And speaking of Multilingual Digital Humanities, and life during a plague - we've just helped launch a platform for transcribing manuscripts of anti-plague tracts - ancient tracts intended to be recited when plagues struck.

@quinnanya @kalikabali So much archeological source material is written right to left. The Dead Sea Scrolls! Almost all need custom tools to work with them.
#DHBenelux2020 is fabulous so far!
This is virtual conference done right. Breakout sessions for people to continue discussions. A social hour at the end of the day for networking. And, they sent me a custom zoom background with achievement badges!
Can't wait to use it tonight!!
@jedwardwalters Congratulations! Please feel free to reach out if you need a consult on the technical or research software aspect of your project. Best of luck!
Always a thrill to see a project we've worked on get some attention in the press. Scripta Qumranica Electronica, an digital platform for editing the Dead Sea Scrolls, is one of our favorite projects.

@smdiehl @khinsen You've just described the best reason to use outside Research Software Engineers. We can work alongside the grad students, to create code that's sustainable, documented, and usable long after the student moves on.
(I'm totally using abandonware in my marketing from now on!)
Silver lining in the current situation, we're able to attend many virtual conferences online that we'd never be able to attend in person. Today, we're watching the Dead Sea Scrolls conference #NYUvirtualDSS , AND the Clinical Informatics Conference #CIC20#researchsoftware
@WomenTechNet I just registered for an invite to attend the Women In Tech online conference next month. Was very disappointed that when you asked what city I'm from, my city, Jerusalem, wasn't available as an option. So many amazing women creating great tech in Jerusalem!!!!!
