Aside: it's been a while since I've used google's translation service. If I hadn't seen "translate.google.com" in the HN headline I think I'd have assumed that this was written originally in English. There are a couple of non-idiomatic translations that I would've attributed to "probably written by a non-native speaker." I've never used translate.google.com for Portuguese before, so it's possible that they do better on this language than others. But in any case, it's worth some praise for a superior service. Well done, GOOG.
