@Libby_Burgess @JWHallBaritone @Karenmca @mezzocheryl @thejamesmcaulay @hutchingsmusic @CherylHoad I think a lot of songs work well if you recontextualise them (for instance, Chausson Les Temps des Lilas).

@binarybits I’m sure there’s an article to be written about the intersection between Calvinist predestination and this idea of us as stochastic parrots.

4) I wonder about the ‘mappability’ of word vectors between languages. Or even between species. 5) The idea that a computer can learn about how the world works by studying our languages is fascinating to me. A symbol participates in that which it represents.

It can’t have been easy to be Noah’s wife. But what about Abraham’s wife, let alone Jephtha’s? To the modern eye, the response of Noah’s wife seems pretty sane and sensible.
