- Welcome to Slovenia. #syntaxfest is in full swing and the agenda is off the charts. #syntax #semantics #morphosynyactic #linguistics #language
- The team are heading to Slovenia on Monday to attend the biannual #syntaxfest DM to meet and discuss #LSTM architectures and the application of the CoNLL-U standard to #lowresourcelanguages and #indigenouslanguage #nolanguageleftbehind syntaxfest.github.io/syntaxfest25/
- If true, extremely worrying. At Bezoku, we believe that language technology must be in the hands of community leaders. The unprecedented centralization of control of tech is dystopian. We need to offer better alternatives 👊

- Reposted by bezoku"200 yrs ago, the State we now call Mexico was established. After 300 yrs of the Spanish Conquista, in 1862, 65% of the population spoke an indigenous language. Today, we speakers of indigenous languages make up 6.5%… Our languages are not dying, they are being killed." - Yásnaya Aguilar #LangSky
