What does "to scale with sth" mean in the following text?
> We show in Figure 8 the relative construction errors achieved by the incoherent frames before, F0, and after training, F. The improvement is obvious but notice that it does not scale with dimension N due to the incoherent structure.
The relative error has become lower, so that is an improvement. But as N increases (I don't know what N is), the error of F doesn't change (= it does not scale with N); it is not a variable according to N.
@TIPS Not entirely, but that gives at least a flavour of what I was referring to. I suppose it's one of those beauty is in the eye of the beholder situations.
@TIPS Good. :)
@sumelic In this particular case, "I'm twenty for six months" would refer to the upcoming six months, rather than the six months just past. In other words, it's saying something along the lines of: "I'm (or I'll be) twenty for six months, then I'll turn twenty-one."
@Lawrence don't actually hold me to facts, man. I vaguely thought that I had misremembered that it had been written somewhere unknown, that, to americans, 'chaise longue' was mistakenly pronunced 'shayz lowndzg' and that they parse it as '(weird word) lounge' with lounge as the noun. Theref ore suposedly misparsed as it 'ADJ NOUN'.
Which reminds me. Today is 'Speak in French Sunday'. We are all supposed to speak in French on ELU chat today.
Hey guys, good morning. I'm trying to think of a good word to describe myself last night. I was with a big group of friends (ten people total) and I often feel anxious in big groups and become slow and inarticulate. I was the opposite of witty. What
What are some words to describe that?
Like, when the wrong words come out of your mouth and you butcher idol
@Færd It's not feel like - it's just like that you're replacing. (Just like it's not like I -> as though I.) And yes, you can replace like with as though in that sentence and retain the meaning.
@Lawrence Thanks. I wondered if feel like wouldn't be mistaken for fancy, which of course doesn't make sense in that sentence, but still I thought maybe feel as though or feel as if were clearer.
