Can see already that 2024 is going to be a boring year for those of us who never cared for Mickey Mouse in the first place.

We're organizing a small in-person workshop about federated/decentralized social media at Princeton.

https://dsmw.cs.princeton.edu/

We're interested in bringing folks who develop fediverse tech or admins that manage active Mastodon instances. We have some travel funding.

Ping me if interested, and please boost 🚀 to reach more people.

@bkeegan Sometimes (often) I wish you would just make a “all the things you need to live in Boulder” knowledge list cuz you slow drip things like Bouldercast.

My dog just found two bones in the woods and let me tell you there is not a more satisfied creature on this planet.

are there any good books about how recorded music changed (or not) what it means to be a musician? even in my lifetime, i've seen the move from the everyperson musician to fewer and fewer people being musicians and definitely fewer people casually playing music for others.

@nancybaym@aoir.social avatar

@jbigham Yes! Tom Turino has a classic about this “Music as Social Life”. I write about it too in “Playing to the Crowd” drawing heavily on Turino and others.

I too dressed as a skeleton last night but it was chilly and I put my muscles and organs and flesh on over it and then no one could tell.

I wanted to go to this week and see all my friends! Phily is so close, after all! Instead I'm at home, sparing you the cold I picked up at :( Sending hugs to all from behind this bowl of chicken soup, with fervent hopes to join in another time.

Hi peeps! Our group at Microsoft Research in Cambridge Mass is actively seeking a predoc research assistant and very soon we will be looking for a postdoc and several PhD interns. Several of us will be there - @tarleton @ZoeGlatt and me for example. Please feel welcome to ask us about these opportunities!

Too often we approach issues of equity and inclusion through the lens of harm reduction. That's essential, but it's the minimal bar for acceptable tech, not an end goal.

What would AI that spurs joy from within minoritized communities look like? This exciting new fellowship sponsored by MSR with Edinburgh's BRAID project seeks a creative UK-based scholar to collaborate with me and our team to help us imagine.

Please spread the word

I don’t want to get too mystical, but today we ran across a groundhog in a field, which would be pretty normal, but this one was completely white. According to the internet this happens like four times in a century and I am not even making that up.

@andresmh According to a local paper in Pennsylvania a trapper got one in its trap around 2014 and it had been 25ish years since one had last been seen.

Doggo would like to remind you that anywhere can be a cozy comfy spot if you choose to make it so.
