Stephen Fry and Jonathan Ross Discuss Language Evolution

Phreezdryd says...

So "mind meld" doesn't mean what we think it means?

Why does our language have to evolve through mistakes and typos? Wonky technology plus laziness equals new language? Seems like nothing more than ignorance and a bad attitude towards getting something correct.

Where Do Deleted Files Go?

xxovercastxx says...

I was pretty sure that files in the recycle bin do not have their pointers removed yet and that they are really just "moved" into a folder with special rules. I thought the pointer got removed when they were really deleted.

BTW, your link has a typo in it. Also, I can plug DBAN which does the same sort of thing, but for the entire hard disk.

This is why (on Windows) you can easily undelete from the recycle bin.

To really delete something, the entire file's saved data needs to be overwritten. There's a lot of great software like Eraser that you can use to do this easily.

You sleep in bread? Is that a typo??

I know you have fairy wings, but you told the pilot to turn around so you were in a plane or something.

OK, Let's do it this weekend. Beside, I (worker ant!) have to work on weekdays.

Sweet dreams in your cozy bed, partner (we're not doing crimes, silly!). I will sleep in my bread soon.

Why do British and American spellings differ?

oritteropo says...

It actually makes spell checkers much less useful when you have to get used to ignoring them half the time... I find myself missing real typos as a result.

The changing of 's' to 'z' is a bit annoying. Mainly due to Microsoft among others passing English (English) and English (Australian) off as being English (US) in their software's due to not including proper English for the respective language settings.

Good point, and I love your freudian typo, "legal and legal immigrants" (if you have a link to the doc...). The problem of homeless immigrants here is a complicated one: there are shelters for asylum-seekers but they a) are not numerous enough to keep up with the growing influx, b) try to prioritize women/children, c) have trouble with interethnic squabbles (which can grow to full-fledged knife-fights, thank FSM we don't have guns in easy circulation), d) have to deal with the profiteers/criminals giving them a bad rep.
In addition to this, those who have been denied permission to stay are less likely to show up at state-run shelters where they are liable to be found out and escorted out (of the country). Finally, criminal tourism* in Europe (especially the richer countries, like CH) is a real problem, one the US does not experience.

*a huge topic of its own, but some examples in CH are French car-thieves, Romanian mafia-organised begging/breaking-and-entering (often using children so as not to get penalised), North African drug-dealing (the hard stuff), etc. None of these make it easier for the population to be more accepting of the vast majority of non-criminal foreigners from these parts, because it is as usual the criminals who are the most visible.

@hpqp I completely agree with what you were saying but I know that I have seen a documentary recently about the problems of homelessness in Switzerland. IIRC it is not driven by mental illness but rather the attitudes of the government and the society towards immigrants both legal and legal from southern Europe and northern Africa. You fully acknowledged that Swiss society was not perfect, but i thought it interesting to raise a counterpoint to how empathetic the Swiss are towards some sectors of their society while turning a blind eye to others.
