>Back view of a cat which is wearing sunglasses, back view of a cat, but the view is wearing sunglasses, etc... I actually tried using projective terms from drafting books, and didn't get great results. Nor anatomicals either. In short: natural language is not good enough and you need a DSL. If only the last 60 years of language research had warned us of this. Up next: English sentences are ambiguous and need context information to parse correctly. Machine learning community in shambles. |

The trouble is all those darn uninitiated and trying to create a generalized oracle to map their inspecific ramblings to what they mean to free them of having to actually communicate properly...
Actually, funnily enough, this has cross section with philosophy in a way most programmers scoff at; but communication is frigging hard, and worse, detecting when someone is trying to get something across, but just needs a nudge in the right direction to be able to find the language to explain it is really damn hard.
I run into it every time I get a haircut. I have no idea how to speak their language, so it's always "Uh... A little off the top and rounded at the back, I guess?"
