Toto hlasovanie vstúpi do dejín - celá zelená 😯

“Zjednotenie vojenských doktrín”. Moje nervy, teraz sme to už mohli mať spoločnú európsku armádu s jedným velením. Namiesto toho máme 27 fragmentovaných armádok bez spoločného nákupu, s nízkou interoperabilitou a milplikáciou nákladov 🙄

Inou otázkou však je ako zabezpečiť aby európska armáda stála na pevných základoch morálky, bránila ale neútočila, a nevytvorila vojensko-priemyselný komplex, ktorý by silne ovplyvňoval politiku…

Rýchle konania o zmene verejnoprávnych médií bez dostatočných konzultácii s odborníkmi a verejnosťou. Niečo mi to pripomína 🤔

EU už dávno zaspala na vavrínoch. Nanešťastie dosť neskoro ale predsa sa aspoň teraz zobúdza.

A tlačí na otvorené technológie! Aj vďaka tomu môžme vytvoriť ľudstvo, ktoré na svetovej úrovni spolupracuje namiesto toho aby si navzájom konkurovalo 😍

So, a new Copenhagen interpretation? 🤔

Just today I have again started to listen the book “Ageless” by Andrew Steele, which mentioned this tortoise at the very beginning. BTW, a great book about the real science how we can practically stop aging and dying from it.

Bolo by fajn keby medzi tými inovatívnymi liekmi boli aj veci na zvrátenie starnutia. Vrátane kognitívnych funkcií starých ľudí.

Tie hlasy sa otočili oproti bežnému stavu 🤔

EU invites you to provide evidence about role of open source software as a strategic asset. So we will be able to break free from even more things that fund this clown.

I had big problems with languages all the way up to university, but get Esperanto pretty quickly. Good luck 🤞

Ah, OK. Because someone was posting about Esperanto in a different writing system.

By chance, is it you who is posting this on Mastodon?

If you are website enjoyer, https://lernu.net/ is a solid, free of charge web course in many languages, with big community.

I have also heard good reviews on the Zagreb Method - https://esperanto12.net/

If you prefer apps, https://www.duolingo.com/ works great in English, if a lot of examples is your way to go.

Of you are a book person, I have read that “Complete Esperanto” by Tim Owen is highly acclaimed. Also “Esperanto per rekta metodo” (“Esperanto by direct method”, so directly on Esperanto with elimination of translations) works great for many people.

Some very basic stuff, mostly list of common phases for traveling, it’s available at Wikivoyage, in several languages 👇 https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q143#sitelinks-wikivoyage

Using Anki flashcards helps to memorize words, but I am not using it so I am not sure where to find the data to use…

If you prefer in-person course, you may ask people from the Esperanto organization in your country (see https://uea.org/landoj), or visit some meeting to get in-depth answers and make new friends (see https://eventaservo.org/).

Ultimately, it depends on your learning style to select (or create) a learning process, but these are solid. Enjoy, and please comment here after some time about your progress. I would love to know!

English, as an national language, is great for national communication.

But using national language for international communication is like using black-white television to watch a color movie - it kind of works, but it definitely loses a lot.

There are at least 2 important factors:

1. neutrality: English used for international communication favors people from English speaking countries. Inside of Europe that is not to big problem, because Ireland and Malta, while being great counties, have relatively small population - so English can work as a reasonably neutral language for European communication. But when it comes to Europe in world - English is used but a country that left us and by country that wages trade war against us. That highlights that English definitely is not a worldwide neutral language.

2. ease of use: Esperanto was designed to be easy to learn and use, while functioning very well as a mean of communication. It does not carry a burden of centuries of non-systemic evolution, so it does not have things like irregular verbs. It’s grammar is very regular with simple rules. It enables creating words with a set of prefixes and sufixes so one does not need to learn a bunch of new (different) words about related things (like: to eat, to snack, to feast, food, meal, cantina, utensils, etc. - they are manĝi, manĝeti, manĝegi, manĝo, manĝaĵo, manĝejo, manĝiloj etc). Experience shows that learning Esperanto is 5-10x faster that learning national languages. It’s just much not efficient.

Than comes other factors, like pushing some way of thinking, usual for one specific nation, to all humankind, atc, but those 2 are the basic ones.

Anti-vaxxers when they get know that significant majority of new confirmed polio cases are caused by vaccines: 😎

I even work on spreading Esperanto, as a neutral language for Europe and humankind 🫡
