• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Duolingo Fires Translators in Favor of AI⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m studying a couple of languages that don’t have English as the native tongue. They provide no grammar notes.

  The ones with native English do, but accessing it is not intuitive since you have to go to the Units view.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How hard can you concentrate?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  When I’m in the zone, my heart rate slows, as do my breathing rate and rate of blinking. I forget about hunger, thirst, sleep, toilet, and all other problems. The only thing in the world is the thing I’m working on. Time passes unnoticed. Afterwards it all comes crashing back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For those with larger phones, how do you handle them without grip accessories?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I get that when I swipe up, but not down. Maybe it’s a different launcher thing. I’m using Lawnchair.

  On an A32 4G if I’m on homescreen I can swipe down anywhere to open notifications drawer.

  If I’m in an app though yeah, it’s top or nothing
