Joel Chan: Sustainable Authorship Models for a Discourse-Based Scholarly Communication Infrastructure · Series 1.2: Business of Knowing. Today's scholarly communication infrastructure is not designed to support scholarly synthesis. When gathering sources for a literature review, researchers need to answer questions about theories, lines of evidence, and claims, and how they inform, support, or oppose each other. This information cannot be found simply in the titles of research papers, in groupings of papers by area, or even in citation or authorship networks. (more)

Julie d'Aubigny (French: [ʒyli dobiɲi]; 1670/1673–1707), better known as Mademoiselle Maupin or La Maupin, was a 17th-century opera singer. Little is known for certain about her life; her tumultuous career and flamboyant lifestyle were the subject of gossip, rumor, and colourful stories in her own time, and inspired numerous fictional and semi-fictional portrayals afterwards. Théophile Gautier loosely based the title character, Madeleine de Maupin, of his novel Mademoiselle de Maupin (1835) on her... She retired from the Paris opera in 1705 and took refuge in a convent, probably in Provence, where she is believed to have died in 1707 at the age of 33. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_d%27Aubigny (more)

Erik Hoel: The Semantic Apocalypse. Now that real AI is actually here driving cars, writing poetry, making music, and filtering your spam, the detail that has made all the difference is that these machines don’t think like us. In fact, these “intelligences” probably don’t think at all. They fit neither of the archetypal roles. What they definitely do, however, is copy. This piece irked me. Thread (more)

Design For Community interview with Howard Rheingold. Virtual Community is a subset of Online Social Network... If you go back to the earliest visions of Douglas Engelbart in 1963, in his paper on augmenting human intellect, he was talking about a system that consisted of humans using methodology, language, artifact and training. Human interface is only part of the artifact part of this. There's the language and methodology and the training. You don't go out and buy that when you buy a box. How is that going to be delivered?
