Y'all, it's adorable and he's got a sister
Did y'all know you can teach language spatially?
Eagle eyed readers might be able to spot the fact that I might have a slightly different relationship with language than most
Did you know it can be hereditary?
No worries, Daddy's whole jam is isomorphic systems made of middleware
Grammar is grammar right?
Context is context right?
Does it matter if you're collecting the shape of a sprout, the verb, subject and object or a sentence or a build artifact and its associated infrastructure resources along the way?

Perhaps why it's so easy to remember where useful things are in video games?
"Our findings highlight the benefits of using human-centred technologies that – as opposed to current navigation systems – promote the encoding and memorability of spatial information during navigation, and have the potential to train human spatial navigation abilities in the long term as a countermeasure toward GPS cognitive deskilling of population."

#Butterflies can remember where things are over sizeable spaces
August 7, 2023, University of Bristol
"Heliconius butterflies are capable of spatial learning, scientists have discovered.
"The results provide the first experimental evidence of spatial learning in any butterfly or #moth species.
The findings, published today in Current Biology, also suggest Heliconius butterflies may be able to learn spatial information at large scales, consistent with the apparent importance of long-range spatial learning for traplining, which involves foraging within a home range of a few hundred square metres.
"Spatial learning is known in insects, but much of the research has focused on #ant and #bee species which live socially in a communal nest. This study provides the first direct evidence of spatial learning in butterflies or moths, and suggests that complex learning skills, such as the use of spatial information, may be more common in insects than previously thought."
