Anybody use Duolingo and actually become proficient in another language?
I did.
I took 2 years of Spanish in high school. That had the same almost useless effect that it had on every other high school student, but it did lay some groundwork.
Over 10 years later, I achieved a conversational level of Spanish using maybe 80% Duolingo. It was inefficient, but the gamification kept me going.
I think it is now much less efficient than it was when I used it, maybe half as efficient, because the app is now hammering and testing every detail to an unnecessary degree, and they are also trying to increase usage time.
I am probably not conversational anymore because I haven't kept up with it. If I had to learn again I might try to incorporate only like 25% Duolingo. I'm not sure if that's possible though. I might just not use it at all.

Nah, most large potential buyers are unaware of the Core/Knots saga. And OG levels of selling are consistent with prior bull runs.
From institutional buyers I've spoken to (some of their largest), th...
Thorn did not ask people if they are worried, or if they are trimming their positions. His poll is totally orthogonal to this issue.
With regard to 'where they stand,' 18% are pro core and 36% are ambivalent or do not know where they stand. That's 54% of the group who have some awareness. I have spoken to OGs who trimmed their positions in BTC over concerns that this issue could lead to price volatility.
Sure, it may not be the main driver, but your reasons for discounting it are not compelling.

Right? Outing sockpuppets isn't doxxing.
No one was told a name, address, job, family or anything else tied to a government ID or useful for swatting.
Real first name. It is a 100% dox.

@ODELL Look who was forced onto a more censorship resistant platform. (Many such cases.)

It was never just a Luke project and I was never closed to more involvement. This quote is just FUD, nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kk...
You are the sole maintainer. Now, being maintainer doesn't mean you have full control because the code is open source. All the other knots devs could leave or fork off. Is that why you're saying it was never "just a Luke project?"
