“Server” in this case refers to client-server architecture.

helvetpuli@sopuli.xyzto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How does Netflix, HBO and other services get their subtitles? Are they now using AI to help translate?73·25 days agoMost of us can’t read as quickly as we can absorb spoken language.
I learned this directly when I decided to create English subtitles for French films and TV as an exercise when I was trying to get from B2 to C1 in French. It was a good exercise, but the result was unusable because the text often goes by too quickly to read.
That’s when I understood that it really is an art.
The subtitle artist must make descriptions work, punch lines land, and reproduce dialog with the correct gravitas. And they have to do it while cutting 50 percent or more of a meaningful, culturally-grounded translation.
It doesn’t seem like the kind of thing an id-less ml model could ever do.

Don’t do it to impress people, but to really learn. Hey native language tutors. Go out and embarrass yourself trying to speak with real people.
This plus maths and music is probably the best exercise for your brain.

helvetpuli@sopuli.xyzto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•JD Vance says Europe should have done more to stop Iraq WarEnglish6·2 months agoLiving in a french-speaking country it’s hard to forget.

Hey. I’m part of the ad hoc team which is assembling to continue development of Mobilizon. So far it’s just a tiny group based out of Lyon France, but we’re growing.
Are you willing to provide us at least some small guarantee of access to Thomas for advice and explanations about the decisions he made about the architecture and what direction it should take? I know that her already answers queries, but I worry that it’s on his own time.
