Text of the page (random words):
are like the one you clicked on but you get to choose one of five different ways items can be alike at the strictest end they are other items classified under the same first subject at the loosest end the browser takes the first real word of the title and does a simple keyword search on it so clicking on fifty shades of gray will fetch items that have the word fifty in their titles or metadata it s fragile lousy code see for yourself at github but that s actually sort of the point boogywoogy is a demo of the sort of thing even a hobbyist like me can write using the harvard librarycloud api librarycloud is an open library platform that makes library metadata available to developers although i ve left the harvard library innovation lab that spawned this project i m still working on it through november as a small but talented and knowledgeable team of developers at the lab and harvard library technical services are getting ready for a launch of a beta in a few months i ll tell you more about it as the time approaches for example we re hoping to hold a hackathon in november anyway feel free to give boogywoogy a try and when it breaks you have no one to blame but me the post boogywoogy library browser appeared first on joho the blog 1 comment et tu u2 september 18th 2014 a few days ago when apple pushed the latest from u2 into everyone s itunes library you could hear the internet pause as it suddenly realized that apple is its parents age now in the ad promotion succubus occupying the body of what used to be time magazine you can see u2 desperate to do exactly the wrong thing insisting that it wasn t a gift at all you can learn more about this in the hilariously titled cover article of time the veteran rock band faces the future this a future in which tracks we don t like are bundled with tracks we do the return of the cd format and people who share with their fans are ruining it for u2 boohoo or as bono recently said we were paid for the apple downloads adding i don t believe in free music music is a sacrament and as everyone knows sacraments need to be purchased at a fair market value the results of which bono as a deeply spiritual artist secures in sacred off shore accounts in my head i hear bono enraged by the increasingly bad publicity composing a message that he posts without first running it through his phalanx of pr folks dear fans you have recently received a copy of our latest album songs of innocence in your itunes library u2 understands you may be confused or even upset by this so let me clarify once and for all the most important point about this if i may humbly say so eternal masterpiece it was not our intention to cause you stress or to wonder if you have the musical sensitivity to full grasp if i may humbly say the greatness of our work but most important it is essential above all that you understand that it was not our intention to give you a gift no freaking way we understand your mistake you are after all just fans and you don t play in the jetstream world of global music as i said to my dear friend nelson mandela friend is too weak a word i was his mentor shortly before he passed music is a sacrament just like tickets to movies especially ones with major stars working for scale or like the bill at a restaurant where you and any two of the clintons chelsea you are a star give yourself that are plotting goodness to tell you the truth i m disappointed in you no worse i m hurt personally hurt how dare you think this was a gift after all these years is that all u2 is worth to you nothing our music has all the value of a crackerjacks trinket or a lower end rolex in an awards show gift bag do you not understand that apple paid us for every copy they distributed we were paid for it sheeple massive numbers of dollars were transferred into our bank accounts more dollars than you could count you whiny little ooh look at me i m sharing wankers we re u2 dammit we don t need you you need us money is love extra ordinary love have a beautiful day meanwhile as always amanda palmer expresses the open hearted truth about this issue it almost makes me regret making fun of bono almost the post et tu u2 appeared first on joho the blog comments off on et tu u2 eim alphabetical order explained in a mere 27 817 words july 27th 2014 this is one of the most amazing examples i ve seen of the complexity of even simple organizational schemes unicode collation algorithm unicode technical standard 10 spells out in precise detail how to sort strings in what we might colloquially call alphabetical order but it s way way way more complex than that unicode is an international standard for how strings of characters get represented within computing systems for example in the familiar ascii encoding the letter a is represented in computers by the number 65 but ascii is too limited to encode the world s alphabets unicode does the job as the paper says collation is the general term for the process and function of determining the sorting order of strings of characters so that for example users can look them up on a list alphabetical order is a simple form of collation sorting inconsistent alphabets is well a problem but let technical standard 10 explain the problem it is important to ensure that collation meets user expectations as fully as possible for example in the majority of latin languages ø sorts as an accented variant of o meaning that most users would expect ø alongside o however a few languages such as norwegian and danish sort ø as a unique element after z sorting søren after sylt in a long list as would be expected in norwegian or danish will cause problems if the user expects ø as a variant of o a user will look for søren between sorem and soret not see it in the selection and assume the string is missing confused because it was sorted in a completely different location heck some french dictionaries even sort their accents in reverse order see section 1 3 but that s nothing here s a fairly random paragraph from further into this magnificent document section 7 2 in the ducet characters are given tertiary weights according to table 17 the decomposition type is from the unicode character database uax44 the case or kana subtype entry refers either to a case distinction or to a specific list of characters the weights are from min 2 to max 1f16 excluding 7 which is not used for historical reasons or from section 8 2 users often find asymmetric searching to be a useful option when doing an asymmetric search a character or grapheme cluster in the query that is unmarked at the secondary and or tertiary levels will match a character in the target that is either marked or unmarked at the same levels but a character in the query that is marked at the secondary and or tertiary levels will only match a character in the target that is marked in the same way you may think i m being snarky i m not at all this document dives resolutely into the brambles and does not give up it incidentally exposes just how complicated even the simplest of sorting tasks is when looked at in their full context where that context is history language culture and the ambiguity in which they thrive the post eim alphabetical order explained in a mere 27 817 words appeared first on joho the blog 1 comment two percent of harvard s library collection circulates every year a high percentage of the works that are checked out are the same as the books that were checked out last year this fact can cause reflexive tsk tsking among librarians but with some heavy qualifications to come this is at it should be the existence of a long tail is not a sign of failure or waste to see this consider what it would be like if there were no long tail harvard s 73 libraries have 16 million items source there are 21 000 students and 2 400 faculty source if we guess that half of the library items are available for check out which seems conservative that would mean that 160 000 different items are checked out every year if there were no long tail then no book would be checked out more than any other in that case it would take the harvard community an even fifty years before anyone would have read the same book as anyone else and a university community in which across two generations no one has read the same book as anyone else is not a university community i know my assumptions are off for example i m not counting books that are read in the library and not checked out but my point remains we want our libraries to have nice long tails library long tails are where culture is preserved and discovery occurs and having said that it is perfectly reasonable to work to lower the difference between the fat head and the long tail and it is always desirable to help people to find the treasures in the long tail which means this post is arguing against a straw man no one actually wants to get rid of the long tail but i prefer to put it that this post argues against a reflex of thought i find within myself and have encountered in others the long tail is a requirement for the development of culture and ideas and at the same time we should always help users to bring riches out of the long tail the post 2b2k in defense of the library long tail appeared first on joho the blog 1 reading emily dickinson s metadata march 21st 2014 there s a terrific article by helen vendler in the march 24 2014 new republic about what can learn about emily dickinson by exploring her handwritten drafts helen is a dickinson scholar of serious repute and she finds revelatory significance in the words that were crossed out replaced or listed as alternatives in the physical arrangement of the words on the page etc for example prof vendler points to the change of the line in the spirit what customs hath the air became what function hath the air she says that this change points to a more abstract unrevealing even algebraic understanding of the future habitation of the spirit prof vendler s source for many of the poems she points to is emily dickinson the gorgeous nothings by marta werner and jen bervin the book she is reviewing but she also points to the new online dickinson collection from amherst and harvard the site was developed by the berkman center s geek cave unfortunately the new republic article is not available online i very much hope that it will be since it provides such a useful way of reading the materials in the online dickinson collection which are themselves available under a creativecommons license that enables non commercial use without asking permission the post reading emily dickinson s metadata appeared first on joho the blog 2 comments citycodesandordinances xml january 16th 2014 a friend is looking into the best way for a city to publish its codes and ordinances to make them searchable and reusable what are the best schemas or ontologies to use i work in a law school library so you might think i d know nope so i asked a well informed mailing list here s what they have suggested more or less in their own words check the work of legislation gov uk on an rdf based legislation database at http www legislation gov uk developer formats rdf opengovfoundation org have been doing this for various cities and have open sourced their source code that organizes the laws they are posting online open states project sez we have specs for almost everything except that at http opencivicdata org take a look at http docs opencivicdata org en latest index html other documentation you might have a look at the legal xml folk see links such as http blog law cornell edu voxpop category legal xml and http legislative data mapping challengepost com applying this in a legislative context waldo jaquith of the us open data institute and the state decoded is a brilliant resource on this sort of thing and has dealt practically with standardizing and making state codes parseable carl malamud has been making these codes openly available for quite a while worth looking into any other suggestions the post citycodesandordinances xml appeared first on joho the blog 1 comment next everything is
