Like you, I think the current architecture is a good landing spot. But at the same time, what I think is… The act of pressing the translate button means that a user trigger is required. It requires the will to say, "Alright, I'm going to read this post!" I believe there is an…

Translating everything is not an option for now. The inference costs for translations come from my own pocket, so does Tom’s inference. That’s why we chose this route + TTL on cached translations (because storage comes out of @nunomaduro’s pocket, lol)

Mathieu Céraline @mathcrlnnow

Agreed, hadn't thought of it that way but you are right! Personnally, loving "cross languages/cross cultures" stuff, seeing something in a language other than mine, especially japanese, chinese, arabic, etc is bound to call my attention even more than something in one of the…

What we were comparing it to was ambiguous, wasn't it? We were comparing it to an architecture where only the original text is saved, and it's translated and displayed each time the user presses the translate button. If you move the translation processing to the browser or client…

Oh, yes it was indeed confusing, but now that I understand, I completely agree! Personally I think the current strategy makes the most sense. Inherently translation is something that should be stored since it’s likely to always be the same + many users are likely to need it…

Nice. I'm really looking forward to seeing what kind of system this will lead to! 😉

You can keep translation costs down, right? Storage costs go up, and there will be more language-difference checks and extra loading queries, but translation using an AI model is the most expensive, so this feels like a reasonable compromise. Good sense of balance.

Out of curiosity, how does doing it like that affect storage costs? If anything, it keeps it down by not storing transalations when not needed, no?

I looked closely at the Remotes screen and it made sense 👍 I see, this is indeed a remote. I got a mental image of messages (= PRs) flying around!

So DMs are Remotes! Thanks for letting me know!! Huh? But wait. Is that intuitive? Is it like forked repositories interacting with each other??
