Social media is no longer social. Most of it is passive viewing of videos and pictures from people we've never met. But we're still studying social media like it's 2010. We've entered the post-social media era — and research needs to catch up. osf.io/preprints/so... preprint w/ Richard Rogers

Just released mori 0.1.0 on CRAN — a new R package for shared memory across processes. Parallel R no longer has to mean duplicating your dataset in every worker's RAM. opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-04... 🧵 1/3

mori: Shared memory for R objects

mori is a new R package for sharing R objects across processes via OS-level shared memory. Parallel workers get zero-copy, lazy ALTREP access to the same physical pages — share once, read anywhere.

After 3 packed days of research, workshops, and networking, #COMPTEXT2025 has officially wrapped up! In 48+ panels, 220+ presentations, and a full day of tutorials we received a great review of the state-of-the-art in our field. Thanks everyone and see you next year!

All praise to @seanhp.bsky.social @isaacbravo.bsky.social for producing and presenting this fantastic paper! Check out the results and the R adaptation of CodeCarbon on linktr.ee/comptext25

I have always suspected that large language models need energy. But courtesy of long-needed research by @clint0475.bsky.social @patrickparschan.bsky.social and colleagues we now have more solid evidence of the impact of using them for research purposes #COMPTEXT2025

Excellent presentation by @seanhp.bsky.social and @isaacbravo.bsky.social about the environmental impact of using LLMs for text analysis and the tradeoff between accuracy and sustainability. Now I‘m quite afraid to calculate the footprint of my research. 🙈 #COMPTEXT2025

Inspired and grateful after discussing our work on minimum cost multicuts for visual frame detection. Thanks to everyone at #wacv25! @margretkeuper.bsky.social @isaacbravo.bsky.social @stefaniewalter.bsky.social @keuper-labs.bsky.social

I spy with my little eye... a WACV paper. We investigate visual frame detection using Minimum Cost Multicut clustering. Check out the paper to see which embedding space works best: arxiv.org/pdf/2412.01296 @isaacbravo.bsky.social @stefaniewalter.bsky.social @margretkeuper.bsky.social
