Falls jemand in Münster und umzu zufällig grad einen Sekretär gebrauchen kann: Ich verschenke diesen hier meiner Großmutter, da er leider bei uns nicht mehr reinpasst. Sehr stabil, die vier Schubladen und die Ablagefächer oben sind sehr geräumig. Über die […] [Original post on openbiblio.social]

My dissertation is online: doi.org/10.25593/ope... It presents TILDe (Traceable Interpretation through Linguistic Description), a meta-framework for corpus-assisted discourse studies. The starting point: which patterns you find in a discourse depends on how you enter the corpus.

Angry hot take: If you are an expensive "accessibility professional", and the reports you're generating and sending to your clients are inaccessible, you should just get a new job. There is no hope for you. I've encountered that three times, from three different people, this month. WTF? #a11y […]

The reason AI is so sketchy is because some of you incorrectly identified motorcycles.
This looks like a really intersting job for a techy cat lover. https://careers.cats.org.uk/job/851046 @astronomerritt maybe for you?
Does anyone know of projects which have encoded a linguistic grammar in TEI format? I have been able to find documentation about and various examples of dictionaries and corpora, but so far no grammars. #TEI
