The PhD life (before and after getting the degree)

Ever feeling like that when you're doing your conference presentations?

Here's my conversation with Edward Gibson (@LanguageMIT), a linguist and psychologist at MIT, heading the MIT Language Lab. We talk all about the human language: syntax, grammar, structure, theories of language, evolution of language, how it reflects culture, and of course LLMs, both their amazing power and their limitations. It's here on X in full, and is up on YouTube, Spotify, and everywhere else. Links in comment.

A PhD

My PhD student Vanessa is looking for advanced L2 Mandarin learners (L1 English) to participate in an experiment over Zoom. She got enough heritage speakers already and now looking for L2 learners with no early exposure to Mandarin. Thanks for reposting! cla.purdue.edu/english/franci…

You hate online conferences because 1. You hate conferences. The actual conference parts are boring. And academics get away with boring conferences because people like the other stuff. 2. There's no travel, no having dinner with friends. Those are the parts of conferences you like. The problem isn't, therefore, online conferences. It's folks not putting in the work of creating actually fun and generative etc. events. This was never a priority for on-site events because you didn't have to care to sell tickets. But you need to do it online or else the whole thing is boring. The problem isn't Zoom. It's hosts who refuse to put in the work of learning how the platform works, and ensuring all participants have what they need for success, technology-wise. The problem isn't that it's online. It's that organizers don't build in ways to connect participants beyond formal sessions. They don't usually even think about non-presenters as participants at all, because there's not much meaningful participating for them to do. This is no fun and it's not inviting. Online conferences are the future and we do actually have the tools to make them awesome. But it's going to take a lot more time and money (to pay for expert help) than most seem to want to spend.

This reads like a parody of how a physicist would approach language
