I have been reading HN for a while and never commented, but the translation thing is very close to my heart, what with learning Physics both in Polish and English at different stages of my life.
So much so that I've made a dedicated tool for this: https://wikitranslator.github.io/ https://wikitranslator.github.io/
It uses Wikipedia's APIs to "click the language links" for you. It also displays short summaries of both languages' articles, so the translation can be verified. I know I'm a small sample, but I end up using it reasonably often.
- dang 6y agoYou should make a Show HN out of that! Just wait a while (perhaps a couple weeks) for the hivemind caches to clear. See the tips at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22336638 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22336638, especially the one about adding a comment explaining how you came to work on this and what's different about it. If you do submit it, email us at hn@ycombinator.com and we might be able to help further. And welcome to the state change of HN-commenting!
