This sounds more toxic to me, tbf

I’m afraid it’s DLC only content, and requires a lot of macro-transactions

Well then they will have to slightly extend the term (until death do them part)

Thanks for the links, yeah, I think I thought about distinction of a lesser extent between the colloquial and official variants, at least in the West

Oh, I didn’t know that, neat. Then there’s no space for nit-picking

Yes, but it still is about language, not game engine.

Albeit technically, the statement is correct, since it is more specific.

Schools do teach, and once students are out of elementary school they never write a letter of cursive again. So in effect, it could’ve been not taught at all.

It feels like having a “book dialect” that is only used on TV and not quite spoken by actual people is not too uncommon. At least in Japan it is such, afaik. But to some extent in China, and I think that the UK also has newscasts in more ‘standard’ English than actual English.

This looks like some kind of doom:

{“data”:{“error”:“Imgur is temporarily over capacity. Please try again later.”},“success”:false,“status”:403}

Not only them, and I’m not here to blame 😅

There’s no such thing as “zeroith” because it’s called “zeroth — being numbered zero in a series”

This works for building storeys, this would work equally well for tables. The only reason this is not used often is because the series are rarely zero-based in anything that doesn’t also want to equate index and offset.

You’re right that first may be read as “opposite of last”, that would add to the confusion, but that’s just natural language not being precise enough.

Edit: spelling

Edit2: also, if you extend that logic, when you’re presented with an ordinal number, you would need to first check all the options, sort them, and then apply the position you’re asked, that’s not really how people would expect ordinal number to be treated, not me, at the very least

Ach, well, a known method to create a nice discussion

It’s just an old rant, some people can’t get over the fact systemd exists

uBlock Origin is also not piracy, but it is the real way to block

I’d say it’s a matter of what are the chances of bad advice. If something people on the internet are talking about is widely known, there would also be papers with research, and I’m better off reading that. If it’s a niche stuff, their talk on the internet doesn’t bear statistical significance anyway.

Sure, there are scammers and incompetent doctors, but I would rather ask several people with a medical license, than several thousand laymen that think they are competent enough to give advices

Albeit talking face to face is only a necessary condition, it’s not enough for trusting the person to advise you

Narrator: And that, folks, is how we got the Utopia we live in, by replacing all the work with AI, and letting people enjoy their lives

CEO: why not both?

Stupid actions in adding unsanitized AI output to search results are real, those very specific memetic searches leading to single Reddit comment seem to not be real

Seems not, as several people failed to reproduce it. At least, not yet real
