Like, duo is fine for vocab, but honestly it doesn’t teach some things that are very necessary, and there are no ways to actually learn those things in the app. Both busuu and pimsleur have extra training and explanations of stuff.
This was a very well written response, good on you. Just one final piece of advice. A therapist will sit with you and wait for you to reveal something over the course of years. You can take your time telling them. Likewise, you shouldn’t tell them certain things until you trust them. Because their decisions will reflect in your mind differently based on your relationship with them.
In this case you can simultaneously do things from the last post and this post, they aren’t mutually exclusive. But you should do something to get out of the situation, before it’s too late.
Yeah seems like maybe they should have followed at least one of those things in that post. I had commented there too, but OP only responded to the people telling them to do something obviously stupid. Any helpful response got no response in turn.
Busuu is much better than duo from my experience lately. And pimsleur is better than both. Busuu actually teaches you what’s going on, where duo just gives you words over and over again and hopes you figure out the difference. It’s been really frustrating cause duo seemed good up until like day 60 for me.
Yeah sure and TC isn’t right about everything. NACS currently doesn’t support (and hasn’t for years) 800v charging. CCS does. I can charge my ioniq 5 in 15 minutes up to 80%. This is like saying Tesla did self driving cars first, except they still don’t have it working properly, they’ve just been claiming so for a decade.
If your product is only good as a future, not yet implemented, version of itself, then it’s not a product and shouldn’t be bought. You’re selling future promises, rather than current status.
Yeah it’s pretty crazy, like Ruby was extremely well known for how good its tooling is, so much so that it inspired numerous other language package managers and build tools like elixir’s mix, rust’s cargo, and the lock files in npm and composer.
The testing frameworks everyone uses today are directly descended from Ruby’s RSpec, almost to the letter. BDD and TDD were pioneered by Ruby devs.
Extension functions in Kotlin are a direct result of lessons learned from Ruby metaprogramming while Rust and Elixir’s syntax are both directly inspired by Ruby.
The beauty of Ruby’s DSLs also spread to almost every new language. Kotlin and Gradle DSL scripts are possible because of Ruby.
Rails inspired an entirely new paradigm of web frameworks, where things were supposed to be easy by default. Laravel, Spring Boot, Phoenix, Django all are directly inspired by this, even though Django came out first it wasn’t easy to use.

Python gave us… Jupyter notebooks, whitespace which no one uses, and not much else.
Have you ever actually read the manual? I have. It’s thousands of words for how to build a single python library. If you look at almost any other language it will be a tenth of that. Ruby’s is literally like 4 commands total. The only people that think Python tooling is even halfway good are people that have never used a language with proper tooling.
Henry Segerman is awesome. Love his videos.
