Try to keep it practical (like something that would be fairly doable, you just havent gotten around to it…yet)
There are apps that you can input text into and they can replace the characters in each word incrementally to help learn them. Wanna get into that
If you’re involved in any kind of protest, the phone number of a lawyer. Hell, generalize this. Make sure you memorize numbers of at least the first few of your emergency contacts. You never know when you will be separated from your phone.

Proper sequence of attaching jumper cables.
That one is easy positive, negative, nipple, nipple.
Which one is the positive nipple?
The right one
The one that’s red.
Wait… they’re both… hmm
Negative negative
Positive positive right?Sometimes a chassis connection?
The important thing is not to complete the circuit near a battery, since it can cause sparks which can ignite the flammable vapors that batteries tend to emit when discharging. This is especially important near the dead battery, which has potentially been discharging quite a lot recently.
So the usual sequence is:
- Dead positive
- Live positive
- Live negative
- Dead ground (to the metal chassis, ideally not right next to the battery)
I usually start by clipping the dead negative cable to something non-conductive to keep it out of the way and then move it to ground as the last step.

What do white glasses usually mean, wat is that convention?
Oh its a reference to an anime trope. Characters will push up their glasses and the lenses become white from glare when they “have you”. As in they’ve bested you in some way, usually intellectually.
U havent already? How many digits could it cost, 10?
Nah I have, it just took me enough times of needing it and not having it to do so

Basically any song on guitar that I like. I can sing the entire song back to front, but I can’t for the life of me remember the chord sequences. And I’ve been playing for many years.
Why should I memorize songs that you like?
What? Why do you understand my comment like that? This is about me.
That’s the joke, sweetie.

How to convert various units of measurement. (Including between imperial and metric.)
2.54 centimeters in an inch. Degrees Fahrenheit is nine fifths of degrees Celsius plus 32. Stuff like that.
Converting between hexadecimal and binary. It’s not that hard and it would’ve been useful many times, but I still haven’t memorised it
What is there to memorize about it? The 16 binary values? What is that useful for?
When is it useful past the point of just looking it up as need be?
It’s not something you try to recite. You just do it so many times you became too good at it to look at the table.
Four bits can represent up to 15, from 0000 to 1111. Correspondingly, 0 to F in hex.
Binary from right to left is 1, 2, 4, 8.
One byte is eight bits. It takes eight digit places.
XXXX XXXX0000 0000 to 1111 1111
00 to FF
0 to 255I mean when would it be so necessary that it jystifies itself or the time cost to do so
It’s useful if you’re a network engineer or a web designer.
Sub netting baby!
If you’re a software engineer, memorizing an ASCII table (particularly the hex numbers of each character code) is definitely helpful. If for no other reason than so that you can read things that are randomly written in binary without having to consult a table.
Something not really otherwise terribly useful that nonetheless helped me keep my sanity: learn how to convert to base64 in your head. At work, we had really boring 8-hours-a-day training for a couple of weeks. To pass the time, I came up with random strings to base64 encode in my head. “
Hatis48 61 7a. The first six bits are010010which in base64 is anS. The next six bits would be000110which in base64 isG.” Etc. I’d write down the base64 strings character by character as I derived them and then check my results for errors when I got back to my desk.

Articles of German Nouns
Do Germans care a ton if you get the wrong article? That must be a common thjng for even native speakers to get the article wrong on millions of individual words
They learn the article with the word. So they never really have a problem. The biggest problem is that the article is necessary to know how other words need to be written.
Also, in English you can have one word that is written the same but can be the name of two entirely different things. We use the context of the sentence to determine which word is actually intended. Germans know through different articles, which word is intended.
Also no German really gets upset by it if you get it wrong. They know that German is complicated in that regard. They are usually just happy that you are trying.
The only person that has ever said anything at all about it, is a colleague that I asked to correct me. It helps with the learning process.
This was my sentiment. My German grandma LOVES that I even try
I find that it’s mainly frustrating to those learning German at an advanced level, since using a wrong article immediately exposes you as a non-native speaker. Because yeah, as the others said, it hardly ever happens that native speakers use a wrong article…
