Lab Meeting, Autumn 2016, Week 6

Read Lexical representations are malleable for about one second: Evidence for the non-automaticity of perceptual recalibration, Samuel (2016)! Dan and Xin will talk about this paper, couched in a discussion on the role of attention in perceptual adaptation

Awe- and Aw-inspiring readings (or just stuff you think deserves a mention)

Andrew

  1. Wrote a README for the language survey and looked over the code so I could raise a skeptical eyebrow at 18 month ago me.

  2. Read documentation for React, which has become the dominant reactive JavaScript library, and I'm thinking of rewriting some stuff I've previously done using other libraries with it.
