Three lessons out of four cancelled today. Fortunately I still get paid for two of them. And even more fortunately, the one that went ahead was my "Child poverty in the UK and Poland" one, and it went very well. So pleased.
Dear #DigitalHumanities and #corpus_linguistics colleagues: In order to help a colleague with a project application that may also help a project I'm involved with, I'm wondering what, if any, arguments there are for #part-of-speech-tagging as an accessibility feature? Does anyone have an example of how this can help people with non-normative functionalities?
Boosts with other hashtags appreciated. @corpuslinguistics @linguistics

Thank you; it seems I was unclear. I meant as in helping for example blind people in some way that I simply cannot think of because I do not have that issue myself.
Last week, there was a story from AFP about AI "deceiving" people. Just now I've listened to an excellent podcast co-hosted by Prof. @emilymbender looking at the peer-reviewed academic paper that was the basis for this story. It is very insightful, and an excellent remedy to the AI hype.
EDIT: It's the May 20 episode. https://www.twitch.tv/dair_institute
To those of you using apps for keeping track of and rating or reviewing beers: any experience with BeerHive? The UI looks nicer and more useful than Untappd, but the user base (and beer database) is still tiny... #craftbeer#BeerHive#Untappd#BeerReview#beersofmastodon@beersofmastodon
