Crowd Control, or: How leaving your academic identity behind can sometimes work wonders in our understanding of society
+++ NEW ARTICLE +++
Today, I'm exploring a deeply-held conviction of many #dataScientist|s and sociologists: representing data as a table.
Here is why we need to stop that:
New article on how #deeplearning models can sometimes look more like witchcraft than solid computer science. #machinelearning
Ich lamentiere ja schon länger, dass #DigitaleIdentitäten der nächste große Horror sind, den Bundesregierung und EU für uns bereit halten.
Aber @Lilith hat jetzt aufgeschrieben und großartig erklärt, was das Problem dabei ist.
Der eine Text, den Ihr bitte, bitte lest:
"DAS ENDE VON “ROE” IST NUR DER ANFANG VOM ENDE
Gleichgeschlechtliche Ehe, die Kriminalisierung von Homosexualität und das Ende des Rechts auf Verhütungsmittel stehen als nächstes auf der christlich-nationalistischen Wunschliste."

Wenn du dich den ganzen Monat auf die angekündigte Lohnerhöhung ab April für studentische Hilfskräfte gefreut hast, weil in Hessen erstmals für Hiwis Lohn ausgehandelt wurde während den Tarifverhandlungen. War vorher nicht so, laut dem hess. Hochschulgesetz und dem vorherigen Tarifvertrag fallen stud Hilfskräfte nicht in den Tariflohn.
Und dann feststellen musst, dass sie dafür die Sonderzahlung gestrichen haben. Macht bei mir dann jetzt fast garnix aus, ein paar wenige Kröten sind es mehr, aber nicht so viel wie angenommen, anfangen kann ich damit nix.
Voll toll, so ne Aushandlung auf 12 € Stdlohn, wenn real nix davon bleibt, weil anderes dafür gestrichen wird. 😤
Ich hatte ein ganz kleines bisschen die Hoffnung, dass sich Unis nicht wie Arbeitgeber in der freien Wirtschaft verhalten. Hab ich wohl falsch gedacht.... 😕
Hauptsache, mann spart an den untersten Rädchen im Getriebe....wie überall 🙄

I am sometimes thinking about journals where I could publish my results. Out of curiosity, because I once again got a predatory journal's email, I googled and I found "Beall's List" (of potentially predatory journals), which has been discontinued but has some successors.
Not *that* academic, but if you receive many spam mails, you may find this interesting: An article on how I almost got scammed today via email. Including some tips on how to prevent that!
Btw since this is an academic space, I feel very happy telling you all about an event our institute hosts.
We have a weekly free lecture/seminar that everyone can attend via Zoom. We have a lot of exciting guests from Analytical #Sociology and Computational Social Sciences.
Today in about 7 hours (15:30 CEST) we'll welcome James Evans. To participate, just send an informal email to our admin Madelene; her email is on the events page here:

I'm a big fan of the fact that here, the content seems much more … curated. It's not an easy "just scroll past" timeline as we have on Twitter, you have to actually read things. And once you read them, they're most of the time interesting! That's definitely an improvement over Twitter. A large one!
I mentioned traffic nuisances earlier, right? Here’s directly one example.
Normally, everything in Sweden is 100% digital and app-based. This means easy, no-interaction service. However, for some reason, Stockholm Lokaltrafiken’s app stopped processing payments (the card is confirmed working).
Paying sans app gives you this medieval piece of paper, without the handy QR code so that you must interact with an officer at the metro entrance.
Therefore: ALWAYS make sure you have proper backup.
I'll be talking about the pandoc-based, open source journal publishing pipeline we built for JOSS at the upcoming JATS-Con on May 3.

Registration is still open.

One big benefit of the Swedish higher education system is that you can freely move between universities. Although I’m not enrolled there, I can currently take a course in political sociology at Stockholm University — no hassle involved (except the usual traffic nuisances)
Hey, I am Hendrik, a PhD-student at Linköping University (Sweden). I work a lot with Natural Language Processing and Deep Learning. I am currently charting the neoliberal turn in U.S. Congress by looking at the representatives' language. Happy to be here! #introductions
