Things I said this morning: “all that AIM back in the day probably set me up well for Teams” :ohno:
New blog post -- how powerlifting and mastodon made me learn ffmpeg: https://ruthtillman.com/post/learning-ffmpeg/
Good evening nerds! I have been using OpenRefine for ...over a decade now and I did not realize that there was such an easy way to repeat operations across projects. It's easiest when you're working on spreadsheets which all have the columns and needs.
I have an overview, a walkthrough with screenshots, AND I made you some sample data!
Time for my next meeting: Symphony Squad 2: The Rise of Alma
#OpenRefine has an API! Not just a recon API, a straight up interact-with-projects API. https://ruthtillman.com/post/openrefine-api-basics/
I had only seen it in passing before, but my recent project prompted me to investigate. This post is just a little taste, since I don't know it well, but it might be a starting point for others who can think of a good use case in their own work.
Jess asked me to boost this to glammr.us main -- they're looking for archives-focued editors/peer reviewers for a GLAM journal with a justice orientation -- see more in the original post!
