If you're doing a survey, and you have 'male/female/prefer not to say' then your survey findings are not very precise.

"...the smile holds an influential and revealing place in nineteenth-century children’s literature, with clearly gendered uses and subtle shifts detectable across variations in genre." 🙃 We love this fascinating #dh project from @LiteratureFace & great post by @catherinegay_!😄
We're very lucky to work with two talented @ArtsUnimelb PhD candidates for @LiteratureFace in the 2021 @digitalstudioUM internships program. This blog post by @catherinegay_ discusses some of their historical & #digitalhumanities research on the project: face.hypotheses.org/244

QUTs digital observatory have generously shared their command line tool for understanding how co-ordinated activities on social media like the activity around Victorian premier smouldered until fanned by a politician and citizen journalist #dataviz
Folks messaged me about a new hashtag anti-Andrews campaign trending, so I collected over 67,000 tweets (past 7 days) containing the relevant hashtags and ran the data through a coordinated behaviour detection system A few insights, starting with a network map 🧵

Happy Friday, library lovers! Anyone else love walking through the Old Quad during #goldenhour? ☀️ We think it's the best route from the Baillieu Library to the tram stop after a long day of study @UniMelb @ArtsUnimelb @SciMelb #AcademicTwitter #Research #Melbourne #OldQuad

Meaningful transparency and expanation are steps towards empowerment in participatory data stewardship ... I think I’m going to be a while digesting this important report
📢NEW REPORT proposes a practical framework for participatory data stewardship, which rejects practices of data collection, storage, sharing & use that are opaque/seek to manipulate, in favour of those that empower people. More: adalovelaceinstitute.org/rep… #ParticipatoryData 1/8

Great work from @kentbye in reaching the 1000th Voice of VR. It's essentially an honorary doctorate's worth of content compiled into one episode. A great introduction for anyone getting into the field as well as a recap for those are already working in the area.
🎉Voices of VR Episode #1000🎉 I do a 3-hour deep dive retrospective featuring over 100 of the best answers to Ultimate Potential of VR. It’s a great primer to the range of immediate, near-term, & future applications of XR & the metaverse. voicesofvr.com/1000-voices-o…
