~900 downloads in the first few days on PyPI – but only ~10% look like real Python environments (the rest are mirrors / bots). So roughly 20–30 genuine installs per day. For a niche CJEU empirical toolkit, I’ll take that. pypi.org/project/cjeu...

1) Unpacking international legal argument by leveraging computational techniques and, more recently, GenAI; 2) Mapping the 'invisible college' of international lawyers and its dynamics in various ways, including scraping Bluesky. (Not technically working on it, but the code is running...)
