Apparently not all 8 year old daughters view half pint orders with respect either. It didn't help it was served in one of those mini pint glasses but she ripped me for getting a "t…

I've had the opportunity to spend the last 12 months working on a translation SaaS that does everything the $50k+ incumbents do but also automated QA and LQA, A/V work, smart LLM t…

Worth discussing.

You're reading it wrong. He's giving an alternative reason why it's not used in enterprise.

Nice, enjoyed the image as someone who has been to the events. But also easy raccoon placement :)

Read again closely.

Yep, did a speed run of foundation, intermediate and full in the UK back in 2016 (within the year). Full means I can build radios up to 400W, which is nice. Not sure I actually cou…

Surprisingly, it's only ~800MB uncompressed. I've only had a cursory look so far, and seen all the images I've ever generated, all audio snippets out of context and a ~100MB html c…

That's concerning. Kids in Oz were getting around social media age restrictions by holding up celeb photos. I doubt that'll work in this case, but I'd be tempted to start thinking …

I concur, and find it abhorrent. And wish more people would kick up a stink about this. We need a publication or channel that talks about rights like this. I don't know of any that…

I really appreciate this write-up. Was forced to verify to get access to a new account. Like, an interstitial page that forced verification before even basic access. Brief context …

Thanks for the reply. So then how is following distance determined? It would have to be further than braking distance to be at least as safe?

Wait, what do they teach in North America? Never heard the term "following distance" before now. Sounds misleading. In Britain at least we call it "braking distance" and you're sup…

I guess I should talk about some benefits to users, and who users should be. For: localisation departments, dev teams who want AI translation with human polish (which persists into…

Hi HN, In 2014 my idea of a futuristic translation tool was a souped up Vim plugin or an ncurses TUI app that would autocomplete typing and do hyper-fast translation memory lookups…

I read it last year, enjoyed the book, no existential crisis. I already subscribed to the idea of the self and identity being independent and constructs. A lot of reflection around…

Not to stand up for bad laws, but what is wrong with everyone in the comments? On what planet would they not have considered all angles? The peanut gallery has gotten ridiculously …

The discussion has devolved to such a point that people from outside the UK keep parroting this (likely Kremlin originated) line that the UK is now a Muslim stronghold with no free…

I agree. I also don't know how that could realistically be achieved, with everything nowadays being lowest common denominator, aid budgets being slashed and drawbridges being raise…

I should have said why I'm against "Libre" as a term. I'm into FOSS, so I get it, and speak other languages, so I get Libre has a wider adoption elsewhere. But not in the English-s…
