Sunday thoughts while reading on imagery, modernity, and 19th c. French poetry: the oxymoron of the "fleeting image."

Afternoon break, reading Jhumpa Lahiri's story "Unaccustomed Earth" set in Seattle, where I lived prior to Tokyo. It's fun imagining the places mentioned and mapping it out in my head.

Flackbacks of fond memories, archiving Chinese materials for the @PULibrary Cotsen Children's Library!

I got pretty lucky with my first part-time job in college, doing something I love with the language skills I value. 🤗

The foreign language section of smaller public libraries in Tokyo are always full of surprises 💎. Here's an illustrated dictionary of Chinese characters, published in 1990 in my hometown of Jilin, China by the Northern China Women and Children's Publishing House.

@Lyle_AI Indeed, "Avoid creating or reinforcing unfair bias" is one of @GoogleAI 's ethics principles which we ask applicants to contemplate. I'm hoping to come across some thoughtful approaches in the proposals.

[Kath @readwithkath]

I've volunteered to be a reviewer for proposals in the "making education equitable, accessible, and effective using AI" track. Excited to read everyone's ideas soon!

In @Stanford's CS246 course with @jure, I learned about recommender systems. It's cool to see that someone made an application for book lovers 📚 (see FAQs for "how does WSIRN work")
