Bad choice for coding music: Westworld Main Title Theme

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@redgirl13 @timtomch of course, it does break down for a myriad of reasons (mostly openurl deadends), thus necessitating the menu.

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@redgirl13 @timtomch we came across this very sensible feedback, and so have a "oneclick" default (first result in https://t.co/pZm7F5WRrI)

Sunday night coding sessions seem great at the time! Monday morning debugging though... #DevHangover

@pabinkley Interesting! Maybe next year, with a bit more substantial experience under my belt

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@pabinkley @mjgiarlo @redlibrarian There's also a MARC use case I'd like to use it for next year. Nothing concretely planned there yet.

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@pabinkley @mjgiarlo @redlibrarian I'd say we're at the exploratory stage. Potential projects in the DH area, as mentioned in the job desc.

Thinking of pinning contained infographic up on my cubicle wall... https://t.co/G7pWgHv55t

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@cm_harlow we know the need has existed. Nice to bring these use cases up in this forum! Lends substance to theory. #cldisummit

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@cm_harlow we have looked at that, especially for annotation data storage. Discussions ongoing.

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@cm_harlow and, of course, I'll be getting into rdf data modelling, so expect a hail soon

[Bilal Khalid @UTLBilal]

@cm_harlow absolutely! I hope to get my act in order soon and publish some of my python converters onto github

Q: Is agile methodology viable in an environment where people are working on multiple projects at once? #cldisummit
