    • Common fallacy: things below a certain size/duration aren't useful anyway, so why bother? #
    • The reason you're having trouble doing stuff is because you think small can't be useful. #

    • @Wicketification No. Go for it. The reps on Surusu are just artificially capped to get people to do something instead of nothing. in reply to Wicketification #
    • Deciding what to do next time will help you do better next time. Punishing yourself will just make you not want to do anything. #
    • Perhaps we overrate pain as a teaching tool because it works in situations like touching a hot stove. #NoFunNothingGetsDone #
    • But "no pain no gain" isn't going to work for you. New rule: "No fun, nothing gets done" #
    • It can take some thought to figure out how to make things fun, but…what good is your brain if not for making your life better? #
    • Did your brain have plans tonight? Is it too busy to work for you? If you like pain so much why don't you take it out and beat it too? #

      The application thing is so true, I remember making the change over and it took a while before I get everything but I don’t think there’s any other way I could have learnt the vocab!

      One noteworthy exception though, antivirus software should always be in a language you understand at a very high level!! You rarely use it and if you NEED it and then don’t understand it then it can mess up your immersion enviroment and cost you a computer ^^ Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything ;)
