Elon is not going to personally take responsibility for his cars?

that is even better, become a bot account.

We need a tool to post random comments on random YT videos.

Use free Anki and get a free 1k or 5k high-frequency community deck from Anki website. Or get Refold 1k deck (paid) for anki.

If you find Anki too complicated and you don’t mind paying a sub (look for discount/vouchers), use lingvist (paid) or memrise (not sure how this app is now after the changes) to learn 1k words. Any app that focuses on high frequency vocab is fine I think.

Cancel subscription once you have learnt 1k words or can read comfortably a simple native book or graded books, or understand a podcast designed for learner (example InnerFrench), probably will take 1-3 months at about 10-30 words a day.

The main difference between 1k and 5k decks is that the 5k decks include very common type of words like “the”, “a”, “he”, “she”, “is”, “are”, which are so high frequency that you will acquire them by just doing anything in the language. Either type of deck is fine, it is up to you.

Try reading graded readers with audio at the same time as you are going through your deck so you are getting more context for new words you learn. You will encounter new words while reading before seeing them in the deck, which has a positive effect in remembering the word. Reading also helps serve to test how much you have improved in using the language.

Read up on some basic high frequency grammar in your target language. Depending on language you will have to also actively learn the alphabet, numbers, phonic and so on before doing any of the above.

The main idea of learning high frequency vocab is to start consuming content as soon as possible. Never forget that using(reading, listening, writing, speaking) the language is the main purpose of learning languages.

If you like gamification and keeping scores, count the books/article read, count the words learnt, count the hours spend listening don’t count coins or gems.

You don’t like doing it so you ask something else to do it for you.

If you like religious topics for language learning, that is up to you. I could care less what topics you like.

I won’t go to that school to learn language since I am not interested in religious stuff. I know people who read the bible in Target language to learn. I know there are churches that conduct very extensive language learning courses where you learn a new language within 9 weeks.

For me, i prefer to watch and read sci-fi, fantasy, conspiracy stuff, biography, crime and science topics to learn language. At the end of the day the topic has to be interesting enough for you to keep consuming content in the target language.

if you like spiders, go and learn your TL by reading every book on spiders. I could care less what topic you use to learn a language.

It is paid by consumers, not Apple. Other phone companies will raise prices as well to increase their profits, since iPhone prices will set a new high price. When Apple prices goes up 25% other phone companies can increase their prices by 15% and still be competitive to apple.

Actually to make same profit due to lower phone sales Apple may have to raise price even higher than 25% or find other ways to get consumers to pay more. Die hard fans of Apple will buy, whatever the price.

zero day exploits?

The wrong thing I am talking about is language related, grammar, pronunciation, vocab, spelling, translation. Are those conspiracy theory topic and bible topics taught using correct grammar, spelling, vocab, translation, pronunciation and etc? If they are then I could care less what the topic is so long as it is interesting to me.

Human can make mistakes but one clear difference I notice is that a human teacher will correct her past error in previous lesson but AI never does that.

Duolingo CEO should be replaced by AI.

I liked the short stories, but they messed that up, too.

replace them with AI.

I noticed too many hallucinations in AI, We don’t want to learn the wrong things. For beginners, the risk of learning the wrong thing is high and just add to confusion. I switched back to humans for most things.

I switched over to Affinity since 2019. I never saw any need to go back to Adobe.

I know that guy he told me he knows of a colleague who was convinced that the earth is spherical and vaccines are great.
