Feeling guilty about the never-ending pile of unread books taking space on your shelf? Just say you are practicing tsundoku!

Wikipedia's tsundoku article is considered a stub, or a very basic description of the topic. Consider improving it with reliable sources ➡️ w.wiki/7vhv

Terwijl het deze campagne nauwelijks gaat over onderwijs, stemde vandaag een rechtse meerderheid in de Eerste Kamer in met nieuwe bezuinigingen.

Weer met hulp van het CDA.

Hopelijk neemt iedereen met hart voor onderwijs of opgroeiende kinderen, dit mee in het stemhokje.

+972 Magazine is joining hundreds of media outlets in calling for the protection of Palestinian journalists in Gaza, an end to impunity for Israeli crimes against Gaza’s reporters and that foreign press be granted independent access to the territory.

At any protest, there are folks who hang back, who hover around the edges, who are moved enough to be there but for any of a thousand reasons, are uncomfortable with crowds. I spent some time with them yesterday.

hands off, the fringes
Like a million other concerned people, I attended the local Hands Off! protest yesterday. I wasn’t sure how many people would show up, considering it was a cold, blustery day (about 42F with …

Met hun honger naar data brengen AI-bedrijven Wikipedia in het nauw
Dat steeds meer ménsen de site van Wikipedia bezoeken kan de online encyclopedie wel aan. Maar de stormloop van bots van AI-bedrijven op Wikipedia en zustersite Wikimedia Commons zorgt voor problemen.

Stel, we geven geen soja en graan meer aan ons vee, maar eten het zelf op.

Bij @ftm.nl maakte we een rekensommetje waarbij me de schellen van de ogen vielen: elke dag vernietigt het Nederlandse vee 56 miljard kilocalorieën. Genoeg om 25 miljoen mensen mee te voeden.

In 4 grafieken: hoe Nederland miljoenen extra mensen kan voeden, als we stoppen met de vee-industrie
Politici van de BoerBurgerBeweging waarschuwen dat krimp van de veestapel de (internationale) voedselzekerheid bedreigt. Klopt dat wel? Uit een analyse van Follow the Money blijkt het tegenovergesteld...

Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs.

However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

At a time when many social-media sites have abandoned their safeguards against mis- and disinformation, Wikipedia is a bastion of transparency and accessible knowledge. So maybe it should come as no surprise that Elon Musk has been attacking it.
Elon Musk Also Has a Problem with Wikipedia
Lately, Musk’s beef has merged with a general conviction on the right that the site is biased against conservatives.

Anyone know what the licensing deal is for this collab between the Bodleian and OpenAI? Will public domain things actually become public? or is this a repeat of Google Books where they're in reality locked down by contractual arrangement w/ the digitizer? www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/about/media/...

In het machtsvacuüm dat de VS onder Trump aan het creëren is zal het niet makkelijk zijn voor Nederland om een goede weg daarin te vinden. Des te belangrijker wordt regiokennis. Om de veiligheid, welvaart en toekomst van ons land te behouden zijn de regiostudies cruciaal. #WOinActie #DitMoetStoppen

Nog even over Joop van den Ende. Want het blijft toch wel opmerkelijk als zo’n machtige en invloedrijke Nederlandse ondernemer zich op zo’n uitgesproken manier mengt in het debat.

The part of George Orwell’s 1984 that everyone forgets is how the music and publishing industries have been replaced by a machine that spits out songs and bad novels “without any human intervention.” The goal is to keep you from ever having to think.

Here is a list of library-related people and organizations I have come across on BlueSky which I hope will be useful to others. I like having a tab just for library conversations. Let me know if you want to be added to the list.
