so this obviously isn't a real worksheet but,

it annoys me how people seem to think that children are stupid, or incapable of picking up or understanding vocabulary that is all around them. simplyfing a concept doesn't always result in a simpler concept, quite often it just becomes incoherent and meaningless. if a child can read (or is learning to read) then they understand the concept of "decoration", hell, throw "baubles" at them, if they ask "what's this?" just explain, it's the perfect exercise for that kind of thing, tell them what it is, and then watch them engage with the idea for the next 10-15min as they doodle

vegetable flavoured water? thinnest of broths? realistically, we call it nothing because what would you even do with something that's 15% vegetable puree and 85% water? my only idea would be to add more vegetables to make it into something, or to use it as i'd use regular water to boil other vegetables or make pasta in it

seems accurate. if i had bucket of water and there was a single pea and a lone noodle floating in it i sure as heck wouldn't call it soup, or even think that its intentional

a cheap phone today is better than a digital camera from 15-20 years ago. but neither can stand up to analogue cameras that use film. we can extract 4k video from footage shot on film in the 80's (any film footage really, but i mention 80's because the music video for Last Christmas available on youtube in 4k is a wonderful example)

how is it physically possible to fit a 120mm lens into a phone?

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

depends on your definition of novice.

a novice that is incredibly passionate and has been absorbing knowledge and experience at a fast pace? sure

a novice that just got a camera who's shooting in .jpeg and has yet to hear of lightroom? (or alternative photo editing software) no

i'm guessing it was a brain shortcut for a "digital zoom lens"

 

this bug is happening again to me. the first ad pretends to be muted, while every other one doesn't even bother and it's a constant jumpscare
