30 years old, but still essential f rewriting #histcomp within broader context of data processing around 1900. Entire industries (office appliances!) and the mundane work of actual computation come into focus rather than heroic inventors & their electronic machines #histpaperwork

To all my new #histcomp followers interested in medical computing: Please consider joining us on the 14th of Oct. for this great workshop. It’s online and free! I’ll be discussing DICOM‘s history & protocol power regimes - & would love this opportunity to get to meet some of you!

“I am sure Grace Hopper is laughing in her grave.” At least that’s what one participant in this hearing thought Hopper’s reaction to Y2K would be. #HistofTech #sigcis #comphist #history #HistComp

#histcomp Also, I insisted on including the punch cards in the #yiddishatcolumbia exhibit: https://t.co/2yBFA7bUfM. Because of course Yiddish profs at Columbia were using computers for the #lcaaj in the '60s. #dhjewish

A great new book just out: "Print Punch - Artefacts From The Punch Card Era". The first book length examination of the computer punch card (and its precursors) as artefacts. Beautifully produced, with a lasercut front board in imitation of a punch card. https://t.co/uNc0TdUfEX

In 1961 and 1962, Uriel Weinreich received grants from the @AmPhilSociety to "explore the possibilities of utilizing data-processing machinery for the storage, filing, sorting, and searching of the accumulating field materials of the atlas" #dh #histcomp #lcaaj #dhjewish
