Got my #BeePioneer to pair with my phone. Working well, but right now seems to only understand one language at a time. The way it tries to understand #Japanese as #English is extremely ... funny?

Tried changing it to Japanese, but training the voice recognition for that language did not go well. Switched back to English.

Still, just started with it; can't wait to see how it does after a few weeks.

I am trying to avoid #Amazon. Is there any comparable online #bookstore in Europe that sells #English-language #books? I sometimes buy at Worldofbooks in the UK, but they only sell used books and sometimes I want to read something before it hits the used book market. I am in Germany, but would happily pay a little extra for shipping from other EU countries instead of ordering at Amazon.

On the value of the #humanities: "Humanist inquiry of the sort we pursue, with its situated knowledges and its cultural attunements and its fine-grained attentiveness to the shifting complexity of ethical and moral life, can give restorative heft to even the most tarnished of these ideals. You might need them." -- Peter Coviello, head of the #English department at Univesity of Illinois Chicago Circle

n+1 · Memos of Blood and Fire | Peter CovielloSo if you ask me about the signature strength of the department where I work, I will tell you. It is world-caliber field-defining research, wedded to a fantastically dynamic practice of instruction, accomplished at nothing less than the scale of the institution itself—all of it operating inside financial margins so narrow, at such absurdly low cost relative to its peers, you can hardly believe it.
