Was just talking about this vis a vis the endless text messages, esp since the reporting that it’s super predatory and negatively impacts the elderly

It’s fun!! Listen for the operatic beep beeps in the background, which were weirdly my favorite part.

Yesterday I texted a colleague asking her why it is that I insist on updating my classes each time I offer them. It would be so much easier if I just left them alone. Lolsob.

I, too, am working on syllabi today! It’s that time of the year…

Happy to share a new paper using isotopic data to reconstruct hunting territories at the Early Upper Paleolithic site of Mughr el-Hamamah (Jordan) — the link should allow folks to access without a paywall authors.elsevier.com/c/1nFDl-4PSH...

For #NSF and #NIH watchers, Grant Witness now has interactive data on numbers of grants and total funding obligations, broken down by institute and directorate, new awards and non-competitive renewals. The stranglehold on new awards is still a disaster. grant-witness.us/funding_curv...

Ugh this feels counterintuitive

In preparing proofs for a recent paper, Elsevier’s system removed all the capitalization for archaeological site names and time periods in my reference list, so I had to go through and add corrections to each instance. Insanely annoying.

This feels weird to me- but maybe it’s not as uncommon as I think for universities to bring people back from retirement (by many years?) for interim gigs?

My 8 year old niece has apparently seen it “more times than she has fingers and toes” - so it’s a thing with younger kids, too!

I chuckled and cringed at the same time

lol so many typos. I blame the early August chaos

We switched from Blackboard to Canvas. I hear Canvas is better, but I have been using Blackbord since 2009 :(

Jamie Clark @jamielcarch.bsky.social · 06/08/2025

And of course those are 3 different systems, none of which seem to interface with each other

Over the summer, we have transition to 1) a new LMS, 2) a new degree audit system, 3) advising/student data system. HALP.

FYI- if your mom is in a situation where she has a catheter, UTIs are also super common and can cause dementia-like symptoms among the elderly. This happened with my dad and we had to be proactive in asking for testing for it (I think care team assumed it was hospital dementia)

Ugh just looked it up. It’s all happening too fast to keep track of :/

I’m so bummed that this isn’t out in the US until August!

I have learned that those games are infinitely easier when someone who has played before is in the room. But it’s also a super ambitious start lol. Have y’all tried Wingspan? Catan is also a good entry level one.

Jamie Clark @jamielcarch.bsky.social · 20/11/2023

Oh lord what is that? Also I don’t see a board- those card based games are something else (and usually super complicated)

I’ve had a couple of students ask me about archaeology field schools that would be accessible to students with health issues or disabilities that limit their ability to do strenuous physical work. Does anyone here have good recommendations?

Jamie Clark @jamielcarch.bsky.social · 11/09/2023

Just getting my feet wet over here, but I’m glad to see it’s gaining traction with folks I enjoyed following at that other site.
