  1. Got another "translation job" offer today.

    Except it wasn't a translation job at all.

    It was training AI.

    For pay that, where I live, wouldn't even reach minimum wage. But of course it was dressed up as "freelance contracting," because apparently exploitation sounds fancier if you invoice for it.

    No.

    I'm not helping build the machine that's already taking work away from translators while paying translators less than they deserve to teach it.
    I'd genuinely rather earn nothing than spend my time feeding your slop machine.

    Hard pass.

  11. Drawing a sketch to be used as an illustration for a blog post was a fun experience. it is better than searching for stock image or (Veles forbid this) use an AI slop generator.
    And, in reality... It takes not much more time. Quite comparable.
    How it looks you can see here: legends.house/technical-questi
    Not sure why I did not tried this approach before. Maybe because I expected it would look awful.
    BTW, my wife said it look great, and it was quite validating.

  13. 1. Used the #3GoodThings hashtag here:

    mastodon.social/@courtcan/1156

    ...so I guess I'd better share 2 further #GoodThings.

    2. I completed a #MedievalCats #drawing (ink and metallic gold pencil; see attached image) for my friend's birthday. She was delighted.

    3. I made two phone calls that I've been putting off (because they're PHONE CALLS) for 5 weeks and 1 week, respectively.
