I can’t begin to explain how difficult translating a text actually is. When I was at uni, language majors had two dedicated classes, one for translating from your first language and the other for translating to you first language. Both were the hardest classes to pass. I had bilingual friends there who had shit grades solely because their methodology was lacking. In the philosophy department, teachers were constantly discussing who translated what text and how it might impact our understanding. Teachers would compare different translations and ask us to always tell who the translator was in our research exercises.

Language is a fucking mess, translation is horrible, that’s why we only do it when it’s a potential best-seller

Still mad at Unreal Engine 5 for using visual scripting instead of a high level scripting language

Not laughing at your own joke is only a requirement for dry humour. I guess some people only like dry humour so they generalise this but most people like all kinds of jokes

I will reiterate and ask you to touch grass

If they really expect the average white collar worker to learn Linux they probably should touch some grass

It can play a role but there are so many other factors. Some people turn to theism to cope with hardships which means they are less unhappy thanks to it. But on the other hand there are people who live a restricted frustrating childhood in a religious family and finally experience freedom with atheism.

It’s more interesting to ask ourselves what precisely religion brings to the table, the negative and the positive, so we can answer difficult political questions in relation to religions
