“It’s key to understand they work in probabilities, not absolute truths”
Sure, but the probabilities are of certain words being found near other words.
Don’t confuse that with the probability of a certain set of symptoms/data being a given disease.
Those are completely different things.

Feel like spending lunchtime at the seaside? I just fixed a couple of local stations in this, so pick your destination, click the radio, and enjoy the sandwich & flask of tea vole.wtf/british-seas...

What did the advice columnist say to the stranger who asked for $50k?
“That’s a latte”

People doing that will often quietly unfollow you again a week or so later so their ratio makes them look “important”. It’s all a bit sad.

That’s a good tip for UK English (thanks!) but the problem is US English doesn’t do the verb/noun differentiation, and chooses the s or c variant for both seemingly at random eg in US it’s always license .. practice .. (never licence or practise).

Not in US English: practise doesn’t exist. That’s the thing I forgot because it’s inconsistent: Defense is with an s (always c in UK) practise/ce (UK) always with a c in US. License/ce (UK) always with an s in US.

The practise / practice pairs get me. I know American English doesn’t have one of them but I can never remember which without looking it up.

If you close your eyes and imagine it, it looks just like the real thing.

There’s a small bush somewhere you can stand behind and put it automatic grenade fire & it’ll kill anyone who comes near you. We left it running for hours like that.
Can’t find any mention of this online weirdly.

Bring back quarantine. If they want to cosplay the 1800s we can give the full experience.

I wonder if they do this when people tell them where they’re going on holiday.
“Spain? Oh I’m not going there.”
