    Do you mean the short-term memory needed to apply the commutators or the conjugates? Otherwise you only really need to "memorize" the steps of the method. I learned this method aro…

    The Heise method might be a great fit for you. Unlike most methods, it requires no memorization. And, unlike most methods that require no algs, it can be quite fast. AND it forces …

    I suspect what you're saying could definitely be a phenomenon. However, in this case, I think it's just a matter of domain and context. I speak both English and Spanish natively, h…

    Hmm, I may be misreading your comments in this thread but it sounds like you're not okay with languages simply... evolving? You are aware that importing words is a thing, right? Ev…

    It's been mostly reduced to free software projects channels/networks and just semi-private channels for groups of friends who've been on IRC for years now. So #archlinux, #dolphin-…

    You just have to love Stephen Merity. His work on QRNN's saved me quite a bit of time and money when I was doing my undergrad dissertation on language models. This SHA-RNN seems to…

    It'd be cool see some stats for the results people get. I'm sure a lot of people are taking the quiz right now. Could we find what makes people procrastinate most often? Spoiler, I…

    Aside from V-2 already commented on, I'd like to add that spelling mistakes such as > "it's" as a possessive are mostly native-speaker exclusive. Your/you're, there/their, etc. spe…

    Off the top of my head, most romance languages. You could argue some German dialects as well, Japanese, etc. Maybe even Chinese depending on your definition of 'vowel'. Are you tal…

    They controlled for that by having about as many fraternal twins in this study, though. It's particularly surprising to me that they got very similar results with regards to discre…
