I am delighted to share our new #PNAS paper, with @grvkamath.bsky.social @msonderegger.bsky.social and @sivareddyg.bsky.social, on whether age matters for the adoption of new meanings. That is, as words change meaning, does the rate of adoption vary across generations? www.pnas.org/doi/epdf/10....

This game from UChicago is incredible! It might be a bit painful to play, especially for those of us who already spend too much time on email, but the concept and execution are brilliant!
HR Simulator™: a game where you gaslight, deflect, and “let’s circle back” your way to victory.
Every email a boss fight, every “per my last message” a critical hit… or maybe you just overplayed your hand 🫠

Super cool work on quantifying with NLP how language evolves through generations
In linguistics, the "apparent time hypothesis" famously discusses this but never empirically tests it

Our new paper in #PNAS (bit.ly/4fcWfma) presents a surprising finding—when words change meaning, older speakers rapidly adopt the new usage; inter-generational differences are often minor.
