aaronpk I'm following some people who post in a variety of languages and now I am thinking about building a translation feature into monocle now
#
cweiske (or a filter to remove unsupported languages)
#
aaronpk Nah I wanna know what they're saying
#
aaronpk pretty sure I want it to work like Twitter, where there's a little "translate" button I can tap and then it adds the translated text below the original

#
[jgmac1106] yeah I wish Firefox asked to translate automatically like Chrome
#
[jgmac1106] when I see a post in other languages, I copy url, move to Chrome, translate and read
#
KartikPrabhu [jgmac1106] you can translate in FF using add-ons
#
[jgmac1106] ooh good point, will install

[generativist] [KevinMarks] Jason (pushshift.io) does really cool stuff
#
[generativist] This part was really useful for me in a number of contexts: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xVrPoNutyqTdQ04DXBEZW4ZW4A5RAQW2he7qIpTmG-M/edit
#
[generativist] Ignoring scraping potentials, it makes it seem (but I have not verified) that you can infer rough geographies of the poster based on which datacenter/rack the tweet got routed to
#
[generativist] (I wanted to use it to do some "was this really $politicalActorX?" stuff but havent yet)
#
[generativist] Summarizing: Twitter bit packs [time, datacenter, rack, sequenceNumber] in each 64 tweet (Snowflake) ids
