I need to read the paper that resulted from this experiment.

We have a concept of word inflection, which can be used to replace a lot of words that English would use to denote something being a question, ownership markers, causes and effects etc.
Compounds are fun too, since you can do chaining:
Viskibassokitaravahvistinpiiri
Whisky base guitar amplifier circuit
Epäjärjestelmällistyttämättömyydelläänsäkäänköhän.
It’s the longest word you can make in Finnish without using compounds, which can be infinite length.
It means, very loosely translated "I wonder if the outcome was a result of their lack of ability to cause others to be disorganized. "
I know, Finnish is an enviable language.
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What technology will disappear in the next 10 years?13·3 months agoSafer, very high power to weight ratio, better self discharge stability and good temperature range performance are the advantages. The most important one is of course the lack of massive environmental impact of water hungry lithium mining in dry environments and the geopolitical challenges evident in lithium sourcing.
There are a few electric vehicles with this chemistry and I predict it will replace lithium based chemistries in lower cost, smaller vehicles.
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What technology will disappear in the next 10 years?15·3 months agoSodium batteries are already commercially available and although their volumetric energy density and round trip efficiency is lower than lithium I think they are a promising alternative to lead acid and some lithium applications.
Maybe Cambodia and Khmer Rouge? But not many.
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Linux@lemmy.ml•Danish Ministry Replaces Windows and Microsoft Office with Linux and LibreOffice5·4 months agoA little while ago I met someone whose job is to worry about international affairs and they were worried about operating systems.
After that I started worrying about every end user device in Ukraine shutting down until peace was negotiated.
My wife pricked her finger on a sharp growth as we were entering an old warship at a depth of about 35 meters. I remember the dark green strands coming out of her vividly. It looked very alien, accentuated by the fact the bridge of the old ship was overgrown with sea life, yet it was somehow a distinctly human environment.

English is not my first language, but I had heard the expression “search all nooks and crannies”, but thought the last word was grannies - cranny is an unusual word.
Now,my own grandmother was in the habit of hiding candy for us to find. I thought the expression existed because all grannies hid things. Search all nooks and grannies!

I thought you were kidding but no, they do and the reason is otherwise they wouldn’t fit under environmental protection laws.
wizzor@sopuli.xyzto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is there any scientific basis on "taste creep?" Example: you've eaten lots of good food and now average food that you used to enjoy grosses you out.61·11 months agoI have this in a big way. My spouse is a master chef and I refuse to eat at restaurants which serve foods from her home country because they can’t compete.
Her happiness is contagious!

My grandfather’s cat used to play goalie. She would guard some area, like a doorway and expect us to tty to toss a ball or something through. She’d then catch it and return the ball to us for more.
My only question is, why are only amphibians measured this way?
What I meant was (and I was being a little humorous) that your normal type is the one you’d rationally want to like intellectually and emotionally and this dude is the one you.are physically attracted to. I was thinking you were crying over the men you wanted to be similarly physically attracted to and the strong emotional reaction was a result of your surprise at how intense the physical attraction could be.
It’s OK to have more than one type and be attracted to different people for different reasons. I think you have just discovered a new aspect of your own preferences and are trying to reconcile them.
Perhaps you secretly know you’ll end up with a guy much like this one, and are therefore crying for the others…
My imposter syndrome kicked in full swing. I was ready to learn a CSS best practice and feel uncomfortable about it for the rest off the day.
For the life of me I do not understand how this was not all it took.
