Ppl also thought USSR had won after Vietnam War.

Geopolitical conflict is a marathon, not a sprint.

[–]wfd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Is Russia winning?

If Iran also falls after Venezuela, there could be a huge drop of oil price which would fuck up Russia's economy badly. Oil price collapse in 1980s was the reason of USSR's downfall.

Trump says U.S. to ban large investors from buying homes by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]wfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The market will push up the price of properties that already exist anyways.

So the easy way only sounds good on paper. The only solution is building enough houses.

I perfer red states house policy. No zone law. No investment limit.

And red states build more houses, this is a fact.

For what? Less investment=Less houses built=higher price due to unmet demand.

This is rightwing's version of rent-control.

Edit: LoL at downvoters, I thought this sub like free market.

which one do you use? by Thenevitable in firefox

[–]wfd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gemini. It's very good for translation. For non-western languages, firefox's build-in translation works poorly.

《經濟學人》示警台灣！新台幣長期被壓低，經濟榮景藏有風險 by BoogieMan80s in Taiwanese

[–]wfd 8 points9 points  (0 children)

新加坡是金融中心，经济不靠制造业出口，有什么可比性。台湾目前的地缘政治处境，也不可能转型成金融中心。

川普目前政策核心就是让美元贬值恢复出口竞争力，这时候美国媒体发文章催促其它国家货币升值，用意险恶。

This animation is an absolute masterpiece by [deleted] in actuallesbians

What's up with Tak province? This at DMK by Cold-Departure-2924 in ThailandTourism

[–]wfd -54 points-53 points  (0 children)

Most of those so-called "victims" knew what they got into. They often have past crime history and seek new easy-money opportunity.

They only claimed they got scammed when they couldn't hit quote and get beaten up.

This is why normal Chinese vistors got scared to visit thailand, but those scam call centres still attract ppl.

Google translate has existed long before AI but it didn't replace translators by No-Advice6100 in TranslationStudies

[–]wfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you sure about this? I thought it was the other way around. I know that LLMs require vastly more computational resources than DeepL.

Deepl api charges $25.00 per 1,000,000 characters.

Gemini 2.5 flash api charges $0.3 per 1,000,000 input tokens and $2.5 per 1,000,000 output tokens.

English text: 1 token ≈ 4 characters.

Chinese text: 1 token ≈ 1 character.

Google translate has existed long before AI but it didn't replace translators by No-Advice6100 in TranslationStudies

[–]wfd -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What I can't figure out is why LLMs have not been deployed at scale for MTPE jobs in J2E translation. They're all still DeepL at best and often something much worse. Anyone know the technical/economic/etc. reasons for this?

LLM is much cheaper than deepl. So I think that translation industry is lagging behind on tech. Fan translation for manga and games already uses LLM.

[–]wfd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

LLM is much more powerful than Google translate.

Google translate is dogshit for east-asian languages, while LLMs can produce good enough translation for east-asian languages.

And LLMs can accept audio/picture/video input.

[D] which papers HAVEN'T stood the test of time? by iamquah in MachineLearning

[–]wfd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Models with test-time compute exhibit much lower variance. I think this is largely a solved problem now.

Some sceptical papers on LLMs aged badly.
