  • If you need translation for just getting facts and information for say math equation and its annotation translated, there’s little margin in variety, what you need is database - that’s mostly fine.

    Pieces need translation are usually not like that. They have cultural context, pun, wordplay in rhymes, structural parallel, underlying tone, a lot of things only work in the language originally written. Translation is always a (nearly impossible) challenge for the translator to reconstruct all of them in target language.

    I did game translation for a while. Translation is a field where AI hit first and honestly I’ve seen people lowering standards. The criteria of “good enough”, “passable” is not the same compared to pre-AI days, and will keep changing. I’m almost sure this trend is happening in every industry the same way, and “just translation” is a slippery slope.

    The (attempted) Figma acquisition announcement promptly led to emerge FOSS alternative of collaborative prototyping tool too.

    Also I want to mention Graphite.rs for graphic design. It aims for vector/raster image with procedural customization capability and in early development. Last I checked they don’t do much outreach and having feedback helps too.

    Since in bespoke world vampires are living (in active sense) relic of old humanity. Bunch of vampire hunters are actually archaeologists in the field wanting to prove their hypotheses and once they find ancient ones they sample tissue, record mannerism and study as though they’re coelacanth
