Hey, UK! Happy first National Linguistics Day!

Proposals for NLD traditions:

(a) Add language wonder to every conversation.

(b) Exchange gifts of linguistics content.

(c) Sing linguistics carols:

(d) Do deeds to protect languages or linguistic institutions.

This is gutting.

Pocket has been a crucial part of my strategy for digital sanity for so long, using it is a reflex.

I’d say something about looking for a Pocket alternative, but I still remember the heartbreak of Google Reader’s loss, and how that void didn’t fill.

As someone who has reported on AI for 7 years and covered China tech as well, I think the biggest lesson to be drawn from DeepSeek is the huge cracks it illustrates with the current dominant paradigm of AI development. A long thread. 1/

This article reminded me of cinema-related traditions that have long gone by the wayside, like checking the listings for multiple cinemas in the newspaper to work out where to go.

UK university, and so far it seems fairly ignorable. It's not a heavy Teams environment though - I wonder if it would be more in my face if we were using Teams more consistently.

South Africans know that what Elon Musk is doing in the US is 'state capture'. They know because they've lived through it:

Is Elon Musk taking over the US government? Here’s how ‘state capture’ works – and why we should be concerned
Elon Musk has been accused of attempting a coup or hostile takeover of the US government. His actions could better be described as a form of ‘state capture’. Here’s what that means.
