It’s not just you: We all need subtitles now.

Google introduces MusicLM, a model that generates music from text. The examples are pretty-mind blowing and raise big questions about licensing and copyrights for non-AI creators.

Taking the uncanny valley to a new low? Nvidia’s streaming software now includes a feature that deepfakes eye contact.

Beware the potentially dangerous intersection of AI and stan Twitter.

Thanks to Siavash Kayal, a fan of the show and data engineer at Cleo, who sent along a great list of open-source data engineering projects folks can work on.

Today we’re shouting out Stellar Question badge winner Paragon for asking how to Open two instances of a file in a single Visual Studio session.

We're talking about Let the Right One In on this episode of the Fan2Fan Podcast!

Bernie, Michele, and Pete discuss the critically acclaimed 2008 Swedish film. They go over the movie's themes of friendship, loneliness, and bullying. They review how the film uses vampire myths and lore. They also discuss how the movie differs from the book and the 2010 remake.

Vocabulary: 

To tag along: 

go along with, often uninvited; "my younger brother often tagged along when I went out with my friends" accompany - go or travel along... (see The Free Dictionary.) 

To settle down:

to begin to live a quiet and steady life by getting a regular job, getting married, etc.  (see merriam-webster)

Upbringing:

early trainingespecially : a particular way of bringing up a child

Burgeois: a middle-class person, 

weed: (1) tobacco products

Those that still live are now people in their seventies or eighties, and probably someone’s grandparents. Some will have adapted to a more conservative lifestyle. Others not so much.

My parents are that kind. They met in 67 and spent a few years traveling and living experiences… with little me tagging along, until I had to be schooled and they settled down. They were not as ideologically motivated as other hippies were, but they wanted to feel free from their conservative upbringing.

That’s us in Ibiza, around ‘71 I think.

After that we lived in Paris for a few years before moving to Spain. Times changed and new things were happening, being a hippie wasn’t as cool anymore, maybe their life became a bit more bourgeois, but they’ve always been (and still are) unconventional people in many ways.

Now they’re old and they have three grandchildren (my sister’s kids). They live quite simply on the pension they have left, maybe my father sells a painting, or my mother gets a modelling gig being the granny in a commercial, but they don’t need much as long as they’re happy and healthy.

Well, ma likes her little bag of weed, but it’s medicinal ok?

In this episode we dive into the use of interactive video and the role of captions in language learning. What value is there in including videos in our teaching? How do interactive videos help content retention in learners? How do captions support literacy for language learners? Join us as we discuss these questions and talk through some tools to enhance your teaching!

Tim & Brent cover Padlet, a popular virtual bulletin board program that allows students to quickly and easily interact and share ideas in a collaborative space. Then they talk about the ins and outs of building a Captioning Program that has a fast turnaround and is compliant with accessibility laws. Please feel free to share if your school is trying to build such a program.

Moving beyond the US border we speak with two describers. Rebecca Singh & Elaine Lillian Joseph. We hear how they came to description, the importance of centering Blind people in the process and more on guidelines for describing race, color or ethnicity.

Greg interviews Palm, a professional translator of English to Thai, but in a very specific context: subtitles for film and television. Palm begins by explaining that she literally learned English by being a couch potato and watching a lot of Western TV shows and movies, surviving by figuring out the subtitles word by word. This led naturally to an interest in doing it for a living, and lo and behold, her dream came to when she got a job translating for MTV Thailand. Eventually, this led to translating for a major video distribution company (which shall remain anonymous). 

Greg quizzes Palm on the difficulties of her job and how she can possibly find Thai equivalents for all the weird expressions and slang in English. Palm notes that this in fact makes her job fun, as she often has to do research to first make sure she has the proper understanding in her own head before she can determine the best Thai equivalent. Unsurprisingly, curse words are quite difficult, and Greg and Palm discuss some rude expressions and how Palm approaches translating them. 

They also discuss the difference between simply translating a word, and translating intentions, concepts, and context. Apply this to, say, hip-hop culture, or RuPaul’s show “Drag Race”, and you can see where it becomes difficult! 

Palm concludes with some advice for wannabe subtitlers, so listen in for some excellent career guidance if you are so inclined.

For the 97th time, the Next 100 Project has an entry...and we're back in God-silenced Sweden to talk about an Ingmar Bergman classic. This "interesting" women-centric picture focuses on cancer, pain, emotional distance and even forgiveness. Not a joyful experience is this one, but it's still a must-see for files of the cine.
