Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.
OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.
I have always loved this 2017 (!) post from Dani Rabaiotti on how/whether to ask a question at a conference. Has anyone seen something similar for how to contribute constructively in department meetings? Asking for a friend. danirabaiotti.wordpress.com/2017/05/15/a...
Parallel map for NEH funding to states. NB that 40% of NEH funding goes directly to the state humanities councils, which do critical community work and which benefits people --culturally and economically-- all across the country. www.neh.gov/impact/states
An NEH Fellowship in 2005 allowed me to write this book, which has informed so much of my teaching about the politics of knowledge.
Cuts to universities aren't just about "woke" and affect Red states too. @sethrockman.bsky.social organized a "teach-in" at the NCAA tourney in Providence. Hear me talk (1 min) about the US gov't as the world's ultimate venture capitalist! @phileil.bsky.social took great notes.
A few photos from the teach-in organized by @sethrockman.bsky.social in downtown Providence this afternoon.
I went to a #MarchMadnessTeachIn today
Congratulations, Ben!

Thank you! 🥰 I am so happy it’s at an assignable price now!
I was so pleased to learn this back when she came to campus in 2006! Lucky Brown to have had her here, even for a short time.
A good mail day! I received my copies of the new paperback edition of Anna Zieglerin and the Lion’s blood. Out Nov. 7, just in time for spring semester classes.
I’m so sorry to hear this. I was fortunate to meet once here at Brown - not only a brilliant and path-breaking scholar, but such a generous person. What a legacy washer leaves
