Did Claude distill Abba's Dancing Queen? Here's what the evidence suggests

Some days I genuinely prefer my #dyslexic version of what I read 😸

As a #dyslexic I can't study to learn the rules of a language. Yet I never had an issue with Japanese which is often considered difficult?

これは本当に何ですか

Reading just the syllables in the sentence above in my head it becomes:

kore wa ?? ni ? des ka?

Punctuation is implied. I know the sound patterns. Now the ? are kanji which can be read multiple ways. 日本 means Japanese which contains "book". 当然 means obvious, and it contains the "correct" kanji pronounced the same. Together they become "honestly".
何処 wouldn't work for the last one cause it's pronounced do and it feels off. But 何人 works and the whole sentence is "sound"✌️

The fuck is this?

So that's what I make of it 😸

I've always had that #neurodivergent curiosity and soaked up the knowledge of topics that vaguely interested me. As a #dyslexic I couldn't however learn from rules like most people. Going through school studying was pointless for me. I didn't know why but I knew tests would come out the same wether I study or not. There was nothing I could do to affect my grades.

I also love sharing my knowledge with people around me. Only explaining something based on my intuitive understanding doesn't work well. So I did what I always do when I want to learn something. I put myself in more situations where I explain things to people and make mental notes of what's confusing me. Until I picked up the patterns of how other people respond to my words.

This is what it means when someone has Big Picture Thinking.

Once I get my finances back in check (pay off debt) the dyslexic ASUS ROG STRIX x670e-f motherboard (when I say this, the problems* are well documented) will be replaced with one that supercedes it, ASUS ROG STRIX X870E-E.

*Sound, PCI-E and NIC are all routed via USB and suffer random frequent "disconnections". USB ports "disconnect" when anything is plugged into them at random. Graphics shuts off. System reboots during standby.

#ScribesAndMakers 5/4. How many songs are there where you know all the lyrics by heart?

#Dyslexic brain here. So none most of the time. Or all, because dyslexia affects recall so the lyrics are in there somewhere.
I can usually remember the first verses ok. Or the first line. If I hear the opening bars. Or if I'm being earwormed.

Going off book for performances is a huge struggle.

I am #dyslexic, too. 💃

"… Children do not just hear the diagnosis; they hear what the world thinks it means. … They sense when adults … have quietly made up their minds. It is a terrible thing to do to a child – to make them feel written off before they have had the chance to discover their own brilliance.

Now, as a space scientist and engineer, I meet many children in my science communication work $ I try to instil what I call the 'desire to aspire' in every one."

Targeting people who read left->right (ie EN) and are #dyslexic is it better to have a form or row label
* left aligned (for the average person)
* right aligned (so its harder to read the wrong label to the row)
* it depends on screen size
* tunable maybe?

Cisco website was really bad for this in 2010 era, no idea if they fixed it yet.

One of my colleagues mentioned today that her #dyslexic girlfriend uses #ChatGPT to rewrite her emails, as she struggles with both letters and numbers. Before, she was dependent on her parents and friends to proofread any important communication.

Isn't that empowering and a great use of #LLMs?
