Nichts hält uns bei der @MaxWeberStiftung vom Arbeiten für offene Geisteswissenschaften weltweit vor Ort ab: @NanetteRissler trotz Arm in Gips führt uns in offene Infrastrukturen ein: was ist da, was kann man nachnutzen? #DHTbilisi

Can your analysis be reproduced by someone else? By you, in six months?

Reproducibility isn't just about publishing code — it's about documenting your environment, your data, and every decision along the way.

Small steps: use virtual environments, pin your dependencies, write a README.

From the "UVA Archival AI Protocol":
"Irreversible models do not get access unless item-level provenance and meaningful attribution can be demonstrated in practice, and the archival organization retains contractually enforceable control to stop further use."
Very thoughtful response of University of Virginia Library colleagues to the threat of commercial takeover of our cultural heritage. Please listen to librarians. 😘 https://library.virginia.edu/news/2026/protecting-what-remains-introducing-uva-archival-ai-protocol

I‘m just reviewing a couple of papers and it seems that nowadays everybody is using „carefully designed prompts“ 😳

🥨 Bayerischer Microsoft-Deal wackelt:

Der bayerische Digitalminister fordert angesichts der veränderten geopolitischen Lage eine Neubewertung des geplanten Milliardendeals der bayerischen Staatsregierung mit Microsoft.

Gemeinsam mit anderen IT-Unternehmen, Organisationen und Experten aus Bayern fordern wir als Teil der Heinlein Gruppe schon lange ein Umdenken: https://www.heinlein.group/offener-brief-freistaat-bayern-will-milliarde-fuer-microsoft-ausgeben/

Die Chance für eine souveräne Zukunft ohne Abhängigkeiten von Digitalimporten muss jetzt genutzt werden!

Future art historians will need strong hybrid skills—critical theory plus computational methods—to research, curate, and preserve digital and data-driven visual culture.

The University of St Andrews is offering a fully funded PhD scholarship in Digital Art History and Digital-born Art, open to UK, EU, and international students (deadline: 30 March 2026).

What You Hack Is What You Mean: My #TEI talk at #39C3 will elaborate on how to turn literature, research, and even hacker lore into machine-readable, remixable, and sustainable data by using the guidelines of the Text Encoding Initiative. https://events.ccc.de/congress/2025/hub/de/event/detail/what-you-hack-is-what-you-mean-35-years-of-wiring-sense-into-text #DigitalHumanities #XML

The largest fundamental science agency in Europe will save €1.4 million annually by breaking free from Clavariate Analytics' commercial databases of references and citations.

Starting January 1st 2026, the CNRS will stop subscribing from the Web of Science, along with the Core Collection and Journal Citation Reports.

"We have worked for free to lock ourselves collectively into a paid system", one head of the CNRS explains - but no more! 🎉

The Committee for Open Science is proud to announce the publication of a preprint that demonstrates, for the first time on a scale of a country, France, that #Openscience could increase the chances for researchers to be cited. The authors chose to study France, a leading country in monitoring Open Science, and to use data from the French Open Science Monitor, that covers the entire country since 2018.

I'm not anti-LLM. I'm just pro-thinking.

Everyone I know who is REALLY into AI uses it for reading EVERYTHING longer than 1000 words.

It's the mental equivalent of eating only smoothies, because they go down easier.

I say this with love: reading is thinking.

Stop letting slop think for you.
