The "rules" of a language describe how people use the language, but those conventions are subject to constant change because communication is a collaborative art. Some might say it's better to use a semicolon rather than a comma, for example.

I hate Western-style knives though. Do any of these brands do Asian-style?

I think the idea was that he could be invoked by his name, but they couldn't have people going around saying "Jehova" (or whatever) randomly without any cool powers happening, so they made up the rule to discourage people poking holes in their flimsy story.

I feel like any linguist upset by non-prescriptive language needs to maybe reconsider their life choices. Imagine telling someone they're painting incorrectly or being mad at the discovery of a new species.

You leave the stroller for a moment to grab your take-away order and come back to a crow repeatedly attempting to insert a still-living snail into the baby's face. The snail is confused, but calm. The crow is frustrated. The baby won't stop screaming, further frustrating the crow. Just eat the snail, idiot.

You have to say that on Meta if you want them to read it.

I think the desire for random violence is born out of the inability to be justifiably violent towards authoritarian figures. I think that's why I like video games about shooting cops.

Honestly, I feel like it's worse. I can understand a hateful fuck being gleeful over shit like concentration camps and whatnot, but to see something like that and be indifferent? I can't relate to that in any way. I wouldn't believe anyone like that exists if the evidence of them weren't so prevalent. It feels inhuman. It's the kind of reaction I'd expect from a toad or an inanimate object.

I think what happened is he got conned and went off to cry about it, and now Snorkfröken has come to comfort him and tell him that conning people isn't allowed.

e: I just realized this community has been posting the comic pages in order. I only see them randomly from whatever r/all is called and just kind of assumed everyone was posting and looking at random pages and didn't question it because they're pleasant. Might actually read it properly now, lol.

I feel this would be a blatant lie if it included a bunch of false positives.

While keeping the FPR low, our model keeps the TPR high, showing that it can accurately find real cases while reducing false alarms.

I'm not educated enough to know what recall means in this context, but there's tables with percentages for it in the page. (Would love an explanation; I'm not sure what to search for to get the right definition.)

I think you replied to the wrong post. This is supposed to be under the one about him defending himself, right?

I dunno though. Abuse is obviously easier in a physical sense from the statistically larger sex, but I've seen it go both ways, especially in the sense of both partners being abusive to each other simultaneously. When it comes to celebrities, I will just let the appropriate authorities decide what's what instead of trying to have an opinion on people I've never met. I would feel better knowing that the authorities aren't often biased by things like racism and sexism, but they're still better than any zero evidence speculation on my part.

And also I think she's quite cute, so??
