Has Duolingo helped you learn much? I have never tried it.
it's not like the streak is as important as the actual process.
This is how I see it, but it has also become (weirdly) part of the process, because of the brain hack for habit - I am a monkey!
Telling someone to remember that there's worse people out there is a pathetic reason to excuse awful behaviour.
See! An asymmetry! I only killed seven people, the Nazis were much worse! :D
The insidious up/down cycles are otherwise relatable.
Yep. We all go through them, but it feels like that line from the Lion King with Zazu talking about Scar - "There's one in every family, two in mine" :)
