Fuuuuck.

Pink, pink everywhere.

I can't use percussive maintenance because I fear I'll damage the new TV >_>

Have you gone to a doctor? It might be just IBS, but you might want to get it checked in case you have celiac disease

Everyone sucks at everything. Until they don't. Not sucking is a product of time invested.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Our newest spambot is just pathetic. At least some of the others tried to look like genuine users.

Have gone to a doctor, no IBS (I don't have any other symptoms thereof,) no celiac disease (I don't have any issues with gluten,) and no crohn's disease, either. From what they gather, there's nothing wrong with my guts, they just don't like large amounts of fiber.

Holy crap, why did I not start watching One Punch Man earlier? This is the best thing.
probably figured an autobiography wouldn't be interesting

Just... one more essay, one crossword puzzle, four short listening comprehension exercises, and four extra-credit works... and then I'll really be done with the Russian work.

Well, I'll also have to do some other stuff, but the main body of this semester's work will really be over with.

And then I have to start taking notes for rhetoric class and working on these translations from Japanese that I promised people.

The xkcd linguistics subforum.

I mean honestly, what good is going to come from trying to decide the "grammatical correctness" of something by applying schema from completely unrelated languages. English does not have a partitive case.

*sigh* One more place I'm never posting.

You don't use freedom Penguin. First you demand it, then you have it.
No using. That's not what freedom is for.

In a thread about using possessive noun phrases.

Quote
The saxon genitive (thanks for introducing me to that term, I'll be sure to use it from now on) is rarely used for partitives in my experience and is almost entirely limited to possession (including relationships e.g. "X's mother") and "of" is usually used for all other genitives although, of course, there are exceptions.

And I dunno the peculiarities of Finno-Ugrian grammar, but I'm pretty sure that the partitive case is most closely related to "some" in English.

Ah, yeah.

I have to say that I'm really not that fond of that place =/  I don't think I even understand why, really.

Yeah, I go there every few months out of desperation and I inevitably end up disappointed.

Not really sure why either, it just rubs me the wrong way. Although those "converse in the language you're learning" threads are probably really helpful.

Yeah.  Didn't help that they asked if I was high on my first visit to the Serious Business section.  Apparently they couldn't understand the idea that disorder is defined by the norm, not necessarily by adaptability of behavior  ::)

Wait so if I'm understanding you, you said that disorder is defined by comparison to a baseline and they asked you if you were high?

Were they high?
