the drawings are too abstract for her. they would be a drawing of a mother and three children, and then a drawing of a green crotch.

What's happening?!?!
Hofstadter is super smug and annoying to read, but it's worth it just to see him saying that he'd translate Sagan's "Bonjour, Tristesse" as "Howdy, Blues" because everything else is too literal

Forktoss

I'm OK, you're so-so
Just this morning I read an article by Hofstadter on machine translation, and it's weird because he says a lot of things that are correct (like that translation is about understanding and recreating meaning, not just decoding language) but instead of using these basic observations as basis for any further discussion, he presents them as amazing revelations that are supposed to blow your mind. It's like he studies translation out of (self-serving) admiration rather than any desire to truly understand it, and just ends up mystifying and mythicising very basic notions of modern translation theory that are, in reality, just the first principles you have recognise before discussing translation seriously at all. He enthuses endlessly about how he's come to the earth-shattering revelation that "maybe when I translate... I can change some words??" and is also super duper smug about it all the time.

tl;dr Hofstadter is a humanities weeaboo
