It's looking like I've got several projects that need language detection as part of the workflow. It's been a few years since I've used that and I assume there's been some (possibly vast?) improvements. Anyone have a favorite library / model / etc they'd recommend? #MultilingualDH

¡Hay que joderse!

Respuesta de la IA de google a mi búsqueda:

"La obra que buscas no es "La vida del pícaro", sino La vida de Lázaro de Tormes y de sus fortunas y adversidades, una novela anónima publicada por primera vez en 1554, no en 1601, que es considerada el origen de la novela picaresca moderna y narra las aventuras de un pícaro desde una perspectiva amarga y moralmente crítica de la sociedad española de la época."

Love that my sister still calls me on the phone to check on a fact about US currency or anything else, rather than checking on the Internet or one of those chats

¡BRUTAL! Sí a todas las adaptaciones. Al cine, al teatro (grabado, por favor), a serie limitada... juro que entonces me suscribo desde el extranjero a las plataformas digitales.

Y por lo menos tomen nota de estas fabulosas obras de literatura.

Ernesto Filardi 🍉 @hachefilardi.bsky.social · 15d

Un like, una obra de literatura clásica española que me repatea que no tenga una adaptación audiovisual reciente.

*Sí, esto puede ser un hilo infinito porque aparte de haber muchísimas obras no hay casi ninguna adaptación reciente.

3. Los Episodios Nacionales, de Galdós. Podría haber hecho trampa y usar las 40 novelas para 40 mariposts diferentes. Pero es que es LA GRAN ÉPICA ESPAÑOLA DEL SIGLO XIX CONTANDO CASI EL SIGLO ENTERO Y ES QUE POR NO SABER NO NOS SABEMOS NI LOS TÍTULOS DE LOS LIBROS NI CONOCEMOS A GABRIEL ARACELI.
