@Bopuc Step one is to clean up the HTML, make it structurally meaningful. Then, bind place/time/character data into that (microformats or whatever) (twitter.com/_/status/760858368617480194)

@cmal_PP @alct Je serai ravi de contribuer des bouts de code (pour ajouter du microformats2 un peu partout par exemple) quand j'aurai du temps :-) (twitter.com/_/status/760891514419576836)

tantek Loqi, translate
#
aaronpk if only there was a language marker in the tweet so loqi knew what language to translate from
#
gRegorLove Loqi could plug it into google translate and "I'm feeling lucky" :)
#
tantek new Loqi feature, detect "Loqi, translate" where the word "translate" is autodetected in whatever language it is said in as the language to translate *to*, and then Loqi calls Google translate to translate from (auto-detect language) to "what language the word 'translate' was in"
#
tantek aaronpk 😂
#
aaronpk google does a pretty good job of detecting the language
#
tantek the from yes
#
aaronpk doesn't work on super short phrases or proper nouns but what can you expect
#
tantek the point is, Loqi could just have a list of how to say "translate" in many destination languages, and then just respond to each of them accordingly
#
aaronpk it's looking like Loqi needs some short-term memory of things recently said in the channel
#
aaronpk considering caching the last thing spoken by each person so he can look stuff like that up
#
bear one of my favourite bot features I had back in the day was a small cache of items from each speaker
#
bear so relative terms could have context
