It's easier because your child is like an extension of yourself. I think changing your own kid's diaper is a walk in the park unless there's a big mess!
Hi, thanks for this! Not sure if you're aware that clicking Australia goes to American Samoa, similar issue with some others that I encountered (Bahamas -> Burkina faso).
https://www.languagereactor.com is something similar to Yabla I think... But you can use it indefinitely and subscribe if you need the premium features.
I would argue that it's harder for me to decide how easily I recalled a word and decide between a few loosely defined levels as to which one I should choose than to apply a simple algorithm.
If the window loses focus it would be able to pause automatically. If you are distracted another way, no big deal you will see that word again soon and unlikely to keep getting distracted on the same word. The benefits would outweigh the odd misfire.
It's surprising how much easier to translate a foreign when it's given in a sentence. Also helps when there are multiple translations for a word depending on context.
One way it could grade you automatically is by the speed of flipping the card (or entering the correct answer). If it took less than a second to confirm then evidently it was easy.
Amazing approach! Is learning a second language too different from the types of courses Miyagi was designed for, or do you see a potential for that category?
Using speech to text you could say the answer and it could validate your answer. If AI engine is powerful enough it could have you say the foreign word and rate your pronunciation.
As for spaced repetition I developed an alternative which just has a column for number of times correct answer was given and order by descending order on that field. This gives you new words first followed by words you've barely gotten correct etc
You could use the data you've collected in the DB to generate a quiz that tests your knowledge of the words.
If you track how many times you entered the correct answer and sort by descending order on that field you will be presented with the least known words first. Easy alternative to spaced repetition.
Highways seem like they're safer than other roads but if we had fully autonomous highways I imagine speed limits could be effectively removed drastically reducing travel time.
I'm curious how people pronounce this when they've never heard it. Do people assume the 'e' is silent as in "eye". For anyone curious it's basically "Turkey-yeah" & the "yeah" is short.
One I've experienced on GitHub and Jira is dragging to select text on a dialog, if you release outside the dialog the mouse up event dismisses the pop up which is probably a side effect of being able to click outside the dialog to dismiss it.
Next day at work.. "hey Joe why are you squinting the whole time?"
"Ah that... Well, thing is my glasses are so smudged, but I don't wanna forget how they got that way ;)"
"Ah! Say no more."
Are there any apps specifically targetted at polyglots? It's a niche so I doubt it. I guess you can tell the app that you're native french speaker learning German if you are more proficient in French and picking up German. This way you are training two languages simultaneously.
