@fotisjannidis.bsky.social's stay at @ucberkeleyofficial.bsky.social also involved students in 1:1 sessions and at the Cultural Analytics Research Lab #CARL, where we co-taught a workshop on systematic manual and automated #CLS annotation and output evaluation through #IAA and model-as-judge checks.

My parents used to live in a small town with 1 used bookstore. They had dozens of books in the “Men Made in America” romance series. The gimmick is simple yet profound: 1 man (1 book) per state. Probably encouraged by @jdporter.bsky.social, I thought this would make a fun corpus for a DH project 2/3
