HAPPY NEW (work) YEAR!
Back in the office so it's time to ask once more for help with our #ScottishGaelic research!
We believe that folks should be able to engage with information in their preferred language. To that end, our project aims to develop #chatbots for exhibits at the National Museum of Scotland.
To build these chatbots we need example conversations. Anyone who can read+write #Gàidhlig can participate by expressing interest here: https://forms.office.com/r/ZgWJTWHsC6
Pays up to £30 for 2 hours.
Any pundit who is criticizing Pres. Zelenskyy's attire is failing to read the room, but moreover, they're just completely missing the point.
A country and its leader under immediate and existential threats have no time for suits and neckties.
He has no visible rank or medals or nametapes or epaulets or brass buttons or starched creases. He's wearing what women and men who are fighting on the frontlines in Ukraine are wearing.
He's wearing the urgency of the moment.
That's the point.
Grian-stad. Solstice.
Oidhche nan Seachd Suipearan.

Rosalind Franklin’s research was crucial to discovering DNA’s double helix structure 🧬 but it was James Watson & Francis Crick who received the credit & Nobel Prize.
Unknown to Franklin, the pair saw her unpublished data & X-ray diffraction images, inspiring their model. They never acknowledged her contribution until after her death.
How many discoveries & innovations of #women do we attribute to the men who took credit for their ideas?
