comforatble with. How queer is that? Did you have any experience like this? What are the advantages? #academia #publishing #academicchatter

Just finished a #cads paper on the #olympics media treatment of female athletes. Now the void. Staring into the void.
