My impression with bluesky is that a lot of things exist but there is just no way of finding them.

It seems to me, this view underestimates how long it takes to understand how the real training process in all its details works. Without open source projects reporting about their experience a lot of crucial knowledge would be missing on this practical level. We need this tradition of knowledge.

Google quietly updated their ngrams viewer again this year. The books used appear to be extremely different yet again--the rate of the words "she said" are about 60% what they were in the 20th century compared to the 2019 release, and just 20% compared to 2009. But there's a catch:

At the intro meeting at #CHR2024 for the new Computational Humanities Research Journal.

Q: If a piece is published at the conference, does it also appear in the journal?

A: No, need to submit separately. Journal articles should be a bit longer, maybe include more experiments.

That is so useful. Thanks a lot!
Ok, we just tabularised the @spiegel.de literary canon 1924–2024 & enriched it with #Wikidata, #Goodreads, GND IDs for authors and works. Feel free to toy around with it. More to follow soonish…
