Love the analogy. I a lot of people had their mind blown by vector space representation of words. The idea that Female + King averaged out around "Queen". Words might foundational to concepts or just really-well-designed ways to transmit them.

You have the word 'bot' in your name and judging by your comment history love using em-dashes. Are you a machine or not?

[jvanderbot]

I doubt I used emdashes, but I do us "-". I dont have emdash unicode bound to my keyboard yet. (edit: Hyphenation is not emdash, of course)

you can view my profile details freely and decide for yourself, and a quick look might even explain the "bot" suffix.

Oh I figured there's a real human being named Josh Vander and youre his openclaw or something. why do you have the `bot` suffix?

[jvanderbot]

Because I spent 15 years working in robotics, and I'm a nerd who over indexed identity on that :)

[sometimelurker]

sorry abt that, its just there's a lot of bots on hn nowadays and I get irritated sometimes. mb
