・Anime cards (the guide by someone named QM). It recommends words cards, which are proven to be less effective than targeted sentence cards (TSCs).
・Core 2.3k. It is based on newspapers from early 90s and additionally sorted in a way that makes learning harder. Try Ankidrone Starter Pack instead.

I've started mining words while reading, but I've only been doing Anki for 2 weeks. Is it too early to mine?

>>38735260
>Is it too early to mine?
Did you finished Core2.3k?

>>38735275
not even close, no.

>>38735275
never did core because it's trash. do ankidrone starter pack.

>>38735260
yea, and careful when you start mining you dont mine dumb stuff. stick to words youre going to hear all the time

>>38735295

Disturbing facts about the so-called t*tsumoto and his "guide".

It was MattvJapan's "MPV video" that made him known to the public.
and yet, he's backstabbing Matt in his matrix server.

1) He doesn't know Japanese, nor we have seen videos of him speaking in it.

2) He's Russian.

3) He promotes not using javascript supported websites, and yet he's still posting on 4chan.

4) He's a racist and a white supremacist.

5) Despite promoting free software in his guide, he hosts his blog on Github (owned by Micro$oft).

He isn't an honest person. He is a hypocrite who promotes the exact opposite of what he does.

>>38735295
nah just mine everything, you'll see it again eventually

>>38735335
4chan runs all type of javascript yet you still post here

>>38735343
thats what i did, and it was probably my biggest fumble, like did at least 3k of words i havent seen again, meanwhile my core is flimsy

>>38735289
>Also, despite keeping the same name for historical reasons, the deck is actually only ~1,970 cards in total.
Well, Do at least 1000 words

>50 cards a day

wut
i don't have a matrix server, but i have a matrix space. if people want me to create a matrix server, it's going to depend on a number of conditions which are out of scope of this discussion.
everything i say about matt is honest criticism. i already told him about the flaws in his method.
>He doesn't know Japanese, nor we have seen videos of him speaking in it.
i learned japanese a long time ago, but i don't need to speak it. i can speak but i won't speak japanese to other gaijin.

i'm iraqi, living in dagestan since 2021.
>the photo showing americans

>He promotes not using javascript supported websites, and yet he's still posting on 4chan.
i never said so. my site has JS on it (but it works fine with JS disabled)
>He's a racist and a white supremacist.
i never claimed to be racist and i'm definitely not a white supremacist. i've no idea where you're getting this from.
>Despite promoting free software in his guide, he hosts his blog on Github (owned by Micro$oft).
miscrosoft often promotes free software too.

This is probably some basic grammar shit but what is な doing to the adjective in a line like

Is it just connecting 残酷 with 天使 so that you're modifying the noun with an adjective? Why not just remove the な entirely?

Recently started learning, downloaded a 6k deck.
How do you deal with the retarded cards like "開く" where there is literally no indication of context to indicate which reading you're supposed to recall? The front will have just 開く and the back could be either ひらく or あく, with both cards often appearing a day apart.

>>38737058
I picked up the core 2k-6k one from the OP paste (though it seems to have changed as of recently). I plan to go through 2k cards and then start a mining deck. I suppose I'll try using the hint field, thanks.

linnie audiobook rec of the week, great stuff
feels weird to hear 三木眞一郎 outside of anime

>>38736967
delete the card or pick the definition you feel is the most common and delete the rest, your first anki grind will be always absolute garbage inefficiency no matter what you do but it will lead you to a point you can make use of more effective strategies without fail if you keep at it

>>38736482
pitch

the japanese internet seems garbage and 20 years backwards but in a negative way, many interesting video channels use robo-voice exclusively, a japanese youtube channel will commonly not even reach the quality of a 1k sub english youtube channel. in general just a lot of vloggers and not much else. forums, blogs etc seem to be mostly dead in japan, they mostly use social platforms like twitter.

i'm very disappointed that the japanese side of the internet is mostly garbage, there is no point in looking up content outside of professionally made things and the doujin scene.

A bit of a sidenote but you can actually still post on 4chan in a browser that doesn't support Javascript if you have a pass and have active cookies loaded. The only thing which absolutely requires JS is the captcha.
I tested it with NetSurf a while back.

Bros, what do you think is the best immersion you can do from your phone when you don't have a pc handy for the day?
Light Novels would ofc be the best, but I'm not good enough for those yet, and reading manga on a small screen is annoying af.

That it is 4chan in particular has little bearing on me. I get enough out of it for the price that it isn't a deep consideration for me.
If I disliked 4chan on principle that much I would be a complete fool to not use a better site instead. I actually pay for fastmail with my own domain over gmail, onelook, etc. for similar reasons (and self-hosting is a pain).

Meanwhile I think paying for stuff like Netflix, Youtube Premium, Twitch, etc. is a complete waste for me, but if it factors out for others I don't see much reason to judge.

>>38737573
>Light Novels would ofc be the best, but I'm not good enough for those yet
Doesn't exist. Just push yourself with some easy light novel. You will definitely improve the most from using them or another kind of book.

is posting anki stats the most surefire sign that someone is a beginner? not even hating

>>38737607
yeah but you're an idiot for associating your identity with 4chan by giving them your credit card information

>>38737690
Please tell me where you can purchase a 4chan pass with a credit card that isn't a third-party reseller.
I'll wait.

>>38737483
more than a decade, i think there is a comment made by him in 2009 in some ajatt page, some anon probably has the screenshot

>>38737721
I shouldn't by a 4chan pass because I cannot use the option of payment you just described as being idiotic to use?
I'm not following.

The reason why you can only use crypto is because payment processors don't want to enable the continued existence of a site like 4chan due to it being the (public) source of things considered taboo and unethical, although outright illegal content in US law doesn't stick around.
I understand this and it doesn't really factor much into paying for the pass beyond getting crypto, which was never an issue for me since I've had it since the early days of BTC.

so you're a billionaire now? good for you buddy

>>38737767
>The reason why you can only use crypto is because payment processors don't want to enable the continued existence of a site like 4chan due to it being the (public) source of things considered taboo and unethical

payment processors would take money from isis if law let them, big corps dont have ethics, they got big by only caring about making money

big corps would literally kill you if it was legal and it made them money somehow

>>38737654
is being a beginner bad?

>>38737541
I'm thinking of paying simply because I have a vpn on on my phone, 24/7 so it is a pain not being able to use 4chan while I am not on my pc

anyone who pays for 4chan is an absolute newfag who moot would denounce instantly.

>>38737858
depends on for how long

>>38737879
moot would denounce anyone at all that still uses 4chan in 2022

this isn't even 4chan, it's 4channel

it's bad to use anki as a measure of progression. you can 20.000 words in anki but that doesn't mean you actually know these words

only with reading you can measure how well you can read

it's over

there's no reason to learn japanese anymore

https://mobile.twitter.com/RetroTranslator/status/1489311609075863552

>>38737930
agreed

doing a lot of anki just makes you good at anki, for the most part

>>38737807
nope, only about 7k in crypto right now, mostly BTC, because I never intended on saving it, mainly used it for donations on such when it became viable to do so.
I don't do bad for myself otherwise though, but that's more boring investments and wage-caging.

>>38737817
VISA and MasterCard do have misgivings about potentially enabling something that can be litigated or give them extremely bad press, even if it is legally grey or more of a civil matter. Because that potentially eats into their business and free reign in national markets. This is why they, and dependent processors like Paypal and Stripe who are even more sensitive to it, dropped 4chan and dropped 4channel after the split. They don't go out of their way to uncover potential fraud and potentially criminal/highly unethical services, but 4chan has long had the spotlight on it in this case and didn't need uncovering.
It's like saying the server hosts don't have ethics, and yet 8ch got the axe from their service more for controversial but not directly illegal content (people linking acts of terrorism and such hosted on other sites) more than a failure to clean up illegal content (which was a thing, but got much less public attention).

Anyway, my point really is just that 4chan pass provides a mild benefit on a site I use daily for the price of a decent lunch around these parts, and I don't bat an eye or feel any shame about purchasing it, though I actually did let it lapse a few months ago since the new captcha is much less of a headache and I don't use a VPN.
If you really, really don't like javascript it's just a way to avoid it entirely. I like the built-in extension so it was just a test really.

there is no such thing as not being ready. you can from day one start reading books and you will improve faster than 99% of people. will it be extremely tiresome? yes. but you will get so much quicker out of beginner tier that it might as well be worth it. there is also the testing-forward effect where you start retrieval practice on things you have no idea about and later those hooks will be quickly filled with knowledge.

remember it's never too early to start any kind of immersion, it's just the courage you need to step forward. without doubt learning aggressively with courage is the fasted method to improve, doing the thing you want at the end directly, at the beginning, is the fastest way to reach that end state

dame!
anyone here getting it?

>>38738083
>bitcoin is worse privacy than using a credit card for the most part unless you do a lot of work which is a pain
True, but public traceability via BTC's blockchain is not an issue for me in this use case. If it was and I for some reason didn't want to use more traditional methods (card, wire, just cash), I'd look into Monero outside of simply having some out of curiosity.
I would say that the effort to obfuscate BTC transactions to a similar extent that is baked into Monero is less considerable than the effort required to use crypto in any form over more traditional forms.
Again though, whatever works for you works for you.

to this day i don't get why so many beginners start learning with manga. i looked up a few manga in the beginning, have noticed they all have shit resolution, have concluded the japanese raw scanlation scene is garbage (later realized digital manga from official sites has also garbage resolution) and moved on to better material

>>38738165
be careful though. by "reading" you should actually aim to understand every sentence (doesn't mean you will but you should give it your best effort)

whitenoising will get you nowhere

there is just one aspect of the japanese language i find truly unpleasent and it's the of double negatives. some verbs even have a negative build in and you receive the positive by adding the negative. there are even nouns which have negatives build in and even grammar points which can be made positive with a negative.

to me it feels very uneducated to use double negatives, it's a pointless redundancy that should have been left out in the design of the language.

>>38738531
agreed, just by trying one minute longer i often go from "this is impossible to understand" to "this now totally makes sense". trying hard with difficult problems, that struggle without giving up, is just another aspect of effective learning.

bro first you probably wanna take the name off
second nobody worthwhile will make fun of you, falling is how people figure out how to walk
third, good job bro, keep it up wagmi

>>38739901
that you did less anki than him and so your opinion is worthless? ok noob keep droning maybe you'll pass n5 in a few years

>>38738951

https://youtu.be/dRrDf9rMU-E

like bunko
like gooning
like holos

simple as

>>38739788
eh well, since you said please... wait no

>>38739886
>only 2 months of raw anime
too early to output bro you're still a beginner why do you think you suck at output

くれる is both for giving towards and away from the speaker wtf tae kim lied

ill.never understand why people give up anki every time i hit a hard word i get a little orgasm, it makes me so happy

『くれる』・イコール・『ディーズナッツ』

im a fan of kuryaru

>>38739948
>why do you think you suck at output
words don't flow and i don't know the right collocations. i still have no feel for what sounds natural.

wew just finished a workout and came back to see that russia has officially invaded. praying all my djt bros are safe.

>>38739998
>i don't know the right collocations. i still have no feel for what sounds natural.
so immerse more how do you think you're going to learn those by outputting has your brain completely been rotten by djt retards?

hilarious how this retarded dunning kruger drone crawled back into his hole when asked to get on stream >>38739880, he knows bunko would destroy him in output lmao

>>38740007
have you been working out for a whole day?

>>38740026
learn to read

>>38740040
funny coming from a retarded drone

>>38740026
>dunning kruger drone

calm down with your victory lap its makin you look desperate like this is the first time youve won

>>38740050

>>38740007
im working out as we speak, did they invade for real? dame

>>38737453
me on the right except it's all sex

just wanna remind u i called the crash lol

easiest shit of my literal life

>>38740017
bunko and jamal say one should output

>>38740086
six hours you were saying russia-ukraine is a nothing burger

well apparently its actually happening, best wishes to all my ruskie and adjacent bros

>>38739531
I learned Japanese with the help of DJT's organized resources and encouragement. I then landed a job with said Japanese skills.

>>38740086
what was the easiest shit of your figurative life

>>38740095
as it pertains to the market it is

this was going to happen regardless and u cant draw any correlation between russia doing anything and our financial institutions pulling money out of a fed created asset bubble that the fed already sold the top of months ago

>>38740089
>bunko and jamal
>djt retards
yeah

>>38740089
btw keep in mind neither of them have actually done an output stream

>>38740101
crazy how it's literally happening while the un is literally in the middle of a security council meeting about this exact crisis
>>38740111
what is your job about?

i know japanese is a different beast but i still remember the time when i was still trying to learn english.

i really got better when i started chatting every day with a native speaker. he didn't correct me and everything i said was 100% broken. i remember i had a leap in comprehension just by doing that. i would say something then analyze my sentences after i had said them. i kept doing that until one one day i was like "cool, i understand english!"

https://youtu.be/cu9EYHjohp0
todays kyoku
>>38740111
based grats anon DEKIRU IS POSSIBLE

>>38740145
bunko's stream was in japanese, he was outputting his thoughts in japanese the entire time

>>38740119
>u cant draw any correlation between russia doing anything and our financial institutions
all markets have fallen since the escalation of the russia ukraine crisis

>>38740158
ok dude enjoy crippling yourself

>>38740158
you dont understand english, esl kun

>>38740173
you don't understand bro jamal is a stock trading prodigy that can basically predict every crash possible

>>38740209
you're a newfag retard who doesn't know any japanese and you're asking for links to bunko's stream? lmao

>>38740158
media is better for gaining vocab
youtube is better for understanding fast speech
a native trying to communicate with your jsl ass is better for the fundamentals of conversation
but you should do them in that order

>>38740173
the market has been falling since january 1st after the fake xmas rally

>>38740247
is your market analysis skill learned or genetic

>>38740213
i understand english so well that i don't even need to make an effort to read posts. i absorb them with a mere glance

during class this morning the 6年生 boys were being so silly and inappropriate lol. the teacher said 来週はしゃべりテストだから！ and a glasses boy in front was like 「しゃぶりテスト？！」and then his other glasses friend close behind was like けけけけけ laughing his ass off about it lol. mannn, they are so dam cute (*´▽｀*)

Once again letting everyone know that I am recruiting for my post-apocalyptic empire in the ruins of Kyushu. I'm bringing back legal concubines

>>38739791
dont worry, 99.99% of people don't make it either

>>38740286

penguins are cool but filling concubines to the brim in all holes with 精液 is cooler

>>38740262
if u spend time in the market ull learn to see the signs

>>38740286
so this is the beginning of the end huh
and i never got a jk lay

>>38740341
I only ask that you do your fair share in providing any skills you may have to maintain and strengthen the empire for us and our ハーフ descendants

u can't learn how to output by watching anime
the words used in anime are not the same that are used in real life convos. i know cuz i've been reading them japanese people talking to each other

>>38740422
*matto voice* じつは、できる

>>38740418
im.. really good at making anki cards and gooning i guess...

>>38740422
also in real life there is so much back and forth in conversations so much
はい、はい、なるほど、あなるほどね
and other such mannerisms that can only be learned from emersing in real conversations

>>38740422
slice of life anime proves you wrong
>>38740452
or just from listening to podcasts

>>38740452
aiduti is subservient i aint about that

>>38740438
*できるんだよ

>>38740442
If you manage to survive long enough to make it to Kyushu and join my empire, we will find a place for you. I will not turn any of my bros away
Plus, someone may have need of Anki in post-apocalyptic Japan

>>38740472
b...based...! i always dreamed of helping repopulate the earth...!

when will you ever use these chunks in a real life convo?

>>38740495
id prob use half of those in the bedroom

Here's a cool Confucian quote I thought DJT would like

子曰く、「由、汝に之を知るを教えんか。之を知るを之を知るとなし、知らざるを知らざるとせよ。是れ知るなり。」
"Yu, shall I teach you what knowledge is? When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it;--this is knowledge."

Really opened your mind now didn't I? No need to thank me.

Pretty good so far

This Won't Happen If Trump Was Still President...

if wwwiii ever actually happens i'm volunteering for japanese army
given all the legislation in place they're probably the place least likely to actually participate in any battles
at worst they'll just capitulate to china immediately within the first few months, at best i'll get to witness nanking again (but for real this time)

my first alicesoft game was donadona and i lasted a few hours before uninstalling it

>>38740630
japan doesnt have an actual army, they are essentially a usa army base

ウクライナ軍、ロシア侵攻警戒で予備役を招集

>>38740661
only on paper
in reality america does allow them to have a little militia disguised as a "defense force", it's just very shitty and mostly composed by IJA larpers

>>38740158
it's easier to learn a dialect than a language though.

shame on me for reading a book written by one of the best authors brazil has ever had? wtf

this guy came from germany and learned portuguese just to read the original
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcfpbm7owCo

>Most of the book's spirit is however lost in translation, as the Portuguese original is written in a register that is both archaic and colloquial, as well as full of the author's remarkable neologisms, which makes the aesthetics of the book a challenging task to transpose to other languages. The combination of its size, linguistic oddness and polemic themes caused a shock when it was published, but now it is widely regarded as the greatest work of Brazilian literature and one of the most important novels of Portuguese language literature and South American literature. In a 2002 poll of 100 noted writers conducted by the Bokklubben World Library, the book was named among the top 100 books of all time.[2]

and those are probably the same people who think picasso's (who was an actual rapist) works are masterpieces, a bunch of self-indulgent naked emperors who try too hard to look chic in the eyes of the decadent elite
i could say much more but i'll not since this completely off topic, but brazilian literature has been terrible for a very long time. little to no substance and incessant copying of vulgar european tropes, no wonder our literary tradition is practically unknown to the world despite being one of the most populous countries in the world and being around for longer than the US has

the thing I don't like about bitcoin is that everything you buy is linked together as from you

my plan is to buy some bitcoin and immediately convert it to monero, then if I need to use bitcoin to pay for something that doesn't take monero, I can anonymously buy the bitcoin with my monero, that way total privacy

starting to (rarely) recognize readings of entirely new words, feels really good. maybe i can start reading soon.

on the retirement addon, does the limit you set it to (for example 90 days) mean that the card retires AFTER the 90 day interval card has been repped? or as soon as it gets SCHEDULED for a 90 day interval?
