“Grok” way predates xitter and predates elon himself by a decade. It was coined by Heinlein in ‘Stranger in a Strange Land’ and means ‘to understand fully’.

Just because some ass-hat uses a word doesn’t immediately give it a negative connotation.

Yes, I’ve read it, and I’m aware, it’s a common pairing with his quasi-fascist work in Starship Troopers.

It spent a hundred pages pondering the concept of words in an alien language that don’t necessarily translate to English!

Wow!

Big think!

Don’t let the nerdy ancap incels have it!
