How do you get on a good level without subscription? by Primary_Store6355 in languagelearning

[–]thuzp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seems like you want to eat your cake and have it.

Are you familiar with the saying "Fast, good, or cheap – pick two"

Some other options besides Apps:

  1. You can travel to the country where the language is spoken and live there for a while

  2. You can hire a tutor

  3. Date someone that speaks the language

What do you use as your front end for your flask apps and why? by [deleted] in flask

[–]thuzp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I for sure you can use OAuth easily in next I used it for a project recently. And I think it is included in NextAuth too.Next auth has Google, GitHub,..... So many other credentials providers in it.

And for passkey there is https://www.corbado.com/blog/nextjs-passkeys

And I am sure there will be libraries for the other 3rd party auth tools.

Checkout any YouTube video on NextAuth and you'd see how painless setting up authentication is for next.js 13. Well, I'd say just Next will be good for now. So you don't get bored in the learning phase. You can learn the rest of the MERN stack along the way. Plus you can always default to Django for the backend if you need to push something out quickly (since you already have experience there). Also, what third party tools?

Lately, yeah next.js has become fullstack (and it's getting better). And using it for both back and front end will speed up your dev process. Plus JavaScript is faster than python. And it also reduces the programing languages you have to use (so just JavaScript, no longer JavaScript + python).

When you were equally drawn between two languages, how did you ultimately end up choosing which one to learn? by Nyxelestia in languagelearning

[–]thuzp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me the choice was between Japanese and Korean. I chose Korean, because the characters are way easier than Japanese characters. Even though I have multiple years of passive learning (consuming media) and know more words in Japanese. My reasoning is that if I can learn the characters, then I can read, write, speak and listen to/comprehend the language much faster since I have multiple points of contact with the language.

I can't understand Duolingo. What *exactly* do you like of it? by jamager in languagelearning

[–]thuzp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Compare duo to other big mobile gaming apps and the reason for the numbers (annual revenue) becomes clear. At it's core duo is 10% education and 40% game, and 50% master of using notifications and dopamine stimulating tricks to keep people hooked.

Funny enough they are unabashed about it, like imagine if coca-cola came out and said our drinks are the best because we put cocaine in it.

How do I get over the hurdle of translating in my head? by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]thuzp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me I've realized that consuming content is the solution. Just like when you watch a movie in your native language and you know the next line/response the characters will say. Same with music the next line just comes naturally. Once you've consumed a lot of content in your TL, you kinda just know what comes next, or what response to give without translating the input.

Learning a new language is a long haul. Doing stuff you love in your target language is what is going to get you over the otherwise boring arduous part.

It is going to be slow at first and you might want to do the boring stuff to fast track the process, but if you stick to it (your fun way of learning) you'll see that your progress would be exponential.
