| > That's a relievingly admirable way to look at these creatures. What's "admirable" or not "admirable" about. It's just language. If you read about the way orangutans are treated in indonesia, I doubt you'd feel it was admirable. > I find the English "it" an exceptionally tiring feature. Then don't use it. > We call ourselves hackers Who is we? I haven't seen many hackers here. Just people with agendas, particular leftist social agendas. > but where's a hackaday.io or hackathons for human language, the ubiquitous communication medium? Are you saying english is the "human language"? Also, math is the closest thing to the ubiquitous communication medium. Not sure what your complaining about. Orangutan is part of the english language as well. You don't have to use 'it'. And as for your "hacking the language", I don't care for your or anyone else Newspeak. Language is a tool and it should evolve as the need requires, not because people have a social agenda to push. |
