5/5 In this way, old translations of the Bible (for example, 'lamia' in the Vulgate and 'onokentaur' in the Septuagint) kept their demonic nature. Later biblical translations, such as Russian versions, drift toward their night semantics, interpreting it as a night ghost, an animal, a beast, or a bird.
1/5 That's a nice story, but I had a linguistic question bothering mฤ for some time: are the (ืืืืืช) Lilit and ืืืื (lailah, night) related somehow linguistically? And I think I found the most comprehensive answer in the DDD book.

Genesis tells the creation of woman twice.
Genesis 1: male and female created together.
Genesis 2: woman built later from Adam's rib.
A thread on the Jewish legend that arose to answer the contradiction โ and gave Adam a first wife. ๐งต
4/5 It's not surprising that when this word entered Semitic languages, people (like me) noticed its similarity to the word for 'night.' Because of its succubian nature, it naturally became associated with night creatures. And after a time, it replaced the original meaning.
Tried that Fable to rewrite my old project for Czech pronunciation training. And it's shown the next level from the very beginning. I couldn't come up with a better name for the project. E:\czpron
That was when I started learning Czech. Our teacher, who usually taught Americans, decided to showcase the language's complexity using the accusative case.ย She started, "You know, in some cases, the ending of the word changes, but not always. If it's animate, it changes, otherwise, it isn't. And 'animate' doesn't mean it's alive. For example, the word 'snowman' is not actually alive, but should change."
And I can see how that would blow your mind if your native language is English, but since my own language works exactly the same way, I just nodded along.
Every language looks scary when you explain it to an English-speaking person. First, I encountered ืืช in Duolingo, and the explanation there was really hard to follow: it's kind of a definite article, but it's used only in certain cases to show the subject and object. Fortunately, it was times when Duolingo wasn't shit yet. And some good soul wrote in the comments that it's accusative. And it's the only explanation that was needed

The most-written word in Hebrew is a 3,000-year-old emergency repair.
The word is et โ ืึตืช โ the tiny particle Hebrew places before a definite direct object.
A thread on why Hebrew needs this two-letter patch. ๐งต
@elongilad I mean it's kind of selective and works only for defined objects. In slavic languages it's kind of selective too, because it changes the subject only in case it's animated. So it felt quite natural
@ZackKorman The most frustrating thing is when you see evidences of active Claude usage in a threat actors logs, but when you try to use it to analyze their malware, you get hit with a safety block (their form didn't help at all).
The software supply chain has a new predator. ๐
Meet Iron Worm, the "rustier cousin" of the infamous Shai-Hulud worm. Just like its predecessor, it burrows into dev environments, steals credentials, and self-propagates through trusted GitHub and npm workflows.
Except this one is built in heavy, async Rust, hides behind an eBPF kernel rootkit, and talks over Tor.

Since I'm stuck at home with the flu this weekend, I'm planning to finish 137: Jung, Pauli, and the Pursuit of a Scientific Obsession. The whole premise already sounds like a fever dream: a genius physicist meets a genius therapist, and they end up reinforcing each other's fascination with the symbolism of the number 137.
Cutting-edge physics, psychoanalysis, Kabbalah, science, and just a hint of madness. No way this could happen in real life but it did.
