Do you mean the short-term memory needed to apply the commutators or the conjugates? Otherwise you only really need to "memorize" the steps of the method. I learned this method around 10 years ago, and I can still solve the cube w

The Heise method might be a great fit for you. Unlike most methods, it requires no memorization. And, unlike most methods that require no algs, it can be quite fast. AND it forces you to learn about how the cube actually works and to think

I suspect what you're saying could definitely be a phenomenon. However, in this case, I think it's just a matter of domain and context. I speak both English and Spanish natively, however, I'm more comfortable in English when

Hmm, I may be misreading your comments in this thread but it sounds like you're not okay with languages simply... evolving? You are aware that importing words is a thing, right? Even if equivalent words already exist. It's perfe

You just have to love Stephen Merity. His work on QRNN's saved me quite a bit of time and money when I was doing my undergrad dissertation on language models. This SHA-RNN seems to have surfaced from a similar line of thinking that spa

Pretty sure the author is a he. I'm assuming the dating pool is already not huge. Reducing it further by trying to find another foreigner to date would just make it really hard to find a partner.

Aside from V-2 already commented on, I'd like to add that spelling mistakes such as > "it's" as a possessive are mostly native-speaker exclusive. Your/you're, there/their, etc. spelling mistakes you jus

Off the top of my head, most romance languages. You could argue some German dialects as well, Japanese, etc. Maybe even Chinese depending on your definition of 'vowel'. Are you talking phonemes or actual phones? English has ~17 vo

Maybe someone could automate a way to compare tests made on e.g. Netflix' speed test site[0] and speedtest[1]. If there's a huge discrepancy, then it'd be fair to conclude that the ISP is throttling specific connections. [0]
