はてなキーワード:Let’sとは
「おうち英語」という言葉は五年前よりも有名になっていると思う今、ネット上では娘より喋れる子しかいない気がするけど、おうち英語やっている友人含めて、リアルでは娘みたいに喋れる子は見たことない。
自分では「ゆるおうち英語」と呼んでいる私と娘のおうち英語をメモ代わりに増田に放流してみる。(教材名の大文字小文字など間違いあるかも)
この約五年間基本的に
・私にできる限りの語りかけ
で過ごしてきた。
私：アラフォーワーママ、英語喋れると思われる大学卒の英語喋れない純ジャパ、オタク
0歳9ヶ月〜現在(5歳5ヶ月)
ゆるおうち英語レポ
⸻
妊娠中、ディズニー英語システム（以降DWE）に憧れを持ち、購入を検討。
価格を調べると約100万円で、これで英語が話せるようになるなら安いとも思った。
しかし、調べるうちに、
• DWE単体では完結しない
と知り、「これさえ買えばOK」という教材ではないと理解した。
その中で
『世界で活躍する子の〈英語力〉の育て方』を読み、(※おうち英語をする人ならみんな読んでいる著書と思われる)
という考えに共鳴し、それは今もなお私のおうち英語ポリシーになっている。
市販教材を使わない導き方もあるが、ワーママでありかつ教育業界に勤める私にとって、プロが時間をかけて作成した教材の価値は考えるまでもないと判断。
DWEの他に検討していたのが、2026年の今はサ終したBenesseのワールドワイドキッズ（WorldwideKids, 以降WK）。
フルセット約25万円で、こちらを軸に多読を進める想定をしていた。
⸻
WKのStage0をやるかどうか迷っていた時期に、
「それならDWEのPlay Along!(DWEの前哨戦教材。以下PA)を中古で使う方が良い」という意見をネット見て、DWEのPAを中古購入。
ここでDWE教材の完成度の高さを実感することになる。
⸻
1歳3か月〜2歳：WK導入、英語発話が始まる
1歳3か月ごろ、WKフルセット(DVD30本とおもちゃのセット)、結局中古で導入。
結果的に、英語力の土台として最も影響が大きかったのはWKだと感じている。
WKはさすが天下のBenesse、低年齢に安心して見せられることを大前提とした「すべて英語の」コンテンツがいろいろ30分詰まっているDVD という点が素晴らしい。1歳3ヶ月〜3歳半まで毎日見ても飽きることがなかった。
一週間でDVD一本、一日一回見るような形で少しずつ見進めて行った。
この五年間を通じて、私が何か一点だけ人に勧めるとしたらWK。
DWEは、大きく4ステージに分かれていてそのステージの中に小さなステップが散りばめられているイメージ。
のような感じ。
WKは6ステージと銘打っているものの、30本のDVDを楽しみながら順番にただ見るだけと言ってよい。それでほんとに喋ってる。
1歳7か月
初めての発話が英語だった（「UP!」）。
⸻
2歳〜3歳：DWE教材追加・Numberblocks・多読導入
中古の良いところは、買いたくなったタイミングで買えるところ。結局最終的にはほぼフルセット購入したのだけど、必要になった時期に必要と思えるものを基本的には買い足せている。やっぱ要らんかったもの達のまとめと費用も記事の最後に。
DWEのSing Along! (歌のDVD、以下SA)を購入するも、DWEのDVDは実質紙芝居であるため食いつきは微妙。歌のみ収録のCDは基本的に今も毎日リビングで極小音で流れている。5歳になり、DWEのお話までなんとなく行っているから歌の理解もある程度あるが、意味なくBGMとして流してもあまり意味がない気がする。最近になって聴き取りもわりとできていることがわかったくらい。
でいうところのお話Straight Play（以下SP）も購入。SAよりは興味を持ったがそこまでではない。正規会員であればイベントが多くあるのでモチベーションや楽しみもアップすると思うけど中古にはそれがないのが孤独なところ。
基本毎日WKは観ながら日々が過ぎていく。
素で英語を喋るときもあった1-2歳とくらべ、日本語ががぜん優位になってくる。ただ、「そんな表現も言えるのか」と驚く英語発話も続いた。
⸻
2歳：Numberblocks視聴開始
WKのステージ5.6辺りから、「すべて日本語だとしても難易度が本人にとって高いだろう」と本人の反応の鈍さを見て思ったことから、
YouTubeで Numberblocks（イギリスの算数アニメ）を視聴開始。BBC作成なので質が担保されていて安心。
個人的にはYouTubeはおうち英語に欠かせないけれど、選び方で全てが決まると言ってもよいと思う。自分で見極めるのは難しいので本人が興味持ったらすぐに調べる。
ただし、YouTubeは諸刃の剣でもあると思う。娘はこだわりなく、聞き分けの良い性格であるために、許可したチャンネルしか見ない。また。YouTubeの動画は英語の好きなものを見るというのが通常であるから「何を見ても安心であり英語である」状態を作れているが、親の選んだDVDを見せるような形が一番理想ではある。この頃から本人の見ているコンテンツの内容を完全に把握することが難しくなった。
⸻
•Oxford Reading Tree（ORT）約300冊
• Liao130 130冊
両方導入。すべて音声ペン対応。これは価格的にも重かった。が、「家の中に読みきれないほどたくさんの絵本がある」という環境をプレゼントできただけでも自分が嬉しかった。
ORTはイギリスの国語の教科書としても採用されている数ページの薄い絵本。自力読みを目指すための本…とおもっている(でもお話ふつうに面白い)
リャオは、台湾の英語教育ママが選んだ英語絵本130選。まず人が選んでくれた絵本というコンセプトが良い、たくさんの絵本に出逢えてありがたい。はらぺこあおむしみたいな誰でも知ってるお話もあるし、日本では訳されていない絵本もいくつもある。
5歳5ヶ月になってもまったく読み終わらないが、それでも良いと思っている。
字を読むことに関してはまったくノータッチだったのに、5歳前くらいから、頭文字から単語を推測するような様子がある。
⸻
3歳半：伸び止まり感
本人そのものの成長、日本語の伸びに英語がついてきていない感じがしていた。
オンライン英会話(ワールドアイキッズ)、トド英語もやってみたが、悪くもないが良くもない。
このことを当時「親が英語を話せないせいだ」と思っていたが別にそんなことはなかった。実際は本人自身の成長スピード、日本語の言語力が加速し、母語である日本語と第二言語の英語がくっきり区別されていっていた期間だったと思う。
今後どうなるか不安も抱えながらも、言語習得に必要と言われる2000時間のインプットを目指し、毎日淡々と英語に触れ続けた。
この間も本人まったくこだわり無く、自我がしっかりしてきてもプリンセスやプリキュア、可愛いもの💞などにハマることも一切なく、楽しく英語動画を視聴し続ける。
⸻
この辺りから今までの主なインプットコンテンツはYouTube。
主に観ていたチャンネル
※numberblocksはblippiしか観なかった半年くらいを除いて常に観ている
3歳 / Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
3歳 / Minnie’s Bow-Toons
4歳 / Blippi
5歳 / Pinkfong
5歳 / JunyTony
5歳 / Bebefinn
5歳 / Peppa Pig
やはりWK、DWEのような「完全ないい子、教材めいたゆっくりの会話」とは異なり、早くて理解が追いつくか？とも思っていたが、
実際に使われる口語も多いようで、私の知らない表現を多く使うようになってきた。
なかでもblippiの存在が大きすぎる。(アメリカの教育系YouTuber)
現在5歳、保育園の間はずっとインプット期間だと思っているけれど、それでもブリッピーがアウトプットを大きく前進させた気がする。親としては一生ブリッピー観ていて欲しかった笑
ナンバーブロックスがイギリスなのでアメリカってのも良いなと、、
JunyTonyは韓国のコンテンツでめちゃくちゃ画面切り替えも早くてココメロン状態ではと思ってあまり見せたいチャンネルではないのだけど、もう分別のつく5歳だし、アジア系だからか、「おなら、うんち、おしっこ」系の楽しい動画多くて、娘そういうのが大好きなのでまあ許容かと…
Peppa Pigは2-3歳では通らず5歳のいま観ているけど、ちょうど完全に理解できるレベルなんじゃないかなーと観ていて思う。
黙って視聴していた後に、日本語で
「パパピッグがケチャップないってエマージェンシーって電話しちゃったんだよ。全然エマージェンシーじゃないよねえ笑」
と話してくれたりする。
動画以外のインプットだと、DWE内職をメルカリで外注したのがものすごく良かった。
DWEを本気でやる際には親の「内職」(カテゴリ分けやラミネート、ファイル作りなど)は必須と言っても過言ではないが、その内職をネットで外注してDWE絵本を音声化した。(内職代行は賛否ある)
DWE絵本とは
の「お話」の部分であり、straight playのDVDと同内容である。
絵本が音声で読めるようになったことで、今までBGMだった 家に流れ続けているSAの意味もわかるようになってきた。絵本が音声で読めるようになったことで、straight playのDVDは無くても良かった、ということに結果的にはなった。
主なインプットはYouTubeだが、アウトプットは外注系はなにもしていない。
(AEONのサマースクール(通常授業に夏の3回だけ混ぜてもらえる)に3歳で行ったときとても良かったのに無くなった。
ECCのサマースクールは4歳に行ったが名前間違い、メール連絡希望なのに電話してくる、子どものポシェットに男性職員がかわいいねと勝手に触れる、外国人講師がピザのぬりえでピーマンをピンク色に塗ろうとしたら「えっ笑」みたいに言ってきたという役満でもう行くことはない)
オンライン英会話もやったことはあるが、まだあまりしっくり来ない。
ただ4歳の途中くらいからか、私とのおままごとやお風呂遊びは全て英語になった。本人の英語力を私が測れないので難しいが、おそらく私の理想としている母語者の2-3歳レベルではないのかと思う。そう考えると、おままごとは完全に英語なのはそんなもんかなと。
あと4歳でDWEのLET'S PLAY(4つのステージクリアには不要だが補完的役割のセット)を買ったのがものすごく良かった。インプット期間を経た後で何か一つDWE買うならレッツプレイが良いと思う。工作、遊び、料理など。楽しくて自然に発話が英語になる。
⸻
まとめ
毎日1-2時間程度インプットがあり、アウトプットが合計10分くらいはある現在、インプット時間は2000時間を超えられたと思っている。
確かなインプットを積み上げたころから、ぽろぽろ英語の発話が出てきたと思う。
ネットで見かけるおうち英語キッズ達はもっと喋れるから(スーパーキッズじゃなくても)周りにはこれだけ喋れる娘ちゃんはすごい、耳がいいんだね、才能があるんだねと言われることがよくあるけど、私はそうではないと思っている。
しかし本人がまったくこだわり無い性格であるということは、ここまできたことに大きく起因しているとは思う。
先月生まれた二人目が、娘と同じように喋れるようになったら、再現性があると言えると思っている。
そもそも私がなぜおうち英語をやっているかというと、最も大きな理由は
かっこいいから
であり、いつまでにどのくらいのレベル、というのはあれど、英語ペラペラネイティブを目指しているわけではない。
あとは中1から自走で机の上系のことは補完してもらうとしても、英語の勉強に時間を割かなくても済むようになれば受験でかなりラクできるだろうなあということ。
あとは教育を生業とする自分として、おうち英語はこの私が導き育てた子どもが英語を喋れるようになるのかというドデカ興奮プロジェクトであるということもかなり大きい。(これも子が育てやす過ぎて悩みがひとつもないからこんなこと考える時間があるからできるとは言える)
おうち英語の鉄則は、
・指針を決めること
・心の師匠を決めること(→だと思っていたが、いまはチャットgptでも良い可能性もある)
・毎日やること
だと思う。年齢に応じて日本語が喋れるように成長している子どもなら、毎日やれば英語が喋れるようになると私は子をみて思っている。

The Power of Small Steps: How TinyChanges CanLead to MassiveGrowth
In a world that glorifiesovernight success and dramatic transformations,it's easy tofeellikeyou’refalling behind ifyou’re not makingbig leaps. But what if thesecret to real, lasting personalgrowth wasn’t in doingmore, faster—but in doing less, consistently?
Welcome tothe power of small steps.
Big goals oftenfeeloverwhelming.You want togetfit,write abook, start a business, or learn a new skill—butyoudon’t know where to start. Soyou procrastinate. Or worse,youdive in too fast, burnout, and give up.
Small steps bypassall of that.
Whenyou break down ahuge goal into manageableactions,everythingchanges. Writing 500 words a dayis less intimidating than finishing a whole novel. Ten minutes of walkingismore doable than committing to a 5K. And spending 15 minutes a day learning a language adds up toover 90 hours a year.
Consistencybeatsintensity everytime.
The Compound Effect
Imagine improving just1% every day. That might sound insignificant—butover a year,it compounds intosomething extraordinary. Thisideais the foundation of DarrenHardy’s The Compound Effect andJamesClear’sAtomic Habits. Bothbooks emphasize that small,smart choices, repeatedovertime,lead to radical results.
Think ofyour habitslike plantingseeds.At first,nothing seems to happen. But giveittime, andyou’ll seegrowthyou never thought possible.
Real-Life Example: The10-Minute Rule
Let’s sayyou want to start meditating but can’tsitstill for 30 minutes. Instead of forcingit,try meditating for just10 minutes a day. Or even 5. Build the habit before scaling the effort.Onceit becomes part ofyour routine, extendingthe timefeelsnatural.
This applies to nearlyeverything:
Want to readmore? Readone page a day.
Want to save money? Start with $1 a day.
Want toeat healthier?Swapone snack a day for a better option.
How to Start Taking Small Steps
Pickone goal
Don’ttry tooverhaulyour entirelifeatonce. Chooseonearea tofocuson—health, creativity, relationships, mindset,etc.
Breakit down
What’s the smallest possibleactionyou couldtake toward that goal?Makeit so easyyou can’tsay no.
Linkyour new habit to an existingone. For example: “After I brush my teeth,I’ll journal for 5 minutes.”
Trackit
Use a habit tracker, app, or notebook to keepyourself accountable. Seeingyourstreak growis highly motivating.
Everytimeyou follow through, giveyourself credit. Progressis progress, no matter how small.
Final Thoughts
Don’t wait formotivation.Don’t wait for the perfecttime. Just start—with whateveryou have, whereveryou are, and however small.
Because small steps,taken consistently, turn intobigchange.
Let’sgetone fucking thing straight:WWDCis supposed to be *for developers*。
You know, the peoplewho actually build shit。Who dig into SDKs, APIs,system frameworks。
Who care about real updateslike “What thehellis the newSwiftUI lifecycle doing?”
or “Can Ifinally use fuckingprivate entitlements without jumping through flaming hoops?”
Sowhy thehelldoesApple keep openingitsmost important developer event of the year
withCraig Federighi doing goddamn *skydiving*? Or *parkour*? Or some *Fast & Furious parody*
with anF1 helmet and sunglasses? What the actual fuckis goingon?
Thisisn’t Saturday NightLive。Thisis supposed to be a showcase of what we’reall supposed
to buildour futureon。Vision。Platform direction。Architecture。
Instead, weget Craig zooming through corridors in slow-molike he’s auditioning for
Mission Impossible 9:MacBook Drift。
Andit’s not even funny anymore。Maybe the firsttimeitwas *kind of* charming。
Alittlewinkat the audience。でもnow?It’s just fucking cringe。
Wastedtime。Wasted bandwidth。A glossy,over-produced middle finger to every developer
watching, notebook in hand, waiting for the actual meat。
Doyousit there thinking, *“Wow, thisis such a great use of mytime!”*
“CUT THE SHIT, CRAIG. SHOW ME THE FUCKING TOOLS.”
We’rebeing sold afantasy — not a platformvision。
What should be an opportunity to say,
“Here’s howApplewants developers to think in thenext 5 years,”
becomes a shallowPR reel of stunts, shots, and skits。
Developers want **guidance**, not gimmicks。**Vision**, not vanity。
Instead of 3 minutes of Craigpretending he’sNeo in a hallway full ofMac Studios,
how about showing us the **real** architectural shifts inSwift,
or a **deepdive** intolow-level memory optimizations inmacOS?
How aboutfinally explainingwtfis happening with `SwiftData`?
Or *anything* that makes us better builders?
We could have had20more seconds of **clarity**, not costume。
WWDCisApple’stime toinspire, tolead, to fucking **guide** theecosystem。
But lately?
It feelsmorelike we’re watching theCraig Federighi Variety Hour。
And I didn’t fucking subscribe to that。

hi, what's up, nice to meetyou, how doyou do,pleasure to meetyou,it's my honor to speakwith youとかめちゃめちゃ使い分けてます
そういうのがわかるためにやった方がいいというのはその通りだと思うけど
Hey. Listen.
Instead of obsessingover what men do or what women do
could we please elevate the conversation?
There are,you know, real things to discuss.
Likeabstract mathematics. Or, say, superstringtheory.
Honestly,you'realwaystalking about such trivial nonsense.
What I crave, no, what Irequire,is higher-order knowledge.
Like the interplaybetween the Langlands program and topologicalstringtheory.
Andyou?You'retalking aboutgender?
Utterly beneath the threshold of intellectual viability.
don’tyou find the mere existence of theuniverse utterly baffling?
You hear “Theuniverse beganwith theBig Bang,” andyou just...accept that?
What if we’re mathematical constructs?
Or the product of some divine artisan?
Ultimately, I want to be able to say, withall confidence, “I understand theuniverse completely.”
And to do that, webegin withabstract mathematics, we proceed to superstringtheory,
and,let’s faceit, there’s far too much to do.
Whichis exactlywhy Ineedyour cooperation.
Soagain,why areyouallstill stuckon this wholegender thing?
Or, gentlemen, areyou seriouslystill thinking about butts and boobs? Areyou brain-damaged?
Humanity should be focusedon solving the puzzle of existence.
So, please, I beg ofyou: stoptalking about the Ministry ofFinance and tax cuts.
Let’stalkabstract math.Let’stalk superstringtheory.
Your economic opinions are irrelevant
and frankly, ifyoudon’t stop meddling,
we’reon track for hyperinflation.
Oh!Onemore thing. I nearly forgotthe most important thing inlife.
Imagination.
With imagination,you become absorbed.
And with obsession comesfreedom from suffering.
That’s whathappinessis, people.
Muah.
Speed,SEO, scalability, and developer productivity aremore critical than ever. While React.js remains a powerhouse forbuilding interactiveuser interfaces, many businesses and developers arenow leaning towardNext.js for complete, production-ready solutions.So what exactly makesNext.js amore favorable choiceover React.js in 2025?Let’s explorethe reasons in detail.
🧱 React.js vsNext.js:Core Distinction
React.jsis aJavaScript library focused solelyonbuildingUI components.
Next.jsis a full-fledgedframework builtontop of React that includeseverythingyouneed for production — routing,SSR,SEO optimization, static site generation, andmore.
In essence, React givesyou the tools to build aninterface, whileNext.js givesyou thestructure to build, deploy, andscale a completewebapplication.
🚀Key Advantages of ChoosingNext.js in 2025
1. Built-in Server-Side Rendering (SSR)
3. Hybrid Rendering Capabilities
5.Image & Font Optimization
This alignsperfectly withGoogle’sperformance guidelines in 2025. React.js doesn’t offer this natively.
7. Enhanced Developer Experience

Firstdates can be exciting and nerve-wrackingallatonce.You’re meetingsomeone new, learning about their interests, and trying to figureout if there’schemistrybetweenyou. And then there’s flirting, that delicate dance of showingsomeoneyou’re interested withoutbeing too forward or awkward.
Flirtingdoesn’t have to be a high-pressuresituation. Infact,it can bethe mostfun part ofgetting to knowsomeone. Whetheryou're meetingsomeoneonMixerDates orany other platform,the most important thingis to be genuine,staycalm, and let theconnection developnaturally.
Ifyou’ve everfoundyourself wondering how to flirton a firstdate withoutfeeling uncomfortable,you’re notalone. Everyonehas their awkwardmoments, but themoreyou understand theart of flirting, the easierit becomes. In thisarticle, we’llbreak down how to flirt in a way thatfeelsnatural, exciting,and authentic towhoyou are. So, let'sdive in and learn how tomakethe most ofyour firstdate experience—withoutoverthinkingit.
Whenit comes to flirting, confidenceiskey. But whatdoesit really mean to be confidenton a firstdate? Confidencedoesn’t meanyouneed to be perfect, or evenoutgoing—it simply meansbeing comfortable inyour ownskin and showing upasyour authentic self.
Haveyou ever noticed how people are drawn to thosewho radiate self-assurance?It’s not aboutbragging or dominating the conversation—it’s about presentingyourself with ease. Ifyoufeelgood aboutyourself,itwillnaturally show. A greatsmile,good posture, and eye contact cango a long way in making agoodfirst impression.
For instance, think about thelasttimesomeone walked into a room and immediately caughtyourattention—not because they werethe mostattractive person in the room, but because of their energy. They were confident, they were present, and theymadeyoufeelat ease. That’s the kind of confidenceyou want to projectonyourdate.
Whenyou're confident,you're not worried about saying the perfect thing. Instead,youfocuson enjoying themoment, making the other personfeel comfortable, and letting theconnection happennaturally. That’s themagic of confidence—itallowsyou to be present,fun, and,most importantly,yourself.
Let’s faceit—noonewants tofeellike they’rebeing “worked” or put through a game. That’swhy subtletyis such a powerfultool whenit comes to flirting.It'sall about showing interest withoutbeingover-the-top or too obvious.
Flirtingdoesn’talways mean complimentingsomeone non-stop or using cheesy pickup lines. Infact,the most successful flirtingis the kind that happens behind the scenes—subtle, playful, andlighthearted. Think about thelittlemoments,like a teasing comment about how theyalways order the same thingat a restaurant or the wayyou laughat a silly joke theymake.
Thekeyis to find a balance. Asimplesmile or a playful comment can convey interest withoutbeing too much. For example, ifyourdate tellsyou theylove hiking but theytend togetlost easily,you could saysomethinglike, “So,you’re telling meyouneed a personal guide? I couldget behind that!”It’slighthearted, humorous, andmost importantly,it keeps the conversationfun without putting too much pressureon thesituation.
By keepingit subtle,youallowyourdate tofeelat ease.Ittakes the pressure off them to be perfectand allows both ofyou to enjoy the interactionmorenaturally. Flirtingdoesn’tneed to be a performance—it’s about creating an environment where both ofyou canfeel comfortableand authentic.
Now,let’stalk aboutsomething incredibly important in the flirting game:active listening. When we’reon adate, we oftenget caught up in thinking about what to saynext, how we’re coming across, or if we’rebeing interesting enough. But the best way tomake animpression? Truly listening toyourdate.
Active listening meansyou’re fullyengaged in the conversation, givingyourdateyour fullattention and responding thoughtfully.It’s about showing thatyou care about what they’re saying and thatyou’re genuinely interested ingetting to know them better. Whenyou listenactively,you’re also giving them space toopen up, and that can create an immediateconnection.
For example, ifyourdate mentions they recently traveled toJapan, instead of simply saying, “That’scool!”you could follow up withsomethinglike, “Whatwasthe most memorable experienceyou had there?” This shows thatyou’re not just hearing their words but are genuinely curious and invested in their experiences.It’s a great way to build rapport and let them knowyou’re not just there toimpress them—you’re there toconnect.
Whileyour words are important,body language often speaks louder thananythingyou can say. Whetheryourealizeit or not,yourbodyis constantly communicating howyoufeel. Howyousit, stand, andmove tellsyourdate whetheryou’rerelaxed,engaged, or distracted.
Small gestures cango a long way in flirting. Alight touchon thearm, a subtle lean in when they’re speaking, or maintaininggood eye contact—all thesebody language cues helpsignalyour interest. Andthe great thingis, whendonenaturally, these cues can be justas effectiveas words.
For example, ifyou’resittingat a caféonyourdate andyou lean in slightly when they’re sharing afunnystory,you’re not just showing thatyou’re interested—you’re inviting them intoyour space.It’s aninvitation toconnect further. And when they respondby leaning in too, that’s when themagic happens—the unspokenconnection that tellsyou both that there’s potential formore.
Flirting throughbody languagedoesn’t mean making grand gestures orbeingoverly touchy.It’s aboutbeing present and showing thatyou’reengagedwith yourdate in a subtle, but meaningful way.
It’s easy toget caught up inoverthinking how to flirt or trying to figureout ifyourdateis intoyou. Buthere’s asecret—whenyou letgo of the pressureand allowyourself to havefun,everything flows muchmorenaturally. Flirtingon a firstdatedoesn’tneed tofeellike atest or anassignment.It’s supposed to be afun,lighthearted experience that sets the stage formore greatdates ahead.
Whenwas thelasttimeyou had a genuinelyfundate?Wasit whenyou were trying too hard toimpress, or whenyou were both laughing, chatting, and enjoying each other's company? Flirting becomes effortless whenyou're present, enjoying themoment, and letting theconnection grownaturally.
Sometimes,it's the smallmoments—like sharing a laugh or swapping embarrassing stories—thatmake a firstdate truly special. Whenyoufocuson havingfun,you create an environment where both ofyou canrelax, flirt, and let thechemistry grow. That’s thesecret to a greatdate.
One of the best things about using a platformlikeMixerDatesis thatittakes the guessworkout of the equation.Byconnecting withsomeonewho already sharesyour interests and values,you’vegot a head starton making a realconnection.No more swiping through countless profiles hoping for aspark—onMixerDates,you already know there’ssomething incommon.
Whenyou’re alreadyon the same pagewith yourdate, flirting comesmore easily. There’s less of that awkward, “Are we evenon the same wavelength?”feeling, andmore of thefun, “Wow, we reallyclick!” vibe. Whetheryou’retalking aboutfavorite hobbies, movies, orlifegoals, the conversation flowsnaturally, making the flirtingfeel effortless.

Speculative Chances of Finding an AdvancedCivilizationon Nearby Exoplanets
Exoplanet EstimatedLikelihood of a CivilizedSociety
Proxima Centauri b ~2%
LHS 1140 b ~0.5%
HowDid We (Very Roughly) Guess TheseNumbers?
Earth’s Example:
OnEarth,life beganassimple single‑celled organisms and took billions of years to evolve into a species that builtcomplex societies. This longjourney suggests that—even if aplanetis in the “habitablezone” (where liquid water could exist)—developing an advanced, civilizedsociety might be rare.
Proxima Centauri b:
Thisis the closest exoplanet to us. Even thoughitsstar (Proxima Centauri)is ared dwarf that sometimes sendsout strongflares (which might harmlife),its closeness makesitone of ourmost interesting candidates. That’swhy we giveit a slightly higher guess (~2%).
Theseplanets are part of agroup orbiting a verycoolstar. Their environments might be challenging (for example, they could be tidally locked, meaningone sidealwaysfaces thestar), so the chance of acomplex, advancedcivilization might be abitlower.
LHS 1140 b:
Thisplanetis promising in some ways butis alittle fartherawayand around a dimmerstar, so our playful estimateis evenlower.
All of thesepercentages are extremely rough guessesbasedon whatlittle we understand about the conditions forlife andintelligence. Scientists useideaslike the Drake Equation to think about these chances—but until we have concreteevidence, thesenumbers remain just forfun and imagination.

Understanding the Drake Equation
I’m mappingout the Drake Equationas a conceptual guide, detailingits parameters, which are oftenbasedon estimates or opinions, to evaluateits reliability for predicting extraterrestrialcivilizations.

Instead,it servesas a way to organize our thinking about what conditions might be necessary for the development of extraterrestrialcivilizations.It encourages discussion about the relative importance of differentfactors andhighlights where our scientific knowledgeis limited.
Is the Drake Equation Accurate orMore Opinion-Based?
Accurate?
In thesense ofbeing a strict mathematicalmodel with well-defined inputs and predictableoutputs, the Drake Equationis not accurate.Its accuracyis limitedbythe extreme uncertainties in several ofitskey parameters.
Many of the terms in the equation, especially those concerning theevolution oflife andintelligence, arebasedon opinion, interpretation, and the single example ofEarth. Therefore, while thestructure of the equationis logical, thenumbersyou put intoit (and hence thefinal result) are oftenmore reflective of our current opinionsand assumptions than of robust empirical data.
The Drake Equationis a valuabletool for framing the question of extraterrestriallife.It helps scientists and enthusiastsbreak down acomplex problem into smaller,more manageable questions. However, because several ofitsfactors are highly uncertain and subject topersonal interpretation,itismore of a conceptual guide—or even a way to stimulate discussion—than a formula that provides a definitive, accurate prediction of thenumber of extraterrestrialcivilizations.

同様に、学習障害と診断された個人の場合も比較的単純です。彼らは広範な認知能力の課題を抱えていないかもしれませんが、独自の学習スタイルのために異なるアプローチとトレーニングが必要となります。
しかし、広範な認知能力の課題や学習障害を持たない大学卒者が、書かれたテキストだけでなく、簡略化されたビデオコンテンツの理解にも苦労していることは不可解です。
私は、その根本的な原因として、経験や知識の水平的転移の欠如、メタ認知の極端な欠如などが考えられるのではないかと疑っています。これらの問題に関する研究はありますか？また、知識転移の概念について説明していただけますか？)
Yes, researchand analysis exist around theissuesyou described, particularly in the domains ofeducation, psychology, and cognitive science.Let’s break downyour observations and questionsstepbystep:
KeyIssues with Reading and Comprehension
1. Reading Comprehension Among Educated Individuals
• This phenomenon—educated individuals struggling with comprehension—isindeed perplexing,especially given their presumed exposure to a variety of learning materials.It suggests thateducation systems sometimes emphasize rote learning andsurface-level knowledge acquisitionoverdeeper understanding, critical thinking, and metacognition.
• Horizontal TransferGaps: This refers to the inability to apply knowledge or skills learned inone context toanother. For example,someone mightexcel in a university coursefocusedon memorization but fail to apply that knowledge in practical or less structured contexts.
• Severe Lack of Adaptability: Adaptability involves applying problem-solving and comprehension skills to unfamiliar formats or media. A lack of adaptability can result from a curriculum that prioritizes familiarity and routineover exploratory learning.
• Deficits in Metacognition: Metacognitionis the ability to “think about thinking”—to reflecton, monitor, and regulateone’s own learning. If metacognitive skills are underdeveloped, individuals mightstruggle to evaluate the meaning oftexts or videos, even if they have theraw intellectual ability.
Research Insights
1. Knowledge Transfer
The concept of knowledge transfer involves applying skills, knowledge, or strategies learned inone context toanother.Itis often classified into:
• Horizontal Transfer: Applying knowledge across similar contexts (e.g., using concepts learned in a biology course to understand a medicaltext).
• Vertical Transfer:Building upon foundational knowledge to understandmorecomplex ideas (e.g., usingbasic algebra to solve advanced calculus problems).
Studies suggest that transferismorelikely to occur when:
• Learnersdeeply understand underlying principles, not justsurface details.
•Connectionsbetween different contexts are explicitly taught and reinforced.
• Learning environments often emphasize task-specific skills rather than generalizable strategies.
• Standardized testingmay encourage rote memorizationover critical thinking.
• Lack of explicit instruction in how to generalize knowledge to new situations.
Researchhighlights the importance of metacognition in learning. Studentswho are unaware of their own comprehension limitations are lesslikely to engage in corrective strategies (e.g., rereading, seeking clarification). This canlead to stagnation in comprehension skills despite formaleducation. Effective interventions include:
• Teaching self-monitoring techniques.
• Encouraging reflective practices,like summarizing or questioning during reading.
4. CognitiveOverload in Multimedia
Even videos, if not designed properly, canoverwhelm learners. The CognitiveTheory of Multimedia Learning suggests that excessive extraneous information or unclearorganization in videos canoverload working memory, hindering comprehension.
Strategies and Research-Based Solutions
1. Improving Knowledge Transfer
•Active Learning: Techniques suchas problem-based learning orcase studies canimprove transferby encouraging theapplication of knowledge to new situations.
• Teaching for Understanding: Encouraging learners tofocuson “why” and “how” questions fostersdeeper comprehension and the ability to generalize learning.
• Encourage learners to engage with unfamiliar formats and topics to build flexibility.
• Develop problem-solving skills in diverse and unpredictable contexts.
3. Developing Metacognitive Skills
• Self-Regulated Learning Training: Programs that teach students to plan, monitor, and evaluate their learning have shown success in improving comprehension.
•Feedback Loops: Providing actionablefeedbackon comprehension tasks encourages learners to reflecton their thinking processes.
Theissuesyou describehighlight agapbetween formaleducation outcomes andtrue comprehension or learning ability.Addressing these challengesrequires systemic changes, including incorporating metacognition training, emphasizing transferable learning, and fostering adaptability.
Ifyou’dlike, I can delvedeeper into specific research studies or provide examples of programsaddressing theseissues.
Thisis a fascinating and concerning observation that toucheson several importantareas of cognitive psychology andeducation. Let meaddress this systematically.
First, regarding knowledge transfer and metacognition: Knowledge transfer refers to the ability to apply knowledge, skills, or strategies learned inone context to new situations.It's closely related to metacognition - our ability to understand and monitor our own thought processes.
Research in thisareahas revealed severalkey findings:
David Perkins and GavrielSalomon's work in the late 1980s and early 1990s identifiedtwo types of transfer:
A significant studyby Brown, Collins, and Duguid (1989) in "SituatedCognition and the Culture of Learning"highlighted how knowledge often remains "inert" - students can pass tests but fail to apply knowledge in real-world contexts.
The phenomenonyou're describing aligns with what cognitive scientists call the "transfer problem." Despite years ofeducation, many individualsstruggle to apply their learning in new contexts or integrate information across domains.
Some relevant research directions:
1. Cognitive LoadTheory (Swelleret al.)
Shows how working memory limitations affect learning and transfer. Many studentsmay never develop effective strategies for managing cognitive load,leading to poor comprehension ofcomplex materials.
2. Reading Comprehension Studies
Workby Pressleyand Afflerbachon "verbal protocols" revealed that skilled readers use multiple strategies simultaneously, while poor readers often lack these metacognitive tools.
3. Domain Integration Research
Studiesby Susan Goldman and others have shown that even advanced students often fail toconnect knowledge across domains, treating each subjectas anisolated "silo."
Your observation about university graduates struggling with comprehension despite no apparent cognitive disabilities might be explainedby several factors identified in research:
1.Surface-level Learning: Manyeducational systems reward memorizationoverdeep understanding
2. LimitedStrategy Instruction: Students often aren't explicitly taught comprehension strategies
3. Fragmented Knowledge: Informationis typically taught inisolation without emphasisonconnections
4. Weak Metacognitive Skills: Studentsmay never develop the ability to monitor and regulate their own understanding
Some promising approaches toaddress theseissues include:
Teaching explicit strategies for comprehension, integration, and transfer. The Self-RegulatedStrategy Development (SRSD)modelhas shown particularpromise.
2. Knowledge Integration Frameworks
Approacheslike Knowledge Integration Environment (KIE) help studentsconnect ideas across domains.
3. Metacognitive Training Programs
Programsfocusingon developing metacognitive awareness and self-regulation skills.
Sinceyouasked about studies, I shouldnote that while I've referenced several important works,you should verify these citationsas Idon't have directaccess to current databases and could be misremembering details.
Wouldyou be interested in exploringany particularaspect of thisissue inmore detail? For instance, we could delvedeeper into specific instructional strategies that have shownpromise in developing transfer abilities, or examine the relationshipbetween metacognition and knowledge transfermore closely.

Everywebuserhasat least once encountered loss ofinternet connection. This happens for a variety of reasons, suchas a dysfunction inthe cellularnetwork or a brokeninternet cable. However, regardless ofthe reason, everyGoogle Chromeuser sees the Dino game (when thereis nointernet) instead of a plain blankerror page.This game can be played without aninternet connection.
Play game:Dinosaur T-Rex Game
Despitethe fact thatthe gameis just a plain runner that’s built into theGoogle Chromebrowser, the developers behinditstill deserve a round of applause. The peculiarmonochrome graphics and the simplicitymakethe game even better, andithas gained a lot of worldwide fans sinceits launch.
Themain character ofthe gameis a classic dinosaur, a Tyrannosaurus rex, the species we usually see in movies and books about dinosaurs.It’s a carnivorous type of dinosaur from the Cretaceous. Inthe gameit runs through the desert, encountering pterodactyls and cactuses thatneed to be avoidedby jumping or ducking.As thedistance the dinosaurhas traveled increases, sodoesits speed, whichiswhyit’s quite difficult for an inexperienced player toget ahigh score, even thoughthe gameitself seems easy.
Surely,all ofyou are curious about the development of theChrome Dinosaur Game Online, solet’stake alittle trip back intime.
The development of theT-Rex game dates back toSeptember 2014, however, thefinal improvements were completedonly inDecember of that same year. The adjustments supported earlier versions of theAndroidoperating system.
Sebastien Gabriel,one of the designers ofthe game, says that theT-rexwas chosenas a funny reference to "prehistoric times", when highspeedinternetwasn’t so widely spread.
TheT-rexwas also not an accidental choice. The offlineChrome Dino game (withoutinternet)was also called "Project Bolan", referring to the popular singerMark Bolan from the 70s band "T-Rex". While creatingthe game the programmers also thought about making Dinogrowl or kick. Eventually these features were rejected in order to keepthe gamesimple and "prehistoric".

A longtime ago, in a certain country, therewas a bastardnamed Cinderella.The reasonwhysheis called Cinderellais becauseshe sprinkledher ownashesonher own headathermother'sfuneral, whichled toherbeing called theash-coverer, whichiswhyher realnameis Cinderella. Ilost
The husbandwholosthis wifewas also a bastard, and the day after thefuneral he cheatedon awoman three yearsyounger thanhim, hadsex withher, and evengot married.
I have decided. Then, toher Cinderella
Shenowhas an oldersisterand ayoungersisterwho are not relatedbyblood.
Hersisterwas a bitch too,she came to Cinderella'shouse
After a fewdays,she thought, ``Wouldn'tit bemore convenient to have an outbuilding?'' and cut down Cinderella'smother's grave inhergarden and the hundreds of years oldtree thatwasnext toher grave, and built an outbuilding. We forced construction.
One day, the bastard's family receivesnews of a ball from the castle. But before Cinderella could readit,hersisterbroke thenews and said, ``There's no wayyou cango.'' Cinderella didn't seem to haveany intention ofgoing either, saying, ``I had no intention ofgoing in the first place.I'd rathergo tohell.''
Then,on the dayhermotherwas admitted to the hospital to givebirth,hersister went to the ball. In thegarden, the construction of an outbuildingwas progressingas usual.
“Let’slight afirehere andmake a bonfire.”
She thought about that, but Cinderella stoppedher. Suddenly, awitch appeared
``Cinderella,why aren'tyougoing to the ball?''asked thewitch.
"What's thepoint of telling Teme?"
Cinderella returned with anax inher hand
Then, for somereason, Cinderellawas wrapped in ajewel-likedress.
"Ifyoudon'tgo to the ball, thatdresswill killyou.Nowgo."
Cinderella doesn't want to die in a placelike this, soshe reluctantly decides togoto the castle.
In the castle, someassholelikehersisterwas looking for aone-night stand andwas dancing wildly. Noone really praised others, and in theirhearts theyall seemed to think that they were the center ofthe world.
Cinderella didn't dance, but killedhertimeby smoking a cigaretteat the end ofher room. There,shewas approachedby aman wearing formal clothes that were flashier andmore expensive thananyone else, and said toher, ``Miss, won'tyou dance?''
Sheis Cinderella with a cigarette inher mouth
She said, ``Ionly dancewith the GrimReaper and bad luck.''
she answered. For somereason, theman fell inlove withherat first sight, andshe said, ``Let's have somefun in the other room.Here, come.''She tried to force Cinderella totakeher toanother room in the castle. However, Cinderella pressed the cigaretteshewas holding intoher hand.
"Her hand slipped,"she laughed.
Whenshe pressed the cigarette, the sound inhervoicewas so pitiful that noone tried toget close tohim or dance withhim. Of course, noone even knows that such a pitifulmanis theprincewho owns this castle.
Eventually,she had enough, Cinderella threwhershoesonher stairs and went back toherhouse inher bare feet.Hershoes weremade of glass, so they shattered intopieces.
Thenext day, whileher servantwas cleaning the castle,shefoundone shoeon the stairs. Obviously thinking thiswas strange,she secretly examinedhershoes and discovered that they had been smeared with a deadly amount ofpoison.
Rumors spread within the castle that this must be anattempt to kill theprince, and soon a large-scale investigationwas conducted. Even thoughit's a survey,it'ssimple.
Theideawas to create a replica of a shoe and imprison the personwho matchedit perfectlyas a suspect.
Andone afteranother, people were imprisoned just because of their size. Some of them had not been to the ball, but they thoughtit must be alie and were forciblytakenaway.
Eventually, an investigation came to Cinderella'shouse. That's when weall lookedathermother and child aftershewas discharged from the hospital, and of coursehersister didn'tfit.
Soall thatwas leftwas Cinderella. Then,hersister said to Cinderella, ``Hell suitsyou better than this world.''
Shewas of course the perfect size for Cinderella.
However,she protestedherinnocence, saying that I hadn'tgone to the ball and therewas nodressanywhere inthe house to proveit.
However, theprince showedhim anempty pack of cigarettes that had been discarded in a trash can and said, ``Thisis the samebrand that the criminalwas smoking thattime.Why?''
I unbuttonedall the buttonsonher jacket.
She said, ``Afterall, Ifeellike dancingwith the GrimReaper. Right,littleprince?''she said.
Bythe time theprinces realizedit,itwas already too late.
Thegrenade that fellathis feet blew up Cinderella and theprince.
The timewas aroundnoon. Bells rang throughoutthe city and residents prayed forlunch.
The flyingfragments of the shoe became a weapon, asad fragment that couldonly hurtsomeone, and noone could imagineitsoriginal form.
