Calendarium Latinum Twitter bot by Fergus Walsh.
A bot that tweets the day of the week, date and year everyday in Latin.
Days of the week follow the pagan names: dies Lunae, dies Martis etc. (see Isidore of Seville "Etymologiae" V.30). The date is given in the ancient Roman method, reconded from the Kalends, Nones and Ides of each month. The year is given "from the foundation of the city" fixed by convention of Varro to 753 B.C.
The calendar used is the Gregorian calendar, not the Julian or 10-month Republican calendar.
The code is hosted and run from pythonanywhere.com

Automatum Twitter "Calendarium Latinum" a Fergo Monemutensi factum.
Automatum quod praeconatur diem hebdomadalem, diem mensis et annum cottidie et Latine.
Dies hebdomadalis dantur secundum gentilicios mores: dies Lunae, dies Martis et cet. (vide Isidorum Hispalensem "Etymologiarum" lib. V cap. 30). Dies datur modo antiquo, a Kalendis, Nonis vel Idibus nominatus. Annus datur "ab urbe condita", qui a Varrone traditur esse 753 ante Christum natum.
Calendarium est Gregorianum, non Iulianum nec antiquissimum.
