#permacomputing and #minimalcomputing share similarities! Time to get to know each other? #digitalhumanities #dh

Today, I was extremely tired, nothing weird as the work week was quite tough. Nevertheless, I had some space to read about #plan9 it simply is an interesting OS. I am now playing around with #troff a bit. I really see potential to explore Plan 9 under a #minimalcomputing perspective #dh #blog

📜 CfP: Minimal Computing and the Middle Ages, IMC2026, Leeds (UK)

The session will explore the intersection of #minimalcomputing and #medieval studies for sustainable, accessible, and ethical approaches to #digital scholarship in a time of limited resources.

📅Deadline: 23:59 BST, 10/09/25

Scrolling causally through the HTML4 specification at the moment, we sometimes do forget how much we actually are able to create with pure compliant HTML4. #html #web #www #minimalcomputing

Really useful read, and I'm particularly grateful to be introduced to the #MinimalComputing approach, Roopika.

I will use it as a learning opportunity. I teach things like this as entry-points, but I always tell students to go beyond entry points precisely because of this. #minimalcomputing forever.

Rebuilt my neovim config (and added tmux!) from what I could salvage after nuking everything. Feels way cleaner now.
Sometimes a reset is all it takes.

Ultimately, the debate centers on whether projects like Sectorlisp are valuable explorations of minimal computing or merely niche curiosities. Can genuinely useful programs or deep insights emerge from Lisp in ~510 bytes? #minimalcomputing 5/5

In the editorial, @roopikarisam.bsky.social and @readywriting.bsky.social problematise Big EdTech, with a nod to the pre-digital history of #edtech. They foreground the leading question of #minimalcomputing: What do we need? And ask what this means for education. #DH

🟨Volume 49, Issue 5 (2024) of LMT🟪

Guest editors @roopikarisam.bsky.social and
@readywriting.bsky.social present how #minimalcomputing offers an alternative to the narrative of technological solutionism that drives Big EdTech.

Pi Day isn't just for bakers (🥧) or mathematicians (π)!

Join the @dh-researchhub.bsky.social this Thursday to explore how Raspberry Pi computers can be used for humanities research.
