After much reflection, the time has come for me to retire, effective at the end of this year. This marks the end of a deeply fulfilling chapter in my life — one filled with purpose, collaboration, and a shared commitment to open knowledge and community-driven progress in open source, open access publishing.

Wie wird aus einem geförderten Pilotprojekt eine dauerhaft tragfähige Infrastruktur? Diese zentrale Frage stellten sich viele der Teilnehmenden des Hands-on-Labs „Vom Drittmittelprojekt über die Community zur etablierten Struktur – Erfahrungsaustausch und Erarbeitung von Empfehlungen“ (Arning et al. 2025) auf dem 9. Bibliothekskongress / der 113. Bibliocon in Bremen am 26.06.2025.

The DinoCon brochure — really a conference guidebook, with schedule, speaker list, vendor list, maps, etc. — is a free download here. Art by Natalia Jagielska. DinoCon is right around the corner, the weekend of August 16-17. The speaker lineup looks fantastic, and the vendor lineup looks like it will execute a Chicxulub on my wallet. On the speaker side, I’m happy to see sauropods getting so much representation.

Introduction AI has evolved drastically over time. AI agents started off as elementary programs based on if-then rules without any extra learning capabilities. They were reactive . You give them an input, they give something back. Early chatbots, spam filters all fell under this category.

Eine von Ammianus Marcellinus überlieferte Anekdote berichtet, dass der römische Stadtpräfekt Leontius einen aufgebrachten Mob, der angeblich aufgrund von Weinmangel auf die Straße gegangen war, allein durch die Macht des Wortes besänftigte und so die Verhaftung der Rädelsführer ohne Blutvergießen ermöglichte. 1 Die beschriebene Szene eröffnet nicht nur Einblicke in den Klassismus und Elitarismus des römischen Geschichtsschreibers

I’ve written a lot about Ollama here. Ollama lets you run open-weight models like Llama, Gemma, Mistral, Qwen, DeepSeek, etc. on your own computer. You don’t have to pay for a frontier model like ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, and all the inputs and outputs stay on your computer, minimizing any privacy and security concerns. Until recently Ollama was a command-line only tool.

When we study societal collapse, we typically examine it through the lens of elites. Using the records and remains left by emperors, nobles, and the literate classes who had the most to lose when their world ended. But what if we’ve been asking the wrong question all along?
