bouteillebleuUrgh, shouldn't have gone googling for blog posts about NLP this evening after a conversation in the pub.
Some of this stuff is a mixture of useful advice and simplistic nonsense, with an extra dose of creepy in the form of how to use "hypnotic language" when talking to someone.
(Also, the author talks about linguistic presuppositions, kind of almost explains them sensibly (presuppositions are pretty much the unspoken assumptions that go along with a spoken/written sentence and are kind of its context), and then something about hypnotic effects? What?)
[1] The acronym mentioned in the title being Natural Language Processing, which includes things like automatic language translation, search engines, and other things involving computers processing text.
