Two human editors. I'm one of them and I absolutely do not use AI tools when I edit. If you're going off the use of emdashes and endashes, I've been using them for over 25 years.

Pretty high on the RPF, actually! Especially in the early days, a lot of film, prop, and design industry professionals would congregate there and exchange information or big shop folklore. It was a pretty cool place (not saying it hasn&#x27

The evolution of "jerk" makes me also think of "nimrod" and how it referred to the biblical hunter and meant someone with great skills in hunting, until it was used to refer to Elmer Fudd, at which point the meaning chan

I wonder what went right with Yahoo Japan, and how it was so successful here that it's still a mainstay for many to this day Related post I saw an hour after writing this: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/edmund-ho-1

Does Folio actually copy the content (i.e. if the original article is removed, Folio still has it) or does it function as a collection of bookmarks that it changes the presentation of?

Just dropped in my email to try out the Japanese. I'll let you know. I'm not really sure what to do with this -- I thought you wanted someone to take a look at some Japanese content, but I can't find any in the app/tutor

Many businesses and residences typically bag their trash and leave it on the street curb. The main exception is when a building has a managed trash facility, which is a room that people leave their bags in instead of on the curb.

They'll look for external options whether they're paid lessons somewhere, English-related events, or online chances to talk to native speakers. Many will also go on to look for jobs in companies that involve English. It's als

The best part of the museum is the chicken ramen factory, which you need to make a reservation for in advance. It is NOT the cup noodle factory. Cup noodle factory: no reservations, draw on your cup, specify what toppings to put in Chicken

It may be "broken" in the sense that it's not accurate to the original language in orthography or pronunciation, but it's great because it's internally consistent for speakers of Japanese. I can look at any foreign

They're almost always Rinnai, specifically 乾太くん (kanta-kun).

Very well stated! I completely agree with this and this is why I feel like the rebels don't actually have a carrier doctrine as proposed by the article.

I agree with the bases -- we do see that multiple times, but we don't really see as much scrambling from carriers in the same way that we see them scrambling from planetary/lunar bases, which is what makes me hesitate about charac
