How deep a body of water is can be measured from the surface of water to the bottom. You should always be sure you know how deep a swimming pool is before demonstrating your backward somersault dive.

Water can be deep or shallow, and exactly how deep it is can be measured. You can also describe a space not made of water as deep — like when you discover a little house made of candy deep, or far, in the woods. Things can even be figuratively deep when they are extreme, like «deep thoughts» or a «deep recession.» The Old English word deop means «deep,» but it also means, «awful, mysterious, and solemn.»

You’ve written that this entire century has basically been a disaster, that the age of sunny growth is over and we’re in deep trouble.

So I wonder whether there’s ground here to create almost like a shared agenda, a bridging conversation, on the one hand recognizing that there is this really deep problem that the system, the economic system that we built, seems to be misfiring right now.

Прежде всего, нужно глубоко вздохнуть и начать поддерживать дочерей в желании кататься на скейтборде, лазать по деревьям и взбираться по тому пожарному шесту на детской площадке.

So unless we have really universal and not national basic income, the deep problems are not going to go away.

Так что без реального универсального — не национального — базового дохода, глубинные проблемы никуда не денутся.

This, I think, is the deep reason for the feelings of alienation and loneliness and so forth, and therefore part of the solution is not to bring back some mass nationalism, but also reconnect with our own bodies.

Вот в чём, по — моему, глубинная причина чувств отчуждения, одиночества и им подобных, и поэтому частью решения служит не возвращение к массовому национализму, а восстановление связи с собственным телом.

Idea number one: we need news that’s built on deep-domain knowledge.

Идея номер один — строить новости на глубоком знании.

It’s our job as journalists to get elbow deep in complexity and to find new ways to make it easier for everyone else to understand.

Это работа нас как журналистов — с головой окунуться в сложное и найти новые способы помочь людям его понять.

In certain parts of the country, particularly the Deep South, the rates of mother and infant death for black women actually approximate those rates in Sub-Saharan African.

В отдельных частях страны, особенно на Дальнем юге, уровень смертности чернокожих матерей и младенцев почти такой же, как в странах к югу от Сахары.

And I’ve been fueled by a deep scientific curiosity, and a passion to change these statistics.

Мною движет глубокая научная любознательность и страстное желание изменить эту статистику.

Then 45 years later, in 1997, Deep Blue beats Kasparov at chess.

Затем, 45 лет спустя, в 1997 году, Deep Blue выигрывает в шахматы у Каспарова.

And that’s exactly the kind of intuition that our deep-learning systems are starting to develop right now.

Это и есть та самая интуиция, которая начинает развиваться в наших системах глубинного обучения.
