Mantis42 posted:That makes English suck for the people who have to learn it as a 2nd language but as a native speaker I love having a large vocabulary of weird useless words to use. It makes me sound more better to use better more words. I love that English has a specific word to describe getting thrown out a window

stephenthinkpad posted:My pet peeves with American English in general is that it take a foreign word and foreign concept, and just straight up use the original name. It wastes a lot of bandwidth for raw memorization. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KCEEwx4jZwc

So all the populist candidates seem to melt away one by one with Scomo losing and that Brazilian Trump on the chopping block next. Only one bucking the trend is the new Korean president who leaned on the polarized gender divide to win the election. Also the original and the eternal, Guru Modi.

KomradeX posted:I love that English has a specific word to describe getting thrown out a window I think it's technically Latin? And might originate from Germanic usage? But yeah, English is entirely unashamed about stealing words that are convenient. It's not the only language that does so but definitely benefits from it. I do love the mental image of like, teaching Chinese students about the specific English word for throwing people out of a window. And I'm pretty sure it specifically applies to people! Not objects, not even animals, it's the word for tossing fellow human beings out of a window. There is a comic book character named for and demonstrating the concept.

Their response to covid, how they treated individuals and groups of individuals, makes their response worse no matter what anyone thinks of their reported death count. Also, the idea that the Chinese government is accurately reporting the covid death is loving absurd. quote:An analysis by The Economist estimates nearly 790,000 excess deaths in China since the start of the pandemic. China has also cracked down on independent journalists covering the pandemic and has arrested at least ten people who reported on its handling of the virus.

the error on that number is so large it really needs an asterisk next to the 10,000% thing edit: I guess it's better not to cherrypick data and throw out stuff with big uncertainties? idk how you calculate a 95% confidence interval that's so tight for the other countries

If you believe China is hiding the covid number by 10 to the 5,6,7 degrees, why even believe any economic number coming out of China? Maybe everything you hear from China is fantasy.
