Richard @futrell.bsky.social and I have posted our response to the commentaries on our BBS target article "How Linguistics Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Language Models." The response is: "You Can't Fight in Here! This is BBS!" arxiv.org/abs/2604.09501

Federal Judge Approves Trump Effort to Extract List of Jews From Penn The decision to allow the government to collect the names and phone numbers of Jewish people on campus could allow the government to pursue similar tactics elsewhere. β€’ Listen β€’ 3:32 min < 1 TODAY

Today I learned that there is such a thing as a Bayesian bicep curl. No apparent relation to anything #Bayes or #statistics. Missed opportunity to create Bayesian glute bridges; after all, the whole point is to update your posterior.
