How did Dutch end up in the English wordbank for a Portuguese lesson in Duolingo?
A screenshot of a Duolingo Portuguese exercise with the Portuguese saying "O avô adorava contar piadas.", the filled in English answer saying "Grandpa loved telling jokes", and the leftover words being "day", "swimming", "week", and "uit nieuwsgierigheid"

Liking Swift is one thing, but this is something else
The first two posts from the "Announcing the Android Workgroup" Swift Discussions thread: https://forums.swift.org/t/announcing-the-android-workgroup/80666. mishal_shah 23h We are excited to announce the creation of the Android Workgroup! The primary goal of the Android workgroup is to establish and maintain Android as an officially supported platform for Swift. To learn more and get involved with the Android Workgroup: Read the Android Workgroup charter Discuss ideas in the Android forum Use the @android-workgroup handle to reach out to the workgroup directly in the forums ---- Sajjon Alex Cyon 🇸🇪 ❤️ 🇺🇦 8h I was gonna write congratulations Swift. But actually more like: congratulations Android developers! Today Android devs can develop in the great language Kotlin, soon they can develop in the AMAZING language Swift! This is really cool to see! Well done everyone who has worked on this so far! Off topic: GPT generated inspired by Dr Kings 'I have a dream' - but the dream of SwiftUI support on Android, Windows and WASM (Collapsed content that doesn't need to be posted here)

AI is good at translation actually
A screenshot of a Portuguese Duolingo exercise asking to translate "A ponta da mesa" with the "correct" translation coming from a word bank as "The tip of the table"

So not only can you run Windows 7 in Parallels' x86 emulator with Aero, it also even supports Coherence.
A screenshot of macOS showing Firefox open to google.com in the background and the Windows 7 Task Manager and Control Panel windows open in front of it, using Parallels' Coherence feature.
