Asked on December 20, 2021 in Word choice.
What are some theories about quantum leap? What is defined as
“quantum jump” ( noun ) a huge, often sudden, increase or change in something
Usage warnings:
1) The phrase also has a very specific and more formal meaning in the realm of physics. Why would this word be used to refer to a scientific paper?
When you say your system made a quantum leap for a certain value, be prepared to show the hard data that shows what you mean, and exactly how much it increased. If it can’t be explained completely, you will have to explain why it failed.
Footnote:
In computer science, the terms exponential growth and increased by an order of magnitude are often used, but again, you’d better be sure the actual performance increase mirrors the phrase you use. (I wouldn’t use “order of magnitude” in a computer science paper unless the performance had increased by a factor of ten, for example.)

Had Seany Hide tweeted “This is not yet news” then that would have directly stating that the announcement wasn’t news. Other sources have commented on the use of op-ed features, but this is not a news-advertiser.
Why did Hide utter the words “Of course they can.” “This merely suggests this is not news; it does not say so explicitly.

Is there even a copy of the originals you write?
I am not sure I care
anymore for you. Give me the best one I can.
I used to
love you and now I’m unsure if I have done something wrong.
This word anymore simply signifies the speaker once had love with another person. Exclamations from Canada: The expression not sure indicates uncertain about love at the current time.
I don’t
wanna wait another minute to find out how much you love me back 2nd
I want to make sure to ask myself why do I love you? Is it true that you still love me? Is your love gone? The
first part is saying, “I don’t want to wait any longer to find out.” Please tell me now! I
just decided I should never send the users of the ELL, who is wasting time on the internet, to find where I found nothing you want us to analyze! , I just listened to the song. Is it an Al Jolson song? If yes how do I interpret it?
I long for Jeannie, and my heart bows low
Never more to find her where the bright waters flowFirst and foremost; that’s poetry, and you should know that nobody talks that way in conversation. I am sad ( heart bowing low )
because I won’t see ( find ) jeannie near the river ever again.
The expression never more is poetic way of saying something will never happen again.

Asked on December 20, 2021 in Other.
Im not sure whether to stand for hot stands in contrast to quiet and damaged in your sentence. I’m not sure why you say Frank is hot in spite of the fact that he’s quiet and damaged. Is there just a reason? Therefore, if I were writing this, I’d probably break the list of adjectives into two, so they could be properly contrasted:
That’s Frank. What if he’s hot, but he’s quiet and damaged?
What was the name of Frank? He’s quiet and disabled – but he’s hot.What makes Frank so hot?
The old boy is quiet and cold, but he’s damaged.
If all the adjectives are negative or positive, we can string them together.
I’m going to scrap my old, beat up, loud pickup truck.
What adjective can you use between positive and negative?
It’s old, beat-up, and loud, but it’s reliable.
Is that good over: I’m
going to scrap my old, reliable, beat-up, loud pickup truck.
Why I don’t find reliable in that list of descriptors especially useful.
