    Dear Friends, \n\nToday I'm presenting the third episode of my Transiberian trip. it I talk about fear: how we feel and represent fear. \nLooking back, I remember the ever changing landscape of Siberia through my window and thinking: I will never see this again. \nChange is all around us and yet we fear it - I can't understand why. The only thing I know is this : that we cannot be paralyzed by it. Life is motion.\n\nLove\nPaulo

  • the importance of human values in the relationship between humankind and technology
  • To do innovative research and to make the world a better place, we need to marshal expertise from across academe, as well as across corporate research environments, so that the right tools are used to analyze and understand ways of enabling values for different places, agendas, economies with different infrastructures and different values in mind.

  • focus attention and to create a shared mind
  • If we move forward and recognize the importance of human values, how might we do it, what would it entail, what difference would it make?
  • the values the systems might be providing is often more important

  • I’d like to point a finger at the font downloads. Loads of applications on windows (an therefore wine) depend on the corefonts. These fonts are not part of wine and can’t be packed together with wine because of different licenses. So if You had apps, showing only symbols and garbage, this is for You
    • Graham Perrin
      Graham Perrin on 29 Sep 08
       
      OK, this confirms what I suspected: that AbiWord appears better after using TRiX to install required fonts.

Live Meeting Home Page - Microsoft Office Online - 0 views

  • Graham Perrin on 27 Sep 08
     
    In November 2007 I hosted my first Office Live meeting but it was a dismal failure. 1) No audio. Are they kidding? 2) Application sharing fails. In simple terms: no sharing of PowerPoint or whatever is on screen. 3) Regarding the latter, I was referred to a web page for more information. The web page is non-existent. Considering these deficiencies, I had to say that Office Live Meeting Web Access was a non-starter. I'm all for this type of technology when it works - reliably - but Microsoft's offering is certainly not reliable enough. I'm not alone…

      There's a workaround or fix for this, AFAIR the symptom ceased after I used TRiX (bundled with the kronenberg.org build 1.1.5 of Darwine) to install its three suggested categories of fonts.

Google Translation Center: The World's Largest Translation Memory - GigaOM - 1 views

gigaom.com/...lds-largest-translation-memory

shared by James OReilly on 05 Aug 08 - Cached
  • Google is preparing to launch Google Translation Center
  • This is an interesting move, and it has broad implications for the translation industry, which up until now has been fragmented and somewhat behind the times, from a technology standpoint
  • Google has been investing significant resources in a multi-year effort to develop its statistical machine translation technology.
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • Google Translation Center is a straightforward and very clever way to gather a large corpus of parallel texts to train its machine translation systems.
  • If Google releases an API for the translation management system, it could establish a de facto standard for integrated machine translation and translation memory, creating a language platform around which projects like Der Mundo can build specialized applications and collect more training data.
  • On the other hand, GTC could be bad news for translation service bureaus — especially those that use proprietary translation management systems as a way to hold customers and translators hostage.
  • For freelancers, GTC could be very good news; they could work directly with clients and have access to high quality productivity tools. Overall this is a welcome move that will force service providers to focus on quality, while Google, which is competent at software, can focus on building tools.
  • That strategy would also eliminate a potential conflict of interest
  • translation professionals are understandably wary of contributing to something that could put them out of work
  • as well as avoid channel conflicts with partners who will be their best advocates in selling to various clients
  • my guess is Google will make this a free tool for the translation industry to use, and it will figure the money part out later. It can afford to be patient
  • I remain convinced that a multilingual web will be a reality in a short time, and that a menagerie of tools and services will emerge over the next few years — some geared toward helping translators, some toward building translation communities, and others that make publishing multilingual sites and blogs easy and intuitive.
  • the web will begin translating itself, and within a short time
