People don’t want to admit their hair trigger reaction when Stalin is mentioned has everything to do with anti communism. None of you get this incensed when Churchill or US presidents are brought up. I bet you voted Kamala despite her role in genocide. You understand pragmatics when you want to.

"While more than 80% of young learners in primary school learn a foreign language and research on this learner population has been conducted for more than two decades now, pragmatics has received little attention..."

What iteration and recursion constructs do programming languages provide, and how are they implemented?
In my latest Programming Language Pragmatics video, I talk about constructs from while loops through generators to tail-recursive functions, along with implementation approaches and tradeoffs.

“Have you seen the new strawberry” to mean “Have you seen the new thing that freaks LLMs out” is good pragmatics

How do programming languages define control flow?
In my latest Programming Language Pragmatics video, I talk about precedence, order of evaluation, and expression vs. statements. Control flow matters most for side effects; I talk about tradeoffs involved and forms of assignment.

how in all these systems, pragmatics, ambiguity and context play an important role in "meaning-making" and "communication" shifting away from a mono-modal code-model both for human language and animal communication, with implications for language evolution

Here I will pick just "one" thing the growing realisation of the importance of multimodality (and its interaction with pragmatics) such as in conceptions of language as a multimodally integrated system. This is reflected in descriptions of linguistic communication (e.g. gesture-speech integration) +

How does one write efficient code for modern processors?
My new Programming Language Pragmatics video covers a big part of the answer: using instruction scheduling and register allocation to reduce pipeline stalls that compromise performance!

I see you like to discuss the ontology of the checks rather than the pragmatics of the situation, enjoy your philosophical soliloquies

You'd think after all these years that Corbyn wouldn't be quite so incompetent and ignorant of reality.
Maybe Polanski could teach him a thing or two about the pragmatics of progressive politics.

How is data represented in computer architectures?
My latest Programming Language Pragmatics video gives compiler writers information about twos-complement integers, floating point numbers, and little-endian vs. big-endian byte order, useful for manipulating data in target code.

Those working in computational methods connecting linguistics to AI, and whose research intersects w/ our major focus areas: syntax, semantics, pragmatics, phonetics, phonology, psycholing, cogsci, documentation, historical linguistics, sign languages, or sociolinguistics are encouraged to apply 🤘

Language implementers need a solid grounding in processor architecture in order to understand how to generate good code. In my latest Programming Language Pragmatics video, I put on my "architecture hat" to cover the memory hierarchy and explain the implications for code generation.

and actually, a lot of theater school's relentless focus on *pragmatics* -- everything you try to understand about another person has a specific check, which is that you have to understand how it appears onstage -- is useful for understanding human behavior in a way that I find

Can someone whip me together a photo of Xi and Zelensky shaking hands with some climate pragmatics caption? (Yes I know about China’s relationship w Russia IRL)
A whopping 38% of Russia’s refining capacity is now offline, according to The Economist.
Gasoline output fell by 1 million tons in September which has created a 20% domestic shortfall.
Repairs may take months because of sanctions limiting access to parts and tech.
