The translator's job is particularly difficult when they are meant to translate something that is misinterpreted in the original culture. A comment about this would seem political.

For example, in this transcript:

https://www.nytimes.com/2016/10/08/us/donald-trump-tape-tran...

It clearly says "When you're famous, women [you don't have a relationship with] will consent to [aggressively] grabbing their vagina". I added the brackets based on the context, but I didn't add the word consent: in the original the word consent is the word "let". A perfect synonymn. If you say "I let him do that" in the past means exactly "I consented to his doing that." It's the exsct meaning.

(We know that "they" refers to the women and not the media (i.e. they'll let you means the women will consent, not, the media will let you get away with it) because immediately before, Trump set the topic of what women will and won't consent to.)

Immediately before, he mentioned how he was rejected:

"I moved on her, actually. You know, she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it."

(After a followup)

"I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. And she was married. "

This is hard to translate and must be done with care. As a translator I would look at some of the context, the whole context. This is as follows:

Trump: I moved on her, actually. You know, she was down on Palm Beach. I moved on her, and I failed. I’ll admit it.

Unknown: Whoa.

Trump: I did try and fuck her. She was married.

Unknown: That’s huge news.

Trump: No, no, Nancy. No, this was [unintelligible] — and I moved on her very heavily. In fact, I took her out furniture shopping.

She wanted to get some furniture. I said, “I’ll show you where they have some nice furniture.” I took her out furniture —

I moved on her like a bitch. But I couldn’t get there. And she was married.

---

I would be 80% confident that the correct translation is: "I made an advance on her, but she rejected me and I stopped." (It is hard for me to know what "moved on her like a bitch" means. I am puzzled.)

But the parts I have given clear, unambiguous black and white translations for is that, in the context of being famous, usually women will consent to very aggressive sexual advances.

That's the meaning of the words.

Not the meaning of the words: "You should just grab women by the vagina without asking."

The English-language culture (on both sides of the aisle) is not used to interpreting someone.

So to bring things full circle, I would translate the excerpt:

And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.

(Man) Whatever you want.

Trump: Grab ’em by the pussy. You can do anything.

--

"Even grab them intimately, they will allow even that."

----

That is the correct translation, because the translator's loyalty is to the speaker, not to the media, politics, etc.
This is actually very nice.

I'd just like to point out as well, that unlike many other similar attempts it is is not based on pygame, and does not suffer from either the flakeyness nor installation irritations that comes with.

Instead it implements a very minimal (dependency wise) custom layer on top of glfw.

Many people will be skeptical of a python game engine, but I would recommend this one over many others.

As a native English speaker living in France, I notice a lot of translations from English into French as being less-than-accurate. It's most obvious when journalists are trying to translate live.

The recently concluded Tour de France was a standout example of this as journalists with responsable English sought to translate what English-speaking supporters/fans and riders had said. Sometimes it is close enough, but some commentators and journalists get it really, really wrong - on in particular (who seems to be rolled out for any sport where the winners are likely to speak English) is famously bad, sometimes inventing what he WISHED the person speaking had said rather than something close to what the person actually said. Good for a chuckle when its not consequential, but potentially disastrous for more serious matters.

Sounds a bit overkill tbh. Atleast in my school the guys above simply decreed that if someone had an allergy, everyone should be mindful of it (of course, one bully tried but after he got charged for attempted murder on the aftermath nobody else dared).

That counted for allergies other than peanuts too which can be just as severe.
0. Choose a platform that doesn't bankrupt you if you're less than perfect at 1 to 7.
Actually what I was getting at was pricing - customers who are used to getting something for free will always think that any charge is outrageous. In non-tech examples people think that what are reasonable prices are gouging etc. Not that gouging doesn’t happen, but the public is bad at judging what a reasonable price looks like.

In the specific case of whatsapp, it would be interesting to see what would happen if the service did offer a $1 a year subscription. I’d pay, assuming that data wouldn’t also be used or sold for advertising. But I have a gut feeling that most wouldn’t, they’d rather switch to something that cost nothing, even over something that was very cheap.

Psychologically the gap between free and any cost is large. Which means that for a business, people are either willing to jump that gap or not. The price itself isn’t really a huge factor, it’s free vs not free, so the price may as well be higher than $1, or whatever the minimum viable amount is.

Also the post above was making some wild comparisons that I wanted to point out are silly.

Well, that would be like going to the cinema for Marvel movies and then refusing to do amateur films because you think that you would not be able to make Marvel movies on your own.

in theory, when all transactions happens between participants on a free market, then the real value added by a participant tend to be their sale price minus all their cost.

I think it's only when you have non perfect market condition (like monopoly, monopsony, captive company) that the real added value is not visible and where your idea of mixed taxes is needed. Do you think it make sense or do you something other in your mind?
> In hot climates you have some power use when the sun is up (cooling, pool heating,) but where I live I’d need my power most when the sun is absent in night and winter (power use is probably 80% heating). Any amount of solar power would be nearly useless if only available when the sun is shining.

Not a subject matter expert by any means but depending on how much sun you get, there are probably better options than solar for you (solar might not be the right choice for you).
There is plenty of other potentially lethal allergies that can be just as severe, singling out peanuts is overkill as I mentioned in a sibling thread. (Soy, milk, wheat, gluten. Especially wheat allergy can cause reactions just as severe as the stereotypical peanut allergy)

DevOps Anonymous – Lessons Learned from Building Cloud Infrastructure
I think the point is to provide a set of tools for people that build data pipelines. Period. The software being open source don't reflect in any way WHO will use this tool. Depending on the success of this project, it might be that you could switch your team to this new tool at some point.

Personally I work as a "lone wolf" (to my own complains) because I'm in a small company that can't afford a huge team. Most of my (ETL) Transforms are done in SQL which happen to be pretty standardized as opposed to many ETL products I've seen so far.

This solution is probably far from being ready, but I find this approach quite interesting, because it look like a code based ETL that use SQL for transform (so I might be biased). Overall this might result in a more maintainable/versionable data pipeline model than GUI-first ETL which usually generate spaghetti code. Because you are usually forced to regularly adapt data-pipeline to unstable external inputs, being able to easily diff ETL process would be a blessing.
oh well that would be whole other post how we were choosing international name with same transcription in English and most European countries (including our potential destinations for settling), how it could not contain R because wife it's Chinese (who unlike Japanese can't really pronounce it) and didn't want extremely common name like quarter of children in class (i had name like that and it's PITA and don't understand people who don't check statistics and just choose one of the top 10 names) and how the length should balance with my family name and other factors i don't remember now

there really should be some training for people how to choose proper name and they should pass some basic test so their choice would be accepted because their child will be living with such name, not careless parents

Knight’s Move at the BBA – Senior Management Libor Rigging
A lot of the debate in this thread is conflating two questions: are engineers more capable than MBAs? (Answer: of course not, in the sense that MBAs can do things that engineers can't, and are often very smart and technical people). Secondly, are MBAs less ethical than MBA, or do they make the decisions they do because they are exposed to market realities that engineers aren't? This is a tough and abstract question, and I think the answer depends largely on your feelings about capitalism and economics in general.

Just wondering if someone had a similar experience: I absolutely loved Math in school, zipped through the classes, always one of the best.

Then things changed at university (studying computer science) and I completely lost interest. Not sure why (bad teacher, going from being best in class to being average, the math at uni different from school).

Now, much later, I regret not having followed through and miss the beauty of Math. I'm re-discovering it and wondering how I could use more of it in my work.
Well "how a thing is said" gives a lot of information about the intent of the person saying it. You can say nice things with a heavily condescending tone. Words alone are not the whole information.
Two points:

1) Scheme is really really simple to learn. If learning a new language is a major obstacle, you will not be able to finish the course anyway, since it includes implementing multiple small languages.

2) Some of the tasks would be nearly impossible in Python (or any other non-homoiconic language). One exercise is implementing a metacircular evaluator. To do this in Python would require you to implement scanner, parser etc - a major undertaking.
I think decisions made only based on reasoning or only based on emotions can be extremely bad, in a lot of circumstances a mix of both is necessary.

> These aren't examples of just productionizing a PhD thesis

His point is that sometimes research bears fruit, and sometimes it doesn't. All universities (in my country) now have metrics for how much research must successfully bear commercial-fruit or else they lose funding from the government and the EU. As such, they have commercialisation pipelines that funnel viable commercial research into products. However, even these funding bodies don't expect that anything more than a fraction of research will be commercialisable. That isn't the point of research.

> we've watched as many ML PhD graduates launch startups which are little more than an API wrapped around the key algorithm from their thesis. These startups nearly always fail, because they don't actually address a market need.

Why do you care what someone does with their PhD research anyway?

You first have to ask the question, can the Chinese government ignore the market longer than the market can ignore the Chinese government.

The answer so far is no and not only in China.

Once the global market is reconfigured in such a way that it funnels benefits back to China they no longer ignore it. Much the same way the Portuguese reconfigured the Asian spice market in the 16th century to their benefit for the next two centuries.
> The censorship project won't remain confined to China.

I agree, but this is not the immediate issue with the current decision being made - as you implied. The immediate issue is the enforcement of the loss of freedom for Chinese citizens.
Google protects the user data from access by others. The data is valuable only if Google alone has access to this data and can sell it as a monopoly premium product.

If everyone had access to the user data the value would be 0.

Of course, Google doesn't give a shit about protecting the privacy of their users, they hoover up all they can and then bunker it.

Good question. I have no idea.

If my intuition is accurate, systems like the DOOM engine just crunch through each frame's workload as a sequential queue, tending to things like the audio buffer whenever necessary. I don't know if there's any asynchronous code to speak of in there.

2) "We can remove the biggest obstacles to using deep learning ... by making deep learning easier to use"

3) "Research to make deep learning easier to use has a huge impact"

Because this article rants against academics, but is written by an academic, it reads as inconsistent and disingenuous. Wild guess...AutoML and Google are worrying competitors to whatever their business is?

IBM did research back in the 90s on perceptually-based colormaps and how to best represent various types of data within the color dimensions of luminescence, saturation and hue [1]. For exmpale, they found that,

(1) Hue was not a good dimension for encoding magnitude information, i.e. rainbow color maps are bad.

(2) The mechanisms in human vision responsible for high spatial frequency information processing are luminance channels. If the data to be represented have high spatial frequency, use a colormap which has a strong luminance variation across the data range.

(3) For interval and ratio data, both luminance- and saturation-varying colormaps should produce the effect of having equal steps in data value correspond to equal perceptual steps, but the first will be most effective for high spatial frequency data variations and the second will be most effective for low spatial frequency variations.
