They gave the wrong time to the #ASL and #CART #interpreters and have to reschedule.

Just came across this post on r/ProgrammingLanguages and it blew my mind. I had never even considered how my bytecode design might impact cache locality.

Most consultant #interpreters get used to answering the same questions. But for churches, there are some very specific questions they need to answer if interpreting is to work for them.

After many more hours than I’d like to admit, trying to setup and configure the jdtls language server in Neovim, and still not being able to force it to use the workspace directory in my project, rather than spawning a new one in my $HOME, I’m throwing in the towel.

Instead of completing https://craftinginterpreters.com/contents.html in the original Java, I think I’ll use Go or Rust. Or Lua. Or bash. Anything but java.

Fellow #interpreters #1nt, how do you rate #ChatGPT as a way to boost your terminology research and to generate fake training speeches?

We were very surprised when we tried the new GPT-4.

#AI will only take over from human #interpreters when it stops doing what most human interpreters say they do.

#interpreters, if you ever get worried about #AI taking your job, just remember that yesterday, #chatgpt told me that it's fine to use chuchotage for up to 15 people at a time. I think we're good for a while yet.

Any #Spain-based #interpreters here? What is the origin of using the term #documentation to refer to the process of preparing for an interpreting assignment? I could not find a definition of "documentation" or #documentación that matches that description.

The Interpreters' Co-op is looking for #Burmese #interpreters who are comfortable with remote interpretation. Boosts appreciated!

Massachusetts per diem court #interpreters are organizing to get their first raise in 16 years. They are indispensable to our system and deserve what they are asking for.

Interpreting a piece of music means to delve into the composer’s mindset and present it just as it was meant by the author. One must never add a personal interpretation! Outstanding interpreters just as Benedetti Michelangeli, Arrau, Gilels, Horowitz did their best to do it.

I threw together a page with a few of my favorite resources for learning and hacking on #compilers and #interpreters

Do any other #interpreters enjoy changing language mid-sentence just for the fun of it?

#Russell had no #PragmaticSemiotics so his perspective on signs and #SignRelations was mired in #Syntacticism, a species of #Nominalism. From #Peirce's POV we are able to ask, and we have to ask, what could it possibly mean for a sign to refer to itself? Indeed, do signs refer to themselves at all, or is it only that #Interpreters refer signs to their objects? The whole problem looks very different once we take that point of view.

Among youth seen in a pediatric weight management clinic, anti-obesity drug prescription rates were lower in Hispanics/Latinos compared to non-Hispanic Whites, particularly when no interpreter was used.
