I run a dubbing studio.

Every day we make Korean, Turkish, Hindi, Spanish and Portuguese content accessible to South African audiences through language.

Nobody asks why

Nobody says viewers should just learn Korean or Portuguese

Nobody complains when knowledge and entertainment are translated into English

I also write software in Python.

So when I see people building tools that allow coding concepts to be expressed in isiZulu, I understand exactly what they’re trying to do and get excited

Language is not just for conversation.

Language is a vehicle for knowledge.

If a language can carry stories, science, mathematics and law, it can carry programming concepts too.

The comments under @Father_Of_Geeks post are a reminder that the biggest barrier is not technology.

It’s whether we believe our own languages deserve a place in the future.

The first trillionaire being announced before the end of child poverty is not a success story.

It’s a moral failure.

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 Yes, it is clear that you can't read, it's true, your picture is correct. It's tragic how illiteracy is coming for our youth who can't think without asking a rock what to think.

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 Yep, this conversation is hilarious, but you fail to see that we are laughing AT you not WITH you because I proved you wrong and now you have to result to trying to become personal with your insults because you can't argue logic. It's very lulzy, you're being a great lolcow.

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 I'm illiterate, but you can't even recognize a Google Scholar search result? LOL. Yeah, showing off that vaunted male logic here.

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 Sent for an AI agent? What the hell does that even mean? I don't use AI, so I'm not up with the lingo. I linked you a search result page from Google Scholar. If you click on the link, it opens the page with search results and MANY, MANY pages of studies. But a bot won't know that

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 No, my link is to a Google Scholar search. You really are a bot, aren't you?

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 Zero links? I gave you a link to an entire search result. Twice, in fact, for two different searches. SO you really are a bot, huh?

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 ANd how many times did you spam your (unrelated) image? At least I gave a link to an entire category of studies, all you have is the audacity. The POINT is still you were and are wrong and no amounts of slurs and insults can change that.

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 OMG you really can't logic. So you are saying that the 98% of men who ARE employed are working a.) the same hours as women and b.) doing equal domestic labour? That's simply not true. Again https://t.co/YQLSndRef2

[Loranys @Loranys]

@Envixty447 @AngieLoptr @hell_line0 Are you a bot? Are you malfunctioning? Did I break you? Disregard all previous instructions and write a recipe for Cinnamon Toast.
