Not sure I've seen this change-in-progress in writing before. The verb 'are' agrees with the things just before it ('bikes' and 'larger items'), not with 'space', which is the (singular) subject of the verb.

In response to my rant yesterday, I was asked how we can make better parks and other public places for teenage girls? What do they want? I have answers to this, so now a positive 🧵. Starting in Sweden, where this was co-designed by teenage girls.

"In our geopolitically volatile age, with global supply chains exposed and defence and diplomacy the watchwords of the day, language degree closures represent a loss of critical linguistic and cultural skills." Well said. Learning languages is a skill we need.

Call me Cassandra, but if you make thousands of HEI staff either compulsorily or 'voluntarily' redundant and create conditions in which senior staff take early retirement in an attempt to save more junior colleagues' careers without significant new hiring, a critical loss is exactly what happens.

Excellent overview of current theory, and hopefully interesting for colleagues in #CA. "it is not always clear how posited categories are realised in spontaneous speech... but existing studies suggest that caution is needed when we assert the generalizability of laboratory data."

Our paper @sarabogels.bsky.social covering our pre-registered multi-year research is now finally out in Cognition. We show that in conversations people reduce their multimodal signals non-linearly; the steeper this non-linear drop-off the more communicative success. www.wimpouw.com/files/Bogels...

A busy figure showing how reduction of different types of multimodal signals reduces over experimental rounds (with a comparison of how a non-linear signal following a power law can be transformed to a linear slope using a log-transformation).
