We can make this file beautiful and searchable if this error is corrected: It looks like row 10 should actually have 12 columns, instead of 11. in line 9.

How to create a list of reflection posts in github pages:

  1. Create a repository.
  2. Create a second branch called gh-pages.
  3. Create your index file. The goal is to have a blurb introducing your work, and then a list of dated posts.
  4. Include a folder for stylesheets, as well as a favicon, readme or whatever other resources you need to make the site functional and good-looking.
  5. In a folder called posts, drop similarly styled html files with the text replaced with the new post. In my workflow, I'm writing the posts elsewhere and then editing them to remove confidential or personally identifying information. It might be a good idea to keep a blank html template file as one of my site resources.
  6. Create a new line in the main page's html file that links to the corresponding post (structured thusly: https://username.github.io/repository/posts/post1.html) and you're all set!

Nice plot template format for k-means clustering
plot(a,pch=20, col = a.km$cluster)
symbols(x=a.km$centers,circles=a.km$size, add=TRUE)
text(x=a$x,y=a$y,labels=row.names(a[1:34,]),col="red",cex=0.5)

Some useful igraph commands (R) for converting weighted adjacency matrices to graph files
# Load adjacency matrix as a graph object
library(igraph)
Load adjacency matrix:
dat=read.csv(file.choose(),header=TRUE,row.names=1,check.names=FALSE)
m=as.matrix(dat)
g=graph.adjacency(m,mode="undirected",weighted=TRUE)

Quals reading lists

Methodological approaches to understanding and representing (archaeological) knowledge work - Costis Dallas

This reading list explores the different ways in which research practice and knowledge construction may be studied. It surveys various relevant methodologies, and assesses the implications that come to bear through their use. What kinds of information are collected through different data collection protocols? How does this contribute to different research outcomes down the road? How might insights garnered through different approaches lead to different ways of extending or applying them? How might the freedom and flexibility afforded by the use of grounded theory be leveraged effectively?

Theoretical and applied approaches to cognition and action - Matt Ratto

The starting point for this reading list is the assumption that archaeological projects be considered as cooperatively constructed socio-technical mechanisms that are iteratively designed and tinkered with to construct

zackbatist / FetchAbstracts.R
Created September 19, 2018 18:27
A small script that reads DOIs from a bibtex file, fetches abstracts from Crossref when they are available, and exports another bibtex file with that added info.
# install and run packages
# install.packages("bib2df")
# install.packages("rcrossref")
library(bib2df)
library(rcrossref)
# import the bibtex to a data frame
# biblio.bib is a file in the working directory
df <- bib2df("biblio.bib")
