This is very close to a problem I have also been working on. I built Kevilex for Ancient Greek readers: https://kevilex.com

It also provides one-click definitions and grammar analysis. The main difference from this project is that it remembers your vocabulary across texts. You can mark words as new, learning, or known. It then recommends texts based on the vocabulary you already know.

It also includes flashcard review, sentence explanations, text import, and an Old English library.

Thanks for the feedback! How would you see yourself using an API if there was one?

Similarly, he gets the Turing Test wrong. He seems to think that all you have to do to pass the Turing Test is to convince a single person that you are a person.

The whole article is an argument from personal incredulity. http://www.theskepticsguide.org/resources/logicalfallacies.a...
Contrary to its title, this article does not say that the government will require in-school repayment of student loans. It only says the gov't will offer a tax credit if the student opts to do so.

This article was such a rambling mess. I read the whole thing but learned nearly nothing from it except that Crichton didn't believe in anthropogenic global warming.
I can't think of an article I've read recently that I disagree with more. This is a good law that protects potential employees from being used by cheapskates like the author of this article who want to get slave labor from their employees. Free internships hurt those looking for jobs because they have to compete with free when they need money to pay the bills.
