Henri Meschonnic
Henri Meschonnic (18 September 1932, Paris – 8 April 2009, Villejuif) was a French poet, linguist, essayist and translator. He is remembered today as both a theoretician of language and as a translator of the Old Testament. The 710-page Critique du rythme, probably remains his most famous theoretical work.[1] As a translator of the Old Testament he published many volumes, including Les cinq rouleaux in 1970 (Song of Songs, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther); Jona et le signifiant errant in 1998 (Jonah); Gloires in 2000 (Psalms); Au commencement in 2002 (Genesis); Les Noms in 2003 (Exodus); Et il a appelé in 2005 (Leviticus); and Dans le désert in 2008 (Numbers).[2]

gollark: Gigabit Ethernet can consistently deliver 1Gbps basically regardless of conditions and is widely supported and various fibre optic standards can do 10Gbps or 40Gbps (much higher is ridiculously expensive).
gollark: Theoretically 802.11ax/WiFi 6 can do 3Gbps or something. Practically, you can't get all that throughput on one device, your devices are probably 802.11ac or 802.11n, and the wireless environment isn't going to be utterly perfect and free of noise.
gollark: 8.
gollark: 1Gbps is pretty common in saner countries.
gollark: I don't think you can get consumer 8Gbps service anywhere.
