Chez @cooptilleuls, on a le goût du rythme, et c'est donc tout naturellement qu'on vous a conçu des playlists thématiques pour bien démarrer 2024 ! 🕺
Oserez-vous écouter ma playlist du "neues Jahr" ?
I ended my time on Duolingo in the #NewYear, after finding out they sacked a bunch of translators and are now relying on AI to generate sentences for learning. Essentially, they are just generating the content via AI and having a limited number of translators "check the work" before putting it up into their programs.
I also noticed that, the longer I went on in my Duolingo program, the quality of the learning seemed to decrease dramatically, and after learning about the AI thing, it started to dawn on me that this could be part of the reason for that. But even if it isn't related, the fact that they are making this move toward AI only means in the future, the learning WILL decrease in quality whether we like it or not, and that's no fun at all.
So No Thanks, #Duolingo. So long, and thanks for all the fish.
Something I used to do on my socials in the past was post a little morning post about how thankful I am for anything I thought of that morning. I am going to start doing that again using the hashtag #ImThankful in case you want to mute / it's not your thing.
Today, let's start out by saying I am thankful that the Lord has entrusted me with my four wonderful children and my wife. I am lucky to have all of them in my life and love them all so much.
This is the face of a pup who’s not going to let some arbitrary calendar date change the way she lives her best pup life. (But she has suggested that I make a #NewYearsResolution for more scritches and more walks)
I want to take a moment to thank everyone for the boosts, favourites but especially the replies over the last year! I've been on Mastodon for a little over a year and made a lot of GREAT friends, learned new things and seen many awesome animal pictures and beautiful landscapes with the sun rising or setting.
Thanks again and let's keep social media social in 2024!🙂
We made it to the East Coast ball drop! Happy New Year!
Lex was tricky this year. It's bad luck to toast with water, and she doesn't like any beverages with bubbles. We inadvertently landed on mimosa ingredients, which is a trend I can wholeheartedly support. I really should drink more mimosas in 2024.
Hope you and yours are celebrating the New Year, are safe and warm, and eating some great food!
