Предложения со словом «Well»

These are some of the best-studied people on the planet, and the data has become incredibly valuable for scientists, generating well over 6,000 academic papers and books.

Это наиболее изученные люди на планете, а полученная информация стала невероятно ценной для учёных, став основанием для более шести тысяч научных публикаций и книг.

As you know, many people have a tough start in life, but they end up doing very well on some measure nevertheless, and this study starts to explain how.

Как вы знаете, многие, родившись в тяжёлых условиях, всё же справляются с этим и живут вполне благополучно, и исследование объясняет как.

Having engaged, interested parents in those first few years of life was strongly linked to children going on to do well at school later on.

Иметь вовлечённых, заинтересованных родителей в начале жизни напрямую связано с тем, что их дети справляются и добиваются успеха в школе.

And not just tests of reading, but tests of spelling and maths as well.

И не только в тестах на чтение, но также по орфографии и математике.

It looked at children growing up in persistent poverty and how well they were doing at school.

Оно рассматривало детей, растущих в постоянной бедности, и то, как хорошо они учились в школе.

Now that means that poverty leaves a really lasting scar, and it means that if we really want to ensure the success and well-being of the next generation, then tackling child poverty is an incredibly important thing to do.

Это значит, что бедность оставляет действительно устойчивый след, и значит, если мы и правда хотим обеспечить успех и благополучие следующего поколения, то искоренение детской нищеты является невероятно важной задачей.

So as people settle in the countryside, well, they will buy local groceries, fresh groceries, foodstuff, maintenance services.

Когда люди люди переедут в деревню, они станут покупать местные продукты, свежие продукты, и ремонтироваться там же.

And the game system works really well for this.

И эта игра действительно отлично подходит для этого.

Well, what I do is that I study life in those environments on Earth that most closely resemble other interesting places in the universe.

Я справляюсь с этим, изучая жизнь в таких средах обитания на Земле, которые больше всего напоминают другие интересные места Вселенной.

Well, because I was born and raised in the Atacama.

Потому что я родился и вырос в Атакаме.

But even here, well hidden underground, we found a number of different microorganisms, which suggested to me that similarly dry places, like Mars, may be in inhabited.

Но даже там нам удалось обнаружить ряд микроорганизмов, спрятанных под землёй и тем самым доказавших, что даже такие места, как Марс, могут поддерживать жизнь.

And I was running out of time, so I showed the egg video and then said, Well, you can work it out, and ask me afterwards to check.

У меня заканчивалось время, поэтому я показала видео и сказала: «Вы можете подумать, и потом спросить меня для проверки».

Of course, the same principle applies in other strong communities as well — good ones and bad ones.

Конечно, тот же принцип применим и к другим сильным сообществам, как к хорошим, так и к плохим.

Well, that might sound scary.

Звучит пугающе.

you did not prepare at all well because there is no way you could have been that disorganized.

Ты плохо подготовился, иначе не объяснить такую несобранность».

Some people thought I did well, others, poorly.

Кто — то оценил мою работу высоко, кто — то — низко.

And this is what I want to talk you through, as well as how do we challenge this in a modern era?

Вот об этом я и хотела поговорить с вами, а также о том, чем мы сегодня можем ответить на этот вызов.

And actually, this is usually very positive things, very seemingly empowering things, such as brotherhood and sisterhood and a sense of belonging, as well as giving somebody a spiritual purpose, a divine purpose to build a utopian society if their goals can be met.

Это обычно что — то очень хорошее, что — то вселяющее в тебя уверенность, вроде братства и сестерства, а также чувство причастности, и наделяющее тебя духовной целью, целью свыше — построение утопического общества, если цели будут достигнуты.

Even more downstream, we developed a pilot program called One to One, where we took former extremists and we had them reach out directly to a group of labeled neofascists as well as Islamist extremists, and put direct messages through Facebook Messenger into their inbox, saying,

Идя дальше, мы разработали пилотную программу «Один на один», когда мы обращаемся к бывшим экстремистам и просим их напрямую связаться с группами, называющими себя неофашистами, а также с исламистами, и оставляем сообщения им на почту в Facebook Messenger с текстом.

When the Mosul Cultural Museum opened in 1952 in northern Iraq, this statue, as well as others, were placed there to preserve them for future generations.

Когда в 1952 году на севере Ирака открылся Культурный музей Мосула, эта статуя вместе с другими была помещена туда, чтобы сохранить наследие для будущих поколений.

Well, the key to this technology is called photogrammetry, and it was invented here, in Germany.

Основа этой технологии — фотограмметрия, и она была изобретена здесь, в Германии.

Well, simply because the statue was positioned against a wall.

Просто потому что статуя стояла напротив стены.

And there it is the partial reconstruction of the statue, as well as the Lion of Mosul, the first reconstruction completed by our project.

И там частичная реконструкция статуи и Лев Мосула, первая реконструкция, созданная в рамках проекта.

Well, the internet is basically a database with millions of images, right?

А интернет — база данных с миллионами снимков, так?

Well, the same thing is true with the government today.

То же самое происходит сегодня с нашим государством.

We have been believing that everybody can learn and learn well, as long as we provide good learning materials free on the web so that they can access through the internet.

Мы всегда верили в то, что каждый способен учиться, и учиться хорошо при условии, что мы обеспечиваем хорошими обучающими материалами, находящимися в свободном доступе в сети, то есть их можно найти в интернете.

But such wonderful materials may benefit only those who can read well, and the percentage of those who can read well may be much less than we expected.

Но такие замечательные материалы могут помочь только тем, кто хорошо читает, а процент тех, кто хорошо умеет читать, может быть гораздо меньше, чем мы ожидали.

Well, maybe we should run a survey to find out what society wants, because ultimately, regulations and the law are a reflection of societal values.

Мы можем провести опрос, чтобы узнать общественное мнение, в конце концов законы и регламенты являются отражением общественных ценностей.

First of all, people said no to regulation; and second, they said, Well if you regulate cars to do this and to minimize total harm, I will not buy those cars.

Прежде всего, люди были против такого закона, и во — вторых, они сказали: «Если машины будут обязаны минимизировать вред, то я такую машину не куплю».

Well, figure out what the formula is, show it to me.

Выясни — ка, что это за формула и покажи мне,

Well, I would never make an algorithm that inconsistent.

Ну, я бы никогда не создал такой непоследовательный алгоритм.

Well, what if they replaced their hiring process with a machine-learning algorithm?

Что, если бы они заменили процесс найма машинным алгоритмом?

Reasonable choice would be, well, who is successful at Fox News?

Разумным было бы выбрать тех, кто преуспевает в Fox News?

Well, this is a story about what happened in my city when we decided to find out, when we decided to think differently about panhandling, and lift people up through the dignity of work.

Итак, эта история о том, что произошло в моём городе, когда мы решили выяснить, когда мы решили взглянуть на попрошайничество с другой стороны и помочь людям подняться с помощью работы.

Well, we wondered if anybody would call that 311 sign, and as it turns out, they did — 11,000 times people called.

Итак, нам стало интересно, звонил ли кто — нибудь по номеру 311, и, как выяснилось, звонили, 11 000 раз.

Well, if you are, my friends, I promise you there is a better way.

Итак, если вы готовы, я обещаю вам, что это наилучший путь.

Well, the day of the eclipse found us and many other people out behind the Hyatt Regency, on the beach, waiting for the show to begin.

В день затмения мы и многие другие оказались около гостиницы Hyatt, на пляже, ожидая начала представления.

Well, about 10 minutes before the total solar eclipse was set to begin, weird things started to happen.

За 10 минут до того, как должно было начаться полное затмение, стали происходить странные вещи.

Well soon, it was obvious it was getting dark.

Вскоре стало очевидно, что темнеет.

Well, at that, a cheer erupted from the beach, and I took off my eclipse glasses, because at this point during the total eclipse, it was safe to look at the sun with the naked eye.

В этот момент на берегу раздались крики и аплодисменты, я снял очки для затмения, потому что в момент полного затмения можно было легко смотреть на Солнце без всякой защиты.

Well, there is nothing truly more awesome than a total solar eclipse.

Нет ничего более потрясающего, чем полное солнечное затмение.

Why should aging well mean struggling to look and move like younger versions of ourselves?

Почему старение превратилось в судорожные попытки лучше выглядеть и вести себя как в молодости?

This discrimination affects our health, our well-being and our income, and the effects add up over time.

Эта дискриминация влияет на здоровье, благополучие и достаток, и эффект со временем только усиливается.

Is this the world we want our children, who may well live to be a hundred, to inherit?

Тот ли это мир, который мы оставим нашим детям, которые смогут дожить до ста лет?

This is called image classification — give it an image, put a label to that image — and computers know thousands of other categories as well.

Это называется классификацией изображений, дайте компьютеру картинку, присвойте этой картинке категорию, и он выдаст вам тысячи похожих.

Well, in the past, object detection systems would take an image like this and split it into a bunch of regions and then run a classifier on each of these regions, and high scores for that classifier would be considered detections in the image.

В прошлом система опознавания объектов брала такое вот изображение и разделяла его на множество секций, а затем запускала классификатор по каждой из этих секций, и высокий рейтинг классификатора считался определением изображения.

Well, at the beginning of the semester, I looked at the book, and in this 400-page book was about a 14-page section that was on black people in painting.

Короче, в начале семестра я листал учебник, и в этом 400 — страничном учебнике было примерно 14 страниц о чернокожих в живописи.

Well, what about plain old legged-robot delivery?

А как насчёт обычной доставки роботами?

OK, so far this is not going very well.

Это не очень хорошо.

And so outrage works really well at getting attention, such that if Facebook had a choice between showing you the outrage feed and a calm newsfeed, they would want to show you the outrage feed, not because someone consciously chose that, but because that worked better at getting your attention.

Гнев прекрасно справляется с привлечением внимания, и если бы у Facebook был выбор, показывать ли вам новости, вызывающие гнев или нейтральные события, они бы выбрали первый вариант не потому, что кто — то сознательно это выберет, а потому, что это больше привлечёт ваше внимание.

Well, imagine an entire design renaissance that tried to orchestrate the exact and most empowering time-well-spent way for those timelines to happen.

Представьте полное возрождение дизайна, который попытается создать для нас лучший способ жить так, как мы хотим.

And imagine instead that there was another button there saying, what would be most time well spent for you?

И представьте, что была бы другая кнопка с вопросом: «Как бы вы хотели провести время?»

What will be time well spent for ours?

И как его лучше потратить?

What would be the perfect timeline that might include something later, would be time well spent for you here at TED in your last day here?

Какой был бы для вас идеальный день здесь на TED, последний и полезный?

Well, the key, then, is to apply all these exciting advancements in cancer therapy earlier, as soon as we can, before these resistance clones emerge.

Ответ кроется в необходимости применять все эти многообещающие достижения в лечении рака на раннем этапе, как можно раньше, до появления устойчивых клонов.

Finding cancer early results in better outcomes, and the numbers show this as well.

Ранняя диагностика приводит к лучшим результатам лечения, и это подтверждает статистика.

Well, I wouldn’t be up here giving a talk if it didn’t.

Наверное, да, иначе я бы тут не выступал.

Well, because there’s no way of really predicting right now which patients will get cancer, we use the next best population: cancers in remission; specifically, lung cancer.

Поскольку невозможно точно предсказать, у кого появится рак, мы решили взять одну популяцию — пациентов с раком лёгких в стадии ремиссии.

This one is best reserved — very important note — this one is best reserved for people you know well, because random strangers typically don’t appreciate teachable moments.

Этот совет лучше приберечь — очень важное замечание — лучше приберечь для людей, которых вы хорошо знаете, потому что случайные знакомые часто не ценят моменты, которые могут чему — то научить.

Well, as it turned out, the Constitution did its work.

Ну, как оказалось, Конституция сделала свою работу.
