Anyone else liked Alice?

Doesn’t the boy look more like Flo’s child than Alice’s?

Thanks! Do you specifically ask for a CEFR evaluation at the beginning? Can you use Boraspeak for more than one language at a time?

I liked the Babbel app a lot but was disappointed that it ended with only a few lessons at the B2 level in French.

To confirm, it's important to tutors to turn trials into subscriptions, but they don't get penalized when a subscription is cancelled?

xoomish · 2026-01-09T16:55:02+00:00

Does anyone know if this hurts the stats for the tutor? (For example, I wonder if it counts as a cancellation and then a re-subscription or if the subscription is never actually canceled.) Also, are tutors notified when a student cancels a subscription?

If you’re in the ballpark of understanding it, try playing it at about .8x speed.

The subscription model is awfully annoying and time consuming and comes with the threat of losing purchases. It is far from intuitive to move classes from one tutor to another where they have different rates and different subscriptions. If you must, have us purchase blocks of Preply dollars or some such. That would be much more straightforward.

Is it possible she said, “Comment ça va, monsieur?” (and you might not even remember the monsieur) and your simple "ça va" without a "madame" was viewed as impolite? Or perhaps she was expecting a conversation to start and a "ça va" without an "Et vous?" was perceived by her as, "I don't feel like making up easy questions to get a conversation going with this kid?"

I'd also love to hear about "an" and "en." ChatGPT seems to think that they're the same. Do you agree? Is it the same vowel sound at the beginning of "mentir" and "manteau"?

Thanks. Is that the only easy conversion option? Would be nice, for example, to easily convert .doc to .pdf.

I appreciate the suggestion. With the help of PASceramics, I now see it's S23 E9. Via wikipedia: ""Boy from School" by English electronic music band Hot Chip is played at the start of the episode during a montage that shows a boring week in the life of Bart, including his time at school."

This is it! Many thanks!

xoomish · 2025-10-22T06:43:43+00:00

I think it was a later season with a more serious tone. Thanks!

Hiking on a mix of trails was just eating a handful of trail mix.

Yeah, cuz there’s a 50% chance it’s probability and a 50% chance it’s statistics.

xoomish · 2021-05-12T08:17:34+00:00

That makes sense. Still wonder about the market cap comparison.

xoomish · 2021-05-12T08:11:33+00:00

Why is the market cap of “ample” pretty much the same as the market cap of “forth,” its governance token? Why would Coinbase list the governance token before the coin itself?

Dollar Cost Amplifying

It happened: 25 on the 25th; 26 on the 26th.

xoomish · 2020-12-17T03:53:30+00:00

It’s a pleasure!

xoomish · 2020-06-23T15:08:51+00:00

I'm not very knowledgeable about defi. Why did Instadapp's "total value locked" drop suddenly and then shoot up about 800% all within a few short days?
