Skill? LC is testing rote memorization of artificial problems you most likely never encounter in actual work.

"the planet Vulcan in Star Wars" That's interesting...

I think it would help to be able to move up and down (ex. space and shift keys) without changing the camera angle. This seems a better solution, to me, than existing pan with 3rd m…

I'll never understand this "aesthetic" argument. Are those cities really so pretty to avoid using something that naturally comes to mind? Sun, warm, makes things dry, just use it.

I couldn't agree more. After reading article I'm kind of confused about the praise. First of all, vast majority of population just dry their clothes outside. I'd say, while this is…

Sorry, I should probably have stated that since the beginning. I am native I just was surprised about 5 cases. I've never heard about the 2 latter one you've mentioned. I've been t…

A 3 to 5 seems pretty inconclusive. If it's 3 the case seems obvious. But assuming it's 5, what would the genders be?

Or National which is almost all gone today. Or rather rebranded to Panasonic. Before the early 2000s the company was selling most of their products under National brand in Japan. T…

I assume it's a can. No go for me. Not sure about OP. The convenience of half litre bottle is that it's relatively small and you can keep it closed.

Why would they? Author describes his experience in learning the programming language adding some links and tools along the way.

One does not exclude the other, right? I'd say you could split it into functional design and visual design. Both are design. Both are important.

I may be wrong but isn't the submitter warned that this link has been already posted when creating new submission?

Not sure I agree with that. It's not difficult to notice one has "nai", other don't. Also when you read it in actual sentence you can immediately notice that something is wrong whe…

Isn't it common in English, too? Just to mention "vague", "awe", "sigh". There are many others. I see those words and pronunciation is far from obvious to me.

I think taking sides in this debate is pointless. Languages are always as difficult as far they are from your mother tongue or other languages you know. Your question about the rea…

> [everyday Japanese] has nothing to do with the one used in manga Depends on the manga you read. There are plenty of manga revolving around everyday life, so called "slices of lif…

All the examples you gave are pretty obvious to read because of suffixes, called okurigana, or the other kanji next to it. Problem arises only when the kanji stands alone and that …

It's implicit, depending on context. Quite often it's "myself" when omitted and without any context. If you'd like to stick to programming examples, it would be default value. Even…

Spending painful years in classes where we've been taught the grammar extensively I couldn't agree more with those people. Two languages, the same way of teaching and time wasted a…

You still need to skim the page. The same way you can skim video to find the place you remember. I don't see a lot of difference here.

Seeing the wheel of feelings / emotions reminded me, again, that there are people who don't experience most of those. Even if they do, they have a difficulties in describing what d…

Don't worry. You're not the only one. Natives are often lost. Couple of times already I've been asked where the given address is by Japanese person and I am definitely not of Asian…

Maybe it's a thing in foreign company and foreign employees. Plus, note that reddit thread is 6y old and already plenty of answers say are getting nothing from the company. I've ne…

They aren't from my experience working in two major Japanese companies. Sometimes they'll pay your network bill if WFH is allowed, but that's basically it. Not sure about smaller c…

Those are huge wards by themselves. There are plenty of busy as well as residential places. For example, Setagaya-ku - stations like Sangenjaya, Jiyugaoka or Futakotamagawa are far…
