Andrzej Bogusławski

Andrzej Stanisław Bogusławski (born 1 December 1931) is a Polish linguist and a former professor at Warsaw University. He collaborated with Anna Wierzbicka on Natural semantic metalanguage research and is credited by her with reviving the notion of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz's "alphabet of human thought", or Lingua Mentalis.[1]

He was imprisoned in the early 1980s by Polish authorities for refusing to sign a loyalty oath. Noam Chomsky, among other academics, called for his release.[2]

gollark: The biggest challenge would probably be making PotatOS *not* just assume internet connectivity; a lot of it assumes it can just randomly fire off HTTP requests.
gollark: Anyway, PotatOS for x86 would also ship with emulated peripherals if I can somehow make that work, for things like modems (would be translated into multicast UDP packets or something), speakers (probably not with the actual MC sound library), and disk drives.
gollark: I see.
