Meta: I'm really happy that there is a non-english article on the front page of HN. Can we make this happen wore often?
- AussieWog93 5y agoPlease can we not? And if we do, can can we make sure the title is at least in the same language as the article?
- loktarogar 5y ago> -But is the earth pale? > "Yes. Isn't everything folded for some money? It's all about crowns and auras when you get up, isn't it? " It's the kind of article that makes me want to read it, but It's just really not a quality article for anyone but native speakers (or folks with better translations than Google)
- holoduke 5y agoWhy the hell would you want to have non English articles? You also want us to discuss in Icelandic?
- bigoldie 5y agoI think those are both different things. Reading is something only a person does, a discussion has to be in a language everybody can speak. I think it shouldn't be a problem to have non English articles, as long as it's a good translation is provided in the post.
- periheli0n 5y agoI tend to agree. HN is pretty much a global community and having this show in the selection of articles is a good thing IMO. Automatic translation might still have to improve though.
- Smithalicious 5y agoI agree, if they're particularly interesting. There's a whole wealth of information out there that's not available in English, and machine translation tools are good enough to mostly make sense of most things nowadays.
