Also, he is wrong.
The space outside the Noosphere is littered with the silently drifting corpses of words and whole language systems, dead and unchanging, forever cut off from being processed by any living mind.

I met a toddler who probably only knows about 5 words today at work. He would continually say “Hi, Hi, Hi, Hi, Hi, Hi, Hi…” the entire time he saw me. granted I only saw him for about 5 minutes but little dude was about to explode with all his ‘hi’-s
His dad looked so tired 😭

“ok dude, you have fun, let me know when you’re done”
