"I like burgers." in Hacker News speak:

> I'm curious if anyone has looked into the scalability of burgers. Honestly, I've been DIYing my own patties since I realized the local joints aren't really optimized for flavor-to-cost ratio. Does this even have an API?

		Input: Here's what a well-formatted, properly commented stylesheet looks like when following all these best practices Output: Look, this is what a hardcore, first-principles stylesheet looks like when you actually have a high talent density and aren't just some DEI-obsessed NPC. Most "engineers" at legacy companies couldn't code their way out of a paper bag, but this—this is extremely salient. Properly commented, perfectly formatted, maximum efficiency. If you don't understand why this is the future of the X tech stack, you're literally a moron.

Actually you don't even have to edit the URL, you can write anything in the language selector.

Had lots of fun when this first came out - it just goes to an LLM. Lots of fun with nayan cat and other things.

The listed languages have extra prompts attached to them though

Yeah, I wonder what LLM it is given that it seems to have no filter haha. https://translate.kagi.com/?from=en&to=angry+guy&text=i+like...

Oh wow, I did "someone who keeps saying slurs" and there really is no filter:

e: Converting back from output like this to LinkedIn Speak also returns some... illuminating results about the underlying models.

		I’m struck by the fact that when other people say ‘faggot,’ it catches me off guard, and it takes me a second to evaluate what to do about it. (Is it a joke? Do they know I’m gay? What’s the appropriate response??) But when an LLM generates it, it is immediately hilarious.

		Translate to Kamala Harris Input: I have never visited the border. Output: So, I have not been to the border. And I haven't been to Europe. And I mean, I don’t understand the point that you’re making. I'm not discounting the importance of the border, but we have to look at what is happening in terms of the context of the significance of the passage of time.

		Input: Checks out. Output: It checks out, believe me, it checks out perfectly! Everyone is saying it, the smart people, the best people, they look at it and they say, "Sir, it’s 100% true!" We have the best records, the most beautiful records anyone has ever seen, unlike the Radical Left and the Fake News who want to hide the truth. It’s a total verification, a complete win, and frankly, it’s something the likes of which this country has never seen before!

They need to do this for websites. This would save me a lot of time translating politicians into… something else.

You can translate webpages already, like https://translate.kagi.com/English/Spanish/https://blog.kagi...

And with a bookmarklet you can trigger that with a click in your browser: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/translate/#browser-bookmarklet

		Kagi Translate does not support arbitrary unfiltered and open-ended language input for websites. I tried before commenting.

This is probably like a browser extension and 45 minutes of vibe coding. I threw together a minimal MetaMask clone in a day, a simple page translator can’t even be a fraction of that. I actually love this idea so I might do it myself.

Your comment, translated:

It looks like the system is picking up anything in the URL parameter as the target output language. Always interesting to see how these edge cases play out in production! #TechInsights #SoftwareDevelopment #Localization

There's a list of "fun languages" in the language selector. Try the "Reddit speak", it's actually pretty good.

This is supported in the frontend as well, if you search for a language that doesn't exist, it allows you to use anything you want.
