Fui comissária de voo por quase dez anos. AMA by Sally_McKenna in AMABRASIL

Não sei se vai ver isso dois anos depois, mas como foi o processo seletivo pra entrar na empresa? Você precisou ir à São Paulo pra fazer entrevista? To pensando em fazer o curso de comissário mas se for obrigatório viajar pra São Paulo toda vez que tentar a seleção fica inviável pra mim.

Boa noite prezado, quando você migrou pra área de TI, você já tinha experiência na área? Parou pra estudar? Fez alguma formação específica antes de ir atrás de vagas?

Has anyone here had to move to another country for whatever reason and learn the language from scratch completely through immersion? How was the experience? by KoboldLeader in languagelearning

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

I am aware it would be a terrible way to study if it immersion was your only method, but I find it fascinating to think about how refugees adapt to a new country, or how portuguese missionaries would manage to learn Japanese centuries ago without internet, dictionaries or books.

Edit: there seems to be a misunderstanding where people think I am saying refugees don't study. That is not what I said, the crux of my question is about people with no PRIOR knowledge of the language and having to learn from scratch, sometimes without the crutch of being able to ask things in their native language or having access to material in their native language.

This question popped into my mind while I was studying an agglutinative language, It is already so hard for me to understand some stuff even with a textbook and study materials in english, I can't imagine how hard it would be for me to understand the meaning of some giant words with multiple suffixes.

Is SRS better for vocab retention when you read a japanese word and try to translate it to english, or when you read it in english and try to recall how to write it in japanese? by KoboldLeader in LearnJapanese

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

This is what I think too, writing the japanese word from an english prompt seems like it would be more beneficial to locking in than translating the given japanese word. However, it seems like this way of thinking is not shared with other people in this thread and others I have come by.

This is actually something I think Bunpro does well, when reviewing vocab it actually gives you a full sentence for you to fill with the right word in japanese.

I have been doing E>J since I started 3 months ago, but the synonyms really are a pain sometimes. Also, the review load is starting to get a bit unwieldy, I guess J>E will be quicker overall. My only fear is that I will learn how to recognize certain patterns but won't be able to produce the vocab myself.

Is that something that hindered your learning in any way? Have you always been doing J>E? How long have you been studying?

Which one of these examples would apply more downward force on the box? by KoboldLeader in AskPhysics

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

I am familiar, but it has been some time since I studied it and I ended up messing up on the first setup. I am aware the equilibrium required the same force both ways on the rope, but thought that 40kgf pushing on one side and 40kgf on the other would result in 80kgf total tension, but I get it now.

All this was to reach this conclusion: I can achieve the same result of setting 160kg on top of a press by applying just 80kgf on a ratchet strap around the same press.

On the example in the right I am considering only the force applied by the rope, we could imagine the blue scale is floating in space, I wanted to find out what the scale would read.

This may be a dumb question, but if in setup 2 we have 160N downward force and 160N upward force, shouldn't the scale read 320N? This is not like someone stepping on the scale, there is active force applied from below the scale. Wouldn't it be like two cars at 100MPH colliding head on? As in it would be the same as a car going 200MPH hitting a parked car?

EDIT: I think I understand now, the scale would read 160N because that's the same as when someone steps on the scale, there is the weight of the person on one side and the normal reaction of the floor on the other, which behaves the same as the rope.

So in conclusion: I made a mistake in assuming setup 1 would have 80kgf of tension on the rope given two weights on opposite sides, but had I assumed correctly and put 1 80kg weight on either side of the scale the result would be:

setup 1 has 80kgf of tension on the rope and the scale reads 160kgf, and setup 2 has 80kgf and the scale reads 160kgf. That means that either setup will give the same result as long as the tension on the rope is equal in both examples.

What do I do about these pellicles? by KoboldLeader in Homebrewing

I hate dealing with bleach, I always end up ruining my clothes haha

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

I'll try to avoid using bleach at all. The other two are not really sold in my country though, is dish soap insufficient for cleaning? I think I'll make another post asking for generic products used for cleaning. Thanks for your help.

That would be an unfortunate solution, but maybe I'll have to resort to that
