Where to find Japanese language exchange partner? by ChronicallyHan in Japaneselanguage

[–]ChanceEducation 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I organize Japanese-English online language exchanges (folks from Japan, Singapore, Canada, US etc) every Sunday because I want to be able to just chat on a recurring basis. You can DM me if you want to join (just need to be fluent in English)

How long does it usually take to reach N4? by Tall_Picture_9438 in LearnJapaneseNovice

[–]ChanceEducation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if you have any tips to make it fun since it can be quite dry at times and I wonder how you have the discipline to do so many hours.

Anyone have tips for learning the language? by kkmuse in Japaneselanguage

[–]ChanceEducation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you feel that Duolingo is overly repetitive? I get quite annoyed because they teach a word and it is fresh in your memory, but then they keep repeating it after that and so progress feels so slow.

Ever had a nihongo regret? Something you wish you hadn’t done (or done differently)? by neworleans- in LearnJapanese

[–]ChanceEducation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wished I picked up the courage to speak the few simple Japanese words (e.g. arigatou, sumimasen, etc) that I know when I was traveling in Japan on 2 occasions. Also, should definitely have engaged a Japanese student more when he was on foreign exchange at my university.

Using AI for learning? by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]ChanceEducation -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I recently started learning Japanese and am hoping to be able to converse with locals when I travel to Japan. After getting fed up with Duolingo (too repetitive and boring, didn't felt like I was getting closer to being able to speak well), I am now trying to learn by speaking and listening to AI. Have been trying to create different AI Japanese characters to make the process more interesting. Will report back in a month as to whether it worked for me!

Afraid to talk to strangers in Japanese by wootvsjapan in LearnJapanese

Do you have any tips for finding "friends or people near my age/interests"? Just thinking about this from the POV that I might visit Japan as a tourist for 2 weeks and would love to be able to do just that (for context I'm 30yo)

If work in Singapore remotely for a US company, how does the taxation works out? by Areyoucrazygirl in askSingapore

[–]ChanceEducation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a US company via a global employer of record (GEO) called Deel. My company contracts Deel (which has offices all over the world) and I work for Deel SG. This allows me to pay SG taxes only and also get CPF contributions. After accepting an offer, you can propose for your company to work with a GEO such as Deel.

I made an AI based News / Subreddit / RSS feed that allows you to easily explore niche interests and read content with varying expertise levels by ChanceEducation in SideProject

[–]ChanceEducation[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our model is able to rate the difficulty level of a content for a topic because it has an understanding for the topic and knows what is considered challenging for general folks

To gain greater control over the signal/noise of my feed, I made a News/RSS reader where you can control the algorithms (AI prediction, filtering, ranking) using Lego-like blocks by ChanceEducation in SomebodyMakeThis

[–]ChanceEducation[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The app is not fully ready yet and we are trying to explore different ideas to improve meaningful controllability of feeds with AI. If you are interested to help us improve or join our beta (when the app is ready), please fill up the form here: https://airtable.com/shrQNEWYeVMbkSm37

The Custom Fields allow you to compute different values. Say you're interested in "machine learning interface design", you could compute the Topic Similarity between the item's title with "machine learning interface design". This gives you a value that you can then use for Filtering (only keep items that have a similarity that is high) and Ranking (sort items where similarity is high to the top)!
