@RpsAgainstTrump So what’s actually going on that we’re being distracted from in this prestidigitation?

This has really tickled me

@picston_shottle @jesslynnrose @cbrookmyre My first ever German friend told me that the German name for zebra is 'streifenhosenklippenkloppen'. It isn't, it's 'zebra'.

@RachelCharleneL Gossiping only has negative connotations because it’s connected with female behaviour. Gossiping is just another word for talking. Deborah Tannen has written some good work on the subject.

@cryptcrier This is what my son found near the woodpile and has kept it in a jam jar for months.

@iainabernethy Did you have to cut your hand open with a pen knife and rub it on that little sensing square? 😳😷

[Cassandra Derham @CassandraDerham]

@annevclark I think that’s especially true of art “created” by Artificial Intelligence...

@laurenthehough What’s the thinking behind that? Surely they’re not worried that the dog won’t speak the language in another State?! You could assure them that you’ll always put on an Austin accent around the dog...

@nedboulting Just to go off-topic, because I think yours has been answered in the comments: since they wear helmets and singlasses on-bike and masks off-bike, isn’t it lucky we can recognize them by their knees?

@bjh_ip Having said that, the French patent is now harder to obtain since they introduced substantive examination in May 2020. Might as well go straight to Europe if à granted patent is your aim.

@sheriantoinette Please do it. There’s a whole network here that wants to help you to break down any barriers that are in place. ❤️

@carolinehclark Legwarmers and slippers for me. Off-screen but keep me snuggly! X

[Cassandra Derham @CassandraDerham]

@MaxieAllen This is especially weird as fish are inherently movable...

@elliotwhu @JohnDiesattheEn My first meal after giving birth in London, having asked for spaghetti bolognaise, salad and yoghurt, was 8 pieces of macaroni and some gravy, a piece of lettuce and a zero fat yoghurt. Then I was told off for not taking in enough calories to breastfeed. 😢

I like the look of this!

Dear maths tweeps, THE LANGUAGE LOVER'S PUZZLE BOOK is, despite the title, full of maths puzzles: from Sumerian numbers to Incan counting, from Papua New Guinea base systems to word embeddings.

Which is why signed copies are available on @MathsGear
