little Timmy
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: little Timmies
Etymology: Perhaps from Tiny Tim, or Lassie trope.
Senses: examples: text: Suburbanites were uniformly young in the late fifties. Everybody was married; everybody had children. Like birds of a feather, we were eager to join up with the flock. Magazines and television had been promoting the image for almost ten years: Saturday-night backyard barbecues with friends; neighbors sharing freshly baked coffee cakes; a wide sidewalk for little Timmy to ride his tricycle. The perfect life, and most of us wanted it.
ref: 1978, Paula McDonald, Guilt-free, →OCLC:
text: If you want little Timmy to be considered attractive and intelligent by your friends (and who doesn't?), he must learn to greet people pleasantly.

They are not going to enter a Twisted Metal competition in which they will duel to the death in their vehicle, nor will they explore the trackless reaches of the Arctic. You are going to drive to the mall and bring little Timmy to soccer practice.
ref: 2005 November 11, The Omen Archives:
text: Parents — when trying to get little Timmy to let go of his friend's truck or come when you call, please don't count to three before expecting him to act. Or five. Or ten. All it does is give your child license to do whatever they want for two more seconds. Or four. Or nine. There is value to immediate obedience.
ref: 2012, Diana and Holly Parks, I Didn't See Me Do It: A Double Take on the First Twenty Years:
text: "Why did we bring all this firepower if we're not going to use it?" Brett protested.

spatial computing
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Senses: examples: text: I define spatial computing as human interaction with a machine in which the machine retains and manipulates referents to real objects and spaces. Ideally, these real objects and spaces have prior significance to the user. For instance, a system that allows users to create virtual forms and install them into the actual space surrounding them is spatial computing. A system that allows users to place objects from their environments into a machine for digitization is spatial computing. Spatial computing differs from related fields such as 3D modeling and digital design in that it requires the forms and spaces it deals with to pre-exist and have real-world valence. It is not enough that the screen be used to represent a virtual space—it must be meaningfully related to an actual place.[…] It is an essential component for making our machines fuller partners in our work and play.
ref: 2003 May 16, Simon Greenwold, Spatial Computing (thesis):
text: Apple insists that its $3,500 Vision Pro ski goggles, which officially debuted Friday, is not virtual reality but “spatial computing.” One problem: No one agrees on the definition of spatial computing. Ask 10 people in technology and you might get 12 different answers. What Apple calls a spatial computer, some technologists call “mixed reality” — or possibly “augmented reality,” “holographic computing,” “the metaverse” or “XR,” which some people say is shorthand for “extended reality.” […] “Even I can’t get my head on straight of what things mean all of the time,” said Alex Coulombe, co-founder of Agile Lens, which calls itself an XR company. Coulombe started to tell me that spatial computing and XR are the same — but changed his mind midsentence. […] What is spatial computing, anyway? I’m going to define it as an immersive video feed of the physical world plus the internet. […] Some experts instead use spatial computing as a catchall term for a range of technologies, including 3D images, virtual reality and smartphone games such as “Pokémon Go.”
ref: 2024 February 2, Shira Ovide, “Apple's Vision Pro is 'spatial computing.' Nobody knows what it means”, in Washington Post, retrieved 02 Feb 2024:
glosses: A computing paradigm powered by three-dimensional desktop environments, such as an extended reality window manager, usually accessed through wearables such as headsets.

text: The Millennial generation includes women born between 1981 and 2000 (depending upon which source you reference). That means the oldest Millennials are entering their 40s, well within the time frame when perimenopause can begin. It's time to reckon with "Millenopause."
ref: 2022 January 10, Angela Rosoff, “Millenopause – it's a thing”, in The C Word Mag, archived from the original on 10 Jan 2022:
text: Millennials have grown up. We've hit middle age, started to show signs of aging — even of aging out of the internet and into something called "millenopause." We now have to work harder than ever to stay culturally relevant, as Gen Z and (gasp) Gen Alpha seize the attention of marketing departments and the media.

text: What gives us away — our hemlines, our hairstyles, our slang? Whatever it is, there is nothing more embarrassing, apparently, than a millennial. Especially a geriatric millennial, at the upper end of the 28-43 age bracket, fast approaching middle age, our "millenopause".

text: To go through menopause is to confront the truth that our bodies are machines that run on their own, finite timeline: once you've stopped menstruating, it's just a matter of time before you also stop breathing. To go through millenopause, on the other hand, is to hold your mortality at a cute, narrative remove. Menopause is existential dread; millenopause is a viral hashtag and a video of you taking your HRT out of a pastel-coloured subscription box.

text: It's not exactly a promising premise: a washed-up boxer turned sleazy promoter finds a champion on the underground robot-boxing circuit, bonding with his estranged son in the process. To call it hypercalculated is an understatement (our critic parsed its DNA as "'Transformers' meets 'E.T.' meets 'Rocky' meets 'The Champ,'" and that's not far off), but as Roger Ebert liked to say, it's not what a movie's about, but how it's about it.
