They don’t really care about the semantics, the press is just trying to get a headline where they connect mamdani to 9/11, have a page with his picture and 9/11 on it.
Wait, are people really upset that Mamdani spoke about his “aunt,” and it was actually his father’s cousin and not his father’s sibling?
Because that is an extremely normal thing a lot of cultures do. Including a lot of large Jewish families!

In a bit of a tense moment, one of the La Mega co-hosts presses Mamdani on why he "lied" about his "aunt" having been scared to ride the subway after 9/11 while wearing a hijab.
Mamdani says it was "not a lie" because he refers to his father's cousin as his "aunt."

Russian propagandists and Russian semantics over gas getting pricier:
"So gasoline hasn’t dropped in price? That’s the polite way to put it now? A price increase is called 'it hasn’t gotten cheaper.' Oh, it hasn’t dropped so much that it actually shows a negative drop."

If it “drives you mad” when you see black or Asian people then you are a racist. That’s not semantics. That’s literally the definition of a racist. That’s what racist means.

#HTML is only as accessible as you write it.
Semantics determine what an element is, and browsers provide some interactive behavior for native interactive elements for free.
But just because two patterns have similar behavior doesn't make them semantically the same.

The amount of people that actively ignore MA, argue the semantics of the term and actively speak against it need to be addressed.
Yall know jts WEIRD (derogatory) to not help people right?
All the folks who have told you that being expected to help others is beyond the pale are actively hurting us all.
If everyone started helping the folks they can reach today we'd be seeing things become noticeably better tomorrow.

NaN != NaN is another IEEE 754 thing, which works perfectly well in languages where you opt into float semantics

using API calls for this (which only works for functions and not for modules btw) is imo gross because the code doesn’t say there’s special semantics activating.
to me, magical functions like server$() seem worse than directives because they look like JS functions but aren’t

even saying "they don't know what words mean" is a bit wrong. I don't know what any Turkish words mean, but I understand the concept of semantics: that in Turkish, as in all languages, each word is a arbitrary symbol referring to something else. I can learn Turkish, because I know this. LLMs cannot.

directives clearly say: there’s something special going on, in a way that fancily named server$ or whatever fake functions don’t.
that’s why there’s a standard “use strict” directive, and why there’s been experimental directives like “use asm”. it’s metadata relevant to execution semantics

Been thinking about my linguistics degree and while I always loved the discipline, on reflection I think the stuff I found politically engaging (discourse analysis) didn't align with what I enjoyed intellectually (cognitive linguistics, e.g. first language acquisition, cognitive semantics).

I think if you argue for video games being more expensive you just don't want poor people to be able to play them. There's no semantics-ing your way out of that. That is the material effect of making games more expensive, no matter what you say.

“All you need to do is upgrade” is my favorite way to improve performance.
When c++11 came out, the language added move semantics. Simply upgrading the compiler was a ~10% perf increase in most codebases.
Being able to make big perf improvements without breaking APIs signals good API design.

There's this absolute sickness amongst tech people where they see the nontechnical as inferior and at times subhuman.
I do not think the fact that I understand POSIX signal semantics makes me a better human being, or more deserving of having my needs met by the systems we all engage with.

I can't fucking believe that we have time for "auntgate" when THE FUCKING PRESIDENT IS A FUCKING PEDOPHILE.
Maybe these "soundbyte semantics" scandals made sense in 1998, but our entire political culture these days is open corruption and bad faith lying.

This seems like an unusually boneheaded argument for someone from La Mega to make. It’s a perfectly normal broad familial term across multiple cultures.

not that dancers have been put through a grinder but the articleless singular feels like it has "material out of which something is made" semantics.
i think lots of people would similarly say e.g. "my dog is golden retriever and german shepherd" with no article
