Thanks, I didn't know it was called that. And yes, I had the same impression about spelling contests

That happens with Spanish. Most of the time is WYSIWYS (What you see is what you say).

What a short-sighted attitude. Colonizing Mars opens the door to a lot of advances in many, many fields. At first it will be difficult and expensive as it has happened with every n…

I wonder if this could be use on RPG games in which there are so many texts and dialogs that having a recorded voice for all of them is impracticable.

I totally agree and I would love to see this idea implemented in many other places but sadly not all the countries share the same mentality that Japan has about social duties.

I really like this idea. You have your personal space (I saw a video in which you even have a small kitchen and bathroom in your room) and then the rest are shared areas. I don't b…

You can tell them "A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to."

Make some groups, teach them an easy method to encrypt messages (like Vigenère cipher) and let them play writing encrypted messages between groups or think about a game in which th…

Well, if a swallow can carry a coconut, it can also carry a flightless bird :p

Exactly what is happening with planes. I'm still astonished every time I get into one and see the missing row 13. It's so ridiculous...

> The reader must have equal opportunity with the detective for solving the mystery. All clues must be plainly stated and described. Many TV shows fail on this point trying to surp…

That can be an issue too when they use that knowledge to brush off the trouble as not a big deal.

There are some online services like 7cups in which people talk with strangers about their problems just to vent, allowing them to talk freely without being judged. For example, man…

First, it was never stated to do that from a balcony so how would have known that the person to whom it was suggested? But leaving that aside, can you grant me for sure that there …

You shouldn't recommend people to scream to a group of people "Shut the fuck up" because it's not only unpolite but it can be the source of a lot of problems for that person. Be co…

Well, when you type "If, for, foreach, switch, GoTo, Resume, Continue, Break..." you are already using English so I would say that if you are able to code, then you are capable of …

If you want to help him, there's something you can do: Try to practice with him those situations in which he struggles. Start with simple scenarios where you pretend to be someone …

> The only problem was that my writing was miles ahead of my speaking That surprises me because Spanish is one of the few languages that what you read is pretty much what you have …

I would say that it makes total sense not to be able to identify oneself in those categories, because they are white-black options and we are influenced by many variables to be abs…

“Do you understand what I'm saying?" shouted Moist. "You can't just go around killing people!" "Why Not? You Do." The golem lowered his arm. "What?" snapped Moist. "I do not! Who t…

> Today, Windows is for miserable people who can't afford anything better. So do you consider "miserable people who can't afford anything better" all those gamers with Ultra PCs?

I would consider that an addiction as much as I would consider a carpenter to be addicted to a hammer. At least for the scenarios you have described. If you can't stop using those …
