Not sure, I think first image is square or geometric Kufic (sometimes called "Satrancli Kûfi" in Turkish) of course looks quite different than typical Kufic script.

This argument is weird, in all cultures and religions children usually follow their families traditions and beliefs.

Doner kebap was invented in Ottoman empire in 19th century. It was also usually eaten inside bread.

Turkish immigrants introduced it in Germany in 70's. However it is true that the current version of Doner kebap in Germany is quite different than Turkish counterparts. (Sauces, toppings etc)

"We have examples like Elon who, through sheer force of will, defeats armies of people who don't care. For his many faults, you can't say the man doesn't care"

Yikes.

Terrible take, wall is not the red herring, wall is the reason of deaths of almost all souls in the plane. "Something bad is going to happen" usually has very different outcome than hitting a concrete wall.

Aviation accident history definitely disagrees with you.

So survival chance of hitting a concrete wall and open field would be same?

I don't think so.

Hm yes, they probably meant script then. Fwiw, It reads "Avedis Zilciyan şirketi - Avedis Zilciyan company" of course the funny thing about Ottoman Turkish is that it is heavily influenced by Arabic, persian and later French, so the the sentence has a persian root (Zil) an arabic root (Şirket) 2 Turkish suffixes, -ci and -i , an armenian suffix and an Armenian proper name.

Are you sure gp meant Arabic the script, but not the language? If latter, it would be completely wrong (because it is Ottoman Turkish), if former, it would be slightly inaccurate.

Their ancestors were citizens of Ottoman empire and their business exits because of Sultans patronage. Who knows how they feel about the connection, yours is only speculation.

When I see people looking at Tiktok videos in the bus, they usually look like possessed by something, a few seconds of gaze with glassy eyes, flip, flip, flip. It is so weird, I feel a bit sick in my stomach when I see it. Regardless of its potential as a brainwashing and manipulation vector, I personally completely banned it in my household (facebook/ instagram was always banned).

Since interview process is also flawed in many ways luck based, if you cheat and moderately capable, you can totally stay there and even go up in ranks.

Do you think this is a good poem by any measure? Imo it is terrible.

Yes, probably there is more going on here, e.g. it is cheating.

Indeed, I see the word "key" in titles of many click bait LLM generated articles. Probably it is creating a self feedback loop now.

So it becomes "completely useless" when it gives you the correct answer but also recommends some other videos?

I guess people's perception becomes extremely skewed when they are disappointed with something. After this you give them examples and they swiftly move the goal post.

I see this argument in HN a lot, so I checked my search history (googled "search history") it seems I use it ~10-20 times a day, looked at individual searches e.g. last week, and except a few queries, I have found what I was looking at.

Yes it is hard to find some stuff in internet because it is filled with generated affiliate spam and walled gardens, Has Google stopped working for me? Nope It seems still alive and kicking.

(HN doesn't want me to continue with this nonsense deeper, so adding here). Just to note, it is not only grammar books, there are several papers about it as well, you could see it if you actually bothered understanding the nuances of it. So I am wondering are you an expert in linguistics and Turkic languages? Do you have a real source that supports your thesis? My guess is you are not, so indeed there is no need for further discussion.

If you remove "some" and change it to mean that it is the "only" thing that conveys temporal information how does your initial argument hold? It is a tense, and all grammar books I have and see agrees that it is a tense. I am not a native speaker but I understand enough, but I get the impression that you are not a native Turkish speaker, That's fine, but then you may not have a complete grasp on something like this

Ok i see that you are being deliberately obtuse. Because by saying some, you meant time aspect was not primary. Which is wrong.

Anyway, I have put a bit more information about this tense up in the discussion.

I am not sure I agree. The suffix -miş (and 4 other similar forms because of vowel harmony) is first and foremost indicative of time (the past). Yes there is the mood aspect, but time aspect, IMO, is primary.

From the book "Turkish, a Comprehensive Grammar": The markers of past tense in Turkish are the verbal suffixes -DI and -mIş and the copular marker -(y)DI. "the past copula -(y)DI expresses past tense in absolute terms; that is, it locates a situation in a time prior to the moment of speech. -mIş, by contrast, is a marker of relative past tense."

Robert Underhills "Turkish Grammar" calls it Narrative past tense.

Geoffrey Lewis "Turkish Grammar" writes "the mis-past is exclusively a past tense" " miş-past. This base is formed by adding -miş to the stem: gelmiş, görmüş, almış, bulmuş. Two distinct functions are combined in it."

I said "the" because you said "it conveys 'some' temporal information".

It coveys "the" temporal information in the sentence and it is always past. E.g. A children's story only contains this nothing else.

I also didn't login to the site. I wanted to see what it is about, but why do I need to sign in to see information?

I have also immediately thought the same question. This is probably the most crucial part of the whole estimation and indeed left out in the article.

Yikes, I am glad I never watch that channel, probably instinctively sensed its rotten smell from distance.

"it's useless. GPT-2 level" Really?

In my experience they are at similar level for most tasks.

I agree they have no idea about journalism. I remember they had put a big pile of emails sent to some government agency in Turkey. It was all some people complaining about daily things, reporting issues in their cities etc (emails were not anonymized of course), They just dumped them and claimed they were exposing the corrupt government.

The thing described is far from separation of church. It is straight out oppression.
