Reading with expression; that's how my place of work (a primary school) teaches the children when reading. It makes sense to use a wide range of tones when reading.
I finished the audio book in two days, and it's absolutely recommendable... Not only is the book interesting, but Hannah’s voice makes it so much more engaging. I rarely recommend an audiobook over an eBook, but in this case, I'll make an exception.
i listened to a sample of her audio book, and I just love her voice. I think with a little vocal coaching, she would become a decent singer. And after a few years of practice, she might be able to record a good music album.
The irony re. viewing this video (wherein Hanah, eventually, summarizes the contents of her book which discusses how our information technology-driven world, and our actions in it which we believe to be entirely elective upon our part, are more and more becoming governed by algorithms) is that it came to me via an algorithm generated/used by RU-vid.
This was nice to see. I love the tip about the children's book. I never thought about that and will try to do that more when I do some voice over work or even when streaming. I'll check out Hannah's book as, obviously, these kind of topics are super fascinating to me.
TUShared This must be the first time in history that something is available here in Germany before it is in the US. But I can assure you once it is published over on your side of the pond you will have fun listening to it ;)
When Hannah talked about this idea of a book never ever been finished it's only been passed on remember me of Lord of The Rings and how Tolkien took and awful lot of time to finish all his works
About collecting data: I like that my doctor have all my medical information on hand when we discuss about procedures or medication. So when government buys an eye exam from a private company and I sign a paper that they should give the exam info toi the givernment health care system I'd assume they do it. But they did not and that delayd my eye treatment months. So hiding data is not always the way to go.
I read scripts on video as a part of my job and I actually gesticulate MORE when recording VO than I do when on camera, haha. Reading scripts is a strange thing.
Unfortunately, by modeling things and acting upon them you actually influence the real world. So, if you keep this up you can reach a sort of local maximum based on your model which would not have occurred if you would have chosen randomness. Policing certain areas is a good example of that. The very act of policing a certain area more or policing/patrolling it less very much alters how much crime you find, further strengthening the suggestion to look even more into that area.
People putting trust in machine learning and making actual policy decisions is scary af. I trust to rolling dice as much as I trust probabilistic algorithms filled with bad data...
if you require a book to be _read to you_ , you reached a new level of low. if you can't make the time to *read* something you *want* to understand, a) your priorities are messed up, and b) you'll then prefer anything to be *told* to you. and when people favor *being told* things rather than *researching* that which they want to know about, .....they'll forget how to do so, and take anything for granted. congratulations, channel-that-promotes-research-development-and-knowledge! you just effectively funded *indoctrination* how's that feel?
exactly. at least *reading* something you put your attention to it, because you control the flow of information (you hold the book, you turn the page, you follow the text, you jump back and forth between chapters, you read the titles and build up a structure in your mind) you can't control what's read to you, if you don't know the structure of the information that is about to be read to you. ....... and if you don't know that, and accept it, you tend to accept whatever is fed to you subconsciously. which is what the premise of "listen to this book while doing something else" submits. no, don't do something else if you want to do this.... do this, or don't. don't do things half way.
Gee-whizz, I used to listen to audiobooks quite often when I had a 25-minutes commute. Nothing wrong with that; in fact, better than what you can hear on the radio...
