And the award for the best design and user experience in the button department of public transport comes to the trinity of buttons in Prague trams. A fun fact: if you want to get out of the tram with a baby carriage, you have to press the small black button twice.

@leaflet.pub Is there a possibility how to move an existing leaflet doc to a publication? :)

Is there some easy to use local LLM for translating PDFs/documents? Ideally for Mac? :)

To assimilate or not to assimilate – that is a late medieval palaeographical question!

I went through the terms and conditions of #transkribus to make my previous post more substantiated and clearer. #atr #htr

Me at IMC Leeds. #digitalhumanities #middleages

I wonder how accurrate these replies about HTR technology are. To be honest, I find LLMs quite useful for explaining this type of information but - of course - it is difficult for me to verify.

I have to start a conspiration theory that #imcleeds has purposefully bad coffee at the conference, so you buy coffee from coffee shops on the campus.

I was too quick with my hopes. Eurostart train broke down. Delay... at least two hours? But who knows. Last announcement was in French and Flemish... Anybody else travelling to IMC Leeds stranded in Brussels? :D

Travelling by train from Vienna to IMC Leeds is always an adventure — this time with three train changes! 😲 So far, the journey is going well (I'm currently traveling from Amsterdam to Paris).

Considering switching from Dropbox to something else (privacy reasons) and I found out about pCloud. Do you have experience with it? :)

On the afternoon of Saturday 14 June I'll be speaking about the amazing treasure trove that is the Latin literature of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at London's Skaryna Library. You can book a place over on fb: www.facebook.com/events/17707...

Today I learned that in 1984, they were preparing a digital edition of a text by typing it on a typewriter with an OCR-R font and then scanning it. (Hans Fix: Production and usage of a machine-readable manuscript).

The #ANTIDOTE expert workshop on 'Scale and Scalability' is now underway at @tcddublin.bsky.social. This week, we cover data scraping & wrangling, OCR & HTR, corpus linguistics & visualisation techniques for historical texts and manuscripts. antidote.hi.is #DH #medievalsky

My fascination with this inscription in Prague will never cease. I refuse to Google why the image looks so strange. :) I don’t want to shatter the magic.

Starting now!

If you are in Vienna on Wednesday and interested in digital humanities, then this :).

Do you use a word "analogue" as the opposite of "digital"? Like "in the analogue world", "an analogue object" etc.? If so, why? :)

I knew about "diplomatic", "semi-diplomatic" and "hyper-diplomatic" editions, but today I learned that there are also "quasi-diplomatic" transcriptions. From the presentation by David J. Birnbaum.

I really want tabs for Windows, i.e. grouping of any applications under tabs. Until now, I knew about two products allowing this: Groupy and TidyTabs. And they are okayish. Now I learned that ancyWM actually has the same functionality and it works better! :) apps.microsoft.com/detail/9p174...

Is there a way how to easily find products (like a toaster) that are produced fully in the EU?

I can report that #koreader on #remarkable 1 is really quick! I am quite surprised. And it is nice to have an option to directly add comments in PDFs.

I have installed Koreader on Remarkable and I feel a little bit dirty :D.

I lived there during my Erasmus many years ago. And it was nice experience for a student (!). There were loud parties in the whole complex and loud tram behind my window. And an anarchist (?) camp in front of the tram stop that they forcibly removed at one moment. Memories. :)
