I’m currently involved in a legal case in which I produced audio recordings. I was questioned intensely by the other sides lawyer about the modified date on windows.

I kept asking him to clarify what he meant by modified until he said “I don’t know”.

Like. Ffs.

You’re misunderstanding my use of the phrase.

I’m using it in the context or immersing in something you have no understanding of. I just dove right into and skipped most of the intro type stuff.

You’re using the phrase to talk about relative complexity / difficulty not how I’ve usually heard it used but it makes sense.

Like. Most people learning python start with hello world. I spent too many hours learning to own hot encode a 500gb dataset of reddit porn and tweak stylegan 3 a bit to train it on porn. None of which is remarkable objectively but there were a lot of very basic things I needed to learn to finish the task. That’s what I mean by jumping in the deep end - throwing yourself into something you are probably poorly or il equipped for and just figuring it out as you go.

There is a deep end of coding complexity of course, but, different kind of deep end.

I can’t do math for shit and I failed formal logic in uni. I’m not built for math. I just… Don’t care and can’t make myself care. I’ve taught myself python over the past year and amd have become fairly comfortable with bash. Which has weirdly helped me with python?

Anyway I’m not very good at either yet. And there are huge gaps in my knowledge. But I’m learning every day.

I’ve done it on my own, and dove right into the fucking deep end with it which is probably the hardest way. But if I can do it then anyone can. You just need to want it. Why do I want it? I have no idea. If go crazy doing it for a living.

Shouldnt it be sur le 2?

Prescriptive vs. descriptive grammar.

Descriptive grammar describes language, and tries to understand the structure and usage of words and sentences. Prescriptive grammar dictates how it should be used.
