I know not everyone likes backtesting, but imo it's a valid strategy for checking out new indicators. I'm thinking of trying something like OneShotAlgo or LuxAlgo next. Have any of you used these indicators? Has anyone found really accurate indicators while backtesting?
Hi everyone. I came across an internal stu͏dy from the Pro͏mova app team, and the numbers caught me not as abstract marketing but as a description of my own experience with Spanish.
According to the study, 81% of users stop being afrai͏d of mistakes in conversation after regular prac͏tice, 80% say they feel less nervous and anxious during learning, and around 36% explicitly note they beat their fear of speaking and feel more confident. The numbers cover different languages, but on Spanish specifically I think they land especially hard.
Let me explain why. Spanish is one of those languages where real conversation with native speakers starts very early. Latin Americans and Spaniards do not wait for you to hit B2, they speak to you fast, emotionally, and with no allowance for your grammar. Personally, at my first meetings with Mexican colleagues my entire A2 Spanish just switched off, because all that was running in my head was one question: what if I say something that comes out funny.
For whom did the breakthrough with fear of speaking Spanish actually happen, and what exactly triggered it? For me it came when I started a daily spa͏nish speaking practice through an ai spanish tu͏tor for 15 minutes in the evening, no live audience and no grading. After a month of those sessions I caught myself at the next meeting with the same Mexican colleagues just starting to talk, and the thought of what if something comes out wrong did not manage to kick in. Curious what actually worked for you: a similar format of regular practice, a live conversation with a native speaker, a trip to a Spanish-speaking country, or something completely unexpected?
I keep going back and forth on this.
16GB still sounds fine on paper.
But then I think about how people actually use these laptops and it stops feeling so simple.
It is never just the game.
It is the game, Discord, a browser with too many tabs open, Spotify, random apps in the background, maybe some editing, maybe some work, maybe some AI nonsense, whatever.
And then suddenly 16GB does not feel that generous anymore.
That is why I keep looking at laptops like the Zephyrus G16, Legion Pro 7i, MSI Vector 16 HX AI, and Dream Machines RT5070-15NA22 and thinking the RAM matters way more than I used to think.
Not even because 16GB is unusable.
More because if I am already spending real money on a gaming laptop, I do not want the one part I cheaped out on to be the thing that annoys me later.
So I am curious where people land on this now.
Would you still buy 16GB in 2026 and save the money
or does 32GB already feel like the smarter buy if you want to keep the laptop a while?
