once you learn japanese youll never stop noticing just how many people online lie about being japanese for some reason





All I did was post about how I don’t see certain N1 grammar points often. I’ve worked in Japanese companies, I’m married to a Japanese person who doesn’t speak English, and I’ve played games like MGS1 in Japanese. I’m studying N1 to build on what I know. What’s the problem?


Agree w Terence Tao - LLMs limitations are structural. I’ve always said the usefulness of current AI correlates w the users expertise. So the illusion of creativity can impress/fool non experts. The current LLMs excel at Keplerian work (empirically testing many combinations via brute/compute scaling) but not Newtonian unification or genuine leaps. They act as a “super-assistant” for literature search, candidate generation, formalization, and exposition - freeing us for the creative core - but there is no evidence yet of autonomous originality at the frontier. Solving a Millennium Prize problem de novo w a genuinely novel technique (not latent in the corpus) would constitute such evidence; it has not occurred.



The supermarkets near BTS concert expected around 300,000 people, so they increased their stock x10 but the actual crowd was much lower which caused them significant losses








can fic writers brag about their personal favorite “damn I’m cool as hell, AI could never” sentences they’ve written? Like sentences that are uniquely weird/silly but also just WORK because the human brain is a magical place and words are a playground?

People who’ve studied languages like Russian, Italian, French, etc. Are those learning communities as abrasive and needlessly hostile as the people studying Japanese? I suspect soft power/weeb media is a big reason for why Japanese attracts a certain kind of person sometimes.
