Oh god, we truly are nerdy. My first instinct was "why didn't he just use sunt and have it all in Latin?".Kereb wrote:they are nerdissimus inter nerdes

Oh, I thought you were giving examples of difficult stuff. Rendaku is a little difficult too, but it has nothing on Athabaskan though.Darkgamma wrote:Do you see anyone outside Japan and linguistics knowing about it?

one problem is that by using a single define for femaleness (rather than #undef MALE in addition or instead) your code internalizes the patriarchy by classifying females as the exception, a special thing to be marveled at: oh how amazing there is a girl on the internet, let's all starefaiuwle wrote:While I originally meant "#define FEMALE" to mean "I am female", I think a better (and just as useful!) translation might be "there are women on the internet" or "there are female programmers".
My purpose was communication, not political statement. In any case, maleness (and whiteness, and straightness, etc.) is the default assumption in a lot of places (not just the internet) and pretending that it isn't doesn't change that. Acknowledging that and taking it into account when deciding how to communicate something is not internalizing the patriarchy. You might interpret Sko's sig as internalizing the patriarchy in this way (by asserting that maleness is the absence of femaleness) but I'm pretty sure it was just meant to be taken as continuation of mine (assuming that the posts in one page/thread form one sequence of code).Bob Johnson wrote:your code internalizes the patriarchy by classifying females as the exception, a special thing to be marveled at: oh how amazing there is a girl on the internet, let's all stare
Only if you're attempting to model actual embryo/fetus/foetus/whatever development. Anyway, if I were to consider it a true default, I would have to put nothing, which would defeat the purpose. See point #1.also from a biological perspective females are the default
