Cognitive Distortions in Mastering the 'Tenses' of the English Language, or Those Who Hinder Us Are Also Our Helpers

Posted on

*The Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon, or Frequency Illusion — a cognitive distortion where recently learned information appears to recur unusually often after a short period of time. Everywhere there are "bugs"... Each of us is packed with "bugs" — cognitive distortions. The question arises: how can a person's perception of reality occur without them?

The original article is published on the Vastrik.ru website and was released on 3DNews with the author's permission.

Each of these sites will praise a specific language, and 90% of them will ultimately recommend Python or JavaScript. Without further ado, I would like to officially declare that all […]

It was started by certain individuals, with specific values, and they had a vision, ideas, and a plan. What assumptions did the revolutionaries have when they created this plan? For what reasons? Where did they intend to lead humanity? At what stage are we […]
