I was debating whether this should be posted here or in the Natbag reopening thread. Mods feel free to move if you see fit.

Such cognitive dissonance, telling the mind what it wants to hear while giving the palette what it wants to eat.

Apparently when turning on CC on Twitter videos, it tries to transcribe in the language of the country from which the account originates. I find it amazingly accurate for Hebrew, but it also leads to some interesting results.

For anyone that can read Arabic script, it's quite amazing how relatively accurate the transcription (Hebrew in Arabic script) is for this video (especially considering that often when there is a mismatch between the language and the country it just shows "unable to transcribe").

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Interesting thread.

Thanks for sharing, interesting thread indeed. Also great way to hone my Hebrew jargon in this space as I知 used to seeing all this terminology in English.

#HoneHebrewJargon

Lots of it is transliterated and that takes getting used to enough, but there were also native/adapted Hebrew words. Just from the first tweet: מחולל, סיננתי, הנדסה לאחור. All terms that I can parse in my sleep in English but really had to focus to comprehend/follow the thread in Hebrew (yes, even with all the transliteration).

So are you going to reverse engineer it and create a "liked DDF post generator" so satiate @YitzyS and eliminate world hunger?

I知 downplaying an approach where the sustenance provided just leaves people hungry for more likes.
