IN CONSTRUCTION Human beings are only healthy when they are still in construction (intellectually). Aging starts when they become a self-museum.

Telling someone who has experienced accent discrimination that everyone has an accent is not the kind of comforting they need. They need acknowledgment that accents are hierarchized in terms of race, class, nationality, and so on.

Peter Theil says the reason the Paypal mafia exists today isn't because of his hiring techniques but how he managed those people. Things like extreme bias for action, cult-like company culture, and "one thing" management philosophy. Founders must understand how it works:
There she ends saying she is not a pedant but an expert.... @lynneguist #ciep2024
What do we do with all this? We embarce uncertainty. Is you context clear? Does the reader know? Is the word choice carrying excessive baggage? @lynneguist #ciep2024
What is an error? It's not something people say, it's spelling or grammatical error, it's not in this particular style guid, it's a split infinitive, it's passive, you should avoid this... We think of it as errors only after somebody gave it a name. @lynneguist #ciep2024
What is a noun? Semantic criteria: a word for person, place or thing. Grammatical criteria: can be definite or indefinite noun phrase, can be singular or plural, can be made possessive. @lynneguist #ciep2024
What is a word? 'Throuples dating app Feeld nearly doubles turnover to £39.5 m'. Nine words?
Bilingual is hard to define... @lynneguist #ciep2024
Who is bilingual? Is Scots different language from English? Is Flemish different from English? Is there any such thing as British English ... or American English? @lynneguist #ciep2024
Laypeople think of categories as real. @lynneguist #ciep2024
George L. Murphy: Categories We Live By. How We Classify Everyone and Everything. Chapter 6 on psychodiagnostic categories. How clinicians and laypeople think about mental illness categories is interesting. @lynneguist #ciep2024
Peanut butter bottles on display .... In America, peanut butter is acceptable only if it has 90% peanuts. @lynneguist #ciep2024
No such thing as a fish -- podcast -- talks about classification of animals. @lynneguist #ciep2024
It's funny how chicken burger UK (cooked meat in a bun) looks opposed to chicken burger US (ground meat in a patty). @lynneguist #ciep2024
Narrowing words with evaluation. @lynneguist #ciep2024
British cookies are different from American cookies... @lynneguist #ciep2024
