You know why we Germans are so pedantic about data protection? Someone around 90 years ago went through all records available, selected people with certain criteria, with the help of IBM, and then killed them all. We don't want to be on any list. And now the US Gov and Musk is trying to get […]

Goede beslissing van NWO om met Twitter te stoppen per vandaag, maar de website heeft nog even wel een update nodig om geen mixed signals uit te stralen. Wellicht vervangen door linkjes naar een officieel NWO account op de fediverse op bv https://social.edu.nl/ ? #nwo #twexit

In the scope of the Globalise project we've worked on automatic language identification of letters that were shipped back home by the VOC (East India Company) from 1610 to 1796, as preserved by the National Archive. They've been digitised, and automatically transcribed. While the vast majority […]

For the first time ever I actually resorted to using an LLM (llama3.1, offline) to write a simple function for me, in lua (because I don't know lua). I have to admit it worked out nicely though I do feel a bit dirty now... #llm #ai

Today the US decides whether to take a sharp right turn towards full-on fascism or hobble on on the bumpy road of flawed democracy. US citizens are the only ones who can vote (if even; voter suppression), but their vote has large implications for the rest of us unfortunately (Ukraine and the […]
