Quick and Meaningless Data Collection Help me collect some data to use for student examples!

Help me collect some meaningless data for student examples! 8 questions of mostly meaningless, unidentifiable variables - pineapple on pizza? marble cake is the best flavor? etc. - for generating student examples. Thanks in advance!

Amazing time at the Leap Scarecrow festival. Loved some of the really 'local humour' like the one of the parish priest meeting the Pope 😂

Holy shit twitter just rolled out audio and video calls and made it the default setting that ANYONE you follow can call you. 

Go into your settings and turn it off: 

Settings—>Privacy/safety—> Direct messages —> disable audio and video calling

Back from an amazing holiday in the Sussex Wealds. Absolutely beautiful and fascinating place to spend a few days sans child. Now I've got a serious case of the Sunday nights!

It was great to hear Irish Tanaiste Micheal Martin speak so elegantly and knowledgeably about the power and importance of primary sources at the Launch of the Japanese Diet Library (the Library of the Japanese Parliament) today at UCC Library

Excel bungling makes top trainee doctors 'unappointable' Mangled mismatch of formats, macros, and VLOOKUP practice hits wannabe anesthetists

Multiple people have sent this excel horror story to me. Excel: unsafe by design. No excuse for using in a professional context to manage data. www.theregister.com/2023/10/12/e...

Since moving to Mastodon and then Bluesky I'm still finding the different audiences and divides between the two a little strange. Hopefully it will settle into something within not too long! Or perhaps that's okay and it's my mindset that needs to get used to it!

Today was the first meeting of the Stanford LitLab, and I thought I'd get into the spooky spirit in a dress of dead DH projects. Can't guarantee it's totally free of editorializing... #DHsewing
