It’s not just them, a lot of people across the world speak a mix of english and their native tongue.

Even seen philipino subs coming to the reddit front page? They usually start with an English phrase and end in tagalog.

My diet aligns mostly with what you have described, but not perfectly.

Takeaway would be to add more proteins and to be more serious about regular hydration. Even though I have a to do daily for drinking water, I miss it.

Thank you for the detailed comment.

Thanks for the confidence booster. I appreciate it.

A doggo for you

i know lots of stuff. i just can’t access it without a trigger.

I have this exact same problem, I suppose a lot of us do. I don’t know how to access a lot of the stuff I have already learnt! Even after making countless notes.

One method that works is making analogies, but how do you do that for new words you learn or even older words! I like to write as well and I hate that my word recall works like a 100 year old librarian.

I do feel a little better knowing this.

How long do you suppose it takes to learn a framework?

I am learning flutter, because I want to make apps for myself, but I find myself quickly turning to the web or AI for help.

How much of a brain break are you giving yourself?

Not much, I am afraid. But it is something much more difficult to tackle.

Since short term memory is largely written to long term memory while you sleep, maybe try working on it an hour or so before you go to sleep.

This is actionable, thanks.

Also, how are you learning? Are you doing exercises as you learn each concept, or are you reading a bunch then trying to throw everything together after?

I have been learning by working on the theory as problem first and then learning theory proper. I also learn better by working on the problem and researching about it when I need to finish it, but I still forget stuff. Hence the frustration.

I don’t know. I have a similar journal, but I find myself dreading entering info in it because there’s too much to do and the ADHD makes it even more difficult to process and commit to.

There’s also just too much to do and too little time. There’s just too many things to cope with.

For language, I was using a textbook but currently I am just doing Duolingo to keep myself acquainted while I pick up my textbook learning habit again. Also subscribing to relevant subs and communities to stay fresh and immersed.

My issue is mostly with coding and retaining concepts I learnt for that.

Thank you.

What do you suggest hand written notes or digital ones?

I have also found myself in this situation and try to keep obsidian notes. But sometimes it feels counterintuitive, because there is so much to write. I fixed a bug, should I write it down? But I also fixed three to two bugs, should I write them all down?

Or everytime a family member does something shitty but the movie hand waves it ok.

If they can actually get there. I will be so happy for them. Maybe it will run on the rest of us.

But dude, they are not going to. They have massive wealth inequality. Those rich people would want to keep it that way.

Fortunately, there are checks and balances as the central party has a lot of sway. But this position is contingent on their leadership. Wrong/incompetent leadership will plunge them into a worse kind of hell hole.

For all our sake, I hope the Chinese do well and become a democratized socialist country. Technically they are , what with all the factions in the CCP but more transparent and accountable.

Dude are you living in 1990s? You’d have to blind to not see how much they’ve built up.

I don’t like their brand of communism, but damn have they done so well for themselves.

Basically they have been very good capitalists.

Got banned for telling some one “fuck you you neonazi apologizer”. Apparently it was permanent banning offense, even after appealing. Lol.

They didn’t ban the other dude. I guess he technically didn’t say anything that was violated the rules of reddit. All he did was justify the actions of white supremacist in the past for all the non-white people colonization, murdering and plundering, describing it as a product of time, but at the same timez he was also not okay with white people colonization.

Funny how things work.

I agree, I use Duolingo because it’s good at making me comeback to learn. But I use it for vocabulary as I feel it is best for that. It was never very good at teaching grammar.

But I don’t know why it is not good at teaching grammar. I don’t think it’s that difficult to replicate textbook exercises in a fun way. All I can think why they don’t have good grammar exercises is that it’s some dark pattern I don’t recognise.

I thought Duolingo was terrible for grammar.

Are there any transoutreach orgs you can contact?

A larger trans community might be able to help you with getting the right resources regarding this.
