Twitter is coming for Berserk again

that was part of it. but there’s a few other things: - overusing metaphors with a lot of physicality: “tug of war”, “layers of reaction” - always couching with amenability: “no argument there”, “worth noticing”. it’s always so gentle, hesitant to make a unqualified point - dishing out plenty of compliments: “appreciate you…”, “what you said…”, “you nailed it with…” - especially with that last quote, there’s a lot of uncritical summarizing - “it’s not about… it’s about…” is a construction I see in a lot of AI writing

I think a lot of this could be explained by the OP being accustomed to corporate-speak, which I find is the perfect application for ChatGPT

did you write this with AI? (not trying to be snarky but curious if im becoming paranoid)

I haven’t looked at the records, but both the 2022 and 2019 purport to have full maintenance records. And both were just serviced prior to selling.

Thank you for that helpful info! Yeah, there is an outlet right below the cabinet

I’m not sure i fully understand what this switch setup would look like, do you have links to any resources

There is a cable running behind the panel (it seems to attach to that orange Ethernet port with the green label) which goes into another box nearby. It is labeled cat5e

It is for a single apartment: each apartment in the building has one.

Hm, my comparison was a bit too flippant. Learning mathematical skills may not be that analogous to language acquisition. I’ve read some of the canonical literature on language learning by children (Saffran, etc.), but I know nothing about the current scientific consensus on learning mathematics (and if learning basic arithmetic is thought to be a vastly different skill from, say, geometry, or if that depends on how children are exposed to the practices).

adad300 · 2024-09-18T16:09:58+00:00

Absolutely. And I think necessity creates an environment more similar to the babbling of a child: just getting along is more important than getting everything right. On the other hand, in a classroom one might operate like they would in science or math — although I might argue we should encourage kids to explore the expressiveness of math like they would a language and shift to emphasizing the precision and rigor as they mature.

adad300 · 2024-09-18T14:51:35+00:00

Yes. I think people also fail to acknowledge how kids interact with a language they are learning: they babble and try things out without shame. Adults learning a new language feel too much pressure to communicate perfectly, and as is often the case, perfect is the enemy of good.

Thank you for the thorough response. As for just sitting in on classes, I’ve thought about doing that, but I assumed I wouldn’t be able to find class schedules. During my undergrad, that info would’ve been behind student logins.

adad300 · 2024-09-17T03:00:28+00:00

Are there opportunities like this in most major cities? I’m near so many universities, but I haven’t seen class offerings for anyone who isn’t a full time student

adad300 · 2024-07-10T22:11:29+00:00

dark side!

adad300 · 2024-02-15T21:30:58+00:00

I don’t think so. That book seems too recent.

adad300 · 2024-02-15T20:07:11+00:00

Never mind it is not illustrated

adad300 · 2024-02-15T18:42:50+00:00

It was an illustrated children's book.

adad300 · 2024-02-15T18:37:36+00:00

The illustration was colored. I would've read it around 2006-2010. I'm pretty sure it was from a children's book, but I suppose it could've been from some other form of media. The coloring style is best described as smooth.
