These machines have no common sense; they have not yet learned to 'think,' and they do exactly as they are told, no more and no less. This fact is the hardest concept to grasp when one first tries to use a computer. |

My Amazon Wish List
I love to read science books. They make my day and I get ideas for awesome blog posts, such as Busy Beaver, On Functors, Recursive Regular Expressions and many others.
Take a look at my 
Amazon wish list, if you're curious about what I have planned reading next, and want to surprise me. :)

Great Work. We've already created unreleased patches to Virtaal our desktop translation tool.
One issue is that the list of languages is hard coded. I realise that's because Google doesn't supply them. But it would be nice to just query Google and get that list at startup.
I'd love a way to query the translate.py classes to find out if a source or target language is supported. Currently I just get a TranslationError would be nicer if it raised a more fine grained Exception so that our code can then decide not to support that target language.
