We're coming into the final stretch of 2025. And I thought I'd share some new words that I have learned this year. Now they may not be new you all young, hip, jive crazy cool cats, but they're new to me, and if they're new to you as well, then you'll learn them in much the same way that I did:

Against my will.

Clanker (noun)

Clanker is a derogatory term for robots and AI technology.

We may already have the word of the year, if not the decade: clanker. Originating from the Star Wars universe, it has become a catch-all term used to refer to robots and AI. Any technology can be referred to as a clanker.

Cogsucker (noun)

A cogsucker is someone a little too obsessed with LLMs, chatbots, and AI companions. Whether they're using ChatGPT as a therapist, falling in love with Grok, or treating Replika like a best friend, these are examples that you can find populating the /r/cogsuckers subreddit

The coining of the word "familect" to describe pronunciations, odd words, and linguistic quirks that exist within families and other small, intimate groups is such a delight, and explains a lot of the peculiar ways I say things.

#newwords 昨天改掉了几个不爽的点。

1. 现在新开app会主动弹出加生词的对话框
1. 现在加生词后立即看到词汇解释而不是先到词汇列表
1. 词汇解释页也添加了加生词的按钮（随时随地加生词）

感谢 deepseek v3 0324。

#newwords 今天把后台API自动部署搞完了。是用GitHub actions + ssh部署的，颇费了些功夫。

前台web 版本的自动发布也搞定了。感谢GitHub！
