I tried something like that GPT trick and it is pretty hard to get it to not over-correct and over-index the vocabulary words.

For instance if I tell it that "OneTake AI" (my company) or "OneTake Chat" (one of our features) belong to the vocabulary words, it will twist correctly-transcribed sentences to make it appear in there.

> Here is the biggest opportunity in artificial intelligence today if you're using Chat in your app

(which is already grammatically correct!)

would suddenly become

> Here is the biggest opportunity in OneTake AI today if you're using OneTake Chat in your app

This sycophantism of the LLM causes more trouble than it fixes. It's even worse if the vocabulary provided includes names, because then the model will randomly twist some sentences (mostly the benefit-driven ones, e.g. "so you can get faster results today") to add "... thanks to EXPERT_NAME!"

It is also very difficult to get the model to edit structured text (like a JSON of the transcription) without breaking the schema or the IDs.

I am still iterating to find a better method, and I think the "Functions" API can also help.

No, that's just the theory of CBT but there are other theories. Studies apparently shows that several psychotherapy types such as CBT are roughly equally effective despite having different underlying theory.
What I'm more surprised, is that since most of the decoding and stuff is done on the GPU anyways, and the GPU has to be HDCP compliant, why can't they just directly send the stream to the GPU as is, tell it where to display it, and be done with it.
It's true we've made this easy, and that's awesome, but this is not what AI startups do; this is what other companies experimenting with AI do.

> I haven't actively used Windows since 2008. It's such an obnoxious OS to use

You might want to modernize your perception of it, holding on to 15 year old views is not a very smart move in the tech industry.

Windows 10 and 11 are a joy to use, and to develop. I used a Mac for 15 years and switched to Windows to develop 5 years ago, and now macOS looks extremely antiquated and creaky for development.
Hey! I'm Nuno a co-founder at Decipad.

Appreciate the input. We actually have two former founders of similar products working in our team. Would love to know what you think of Decipad after using it.
Grid is a terrific company. None of the "competitors" in the space made it, but surely one will. Hopefully many of them, us included. I agree -- it's really hard to build a product that defines a new category. But that's what motivates us.

Let me know if you do try it, would be super curious to see the feedback.
For those who are wondering:

This article is about (automatic) speech recogniton, also known by its acronym ASR or as speech-to-text (STT).

It has nothing to do with automatic speaker identification, which in turn is also different from speaker diarization. The latter refers to the process of automatically identifying from a group of copresent speakers who is the one speaking at any point in time without caring about the actual identity of that person.
Very valuable feedback, thank you. Coil whine would drive me bananas. Username checks out.
With industrial camera it is probably the device where multiple cameras connect to. With industrial solutions you often want a gateway that is edge device between the internal and external network.

At least that is my current IIoT definition. You could have bunch of pretty dump sensors and then somewhat beefy these days gateway. And the gateway here could do some computation.

That looks right. Here's the start of the fridge section in the 1950 Sears spring/summer catalog to give an idea of what it was like then [1]. Here's the start of the freezer section [2].

You're adding important context but I would like to clarify something to highlight just how complex climate change really is. I also am going to make a few related comments, as I do most of my research on melt in Greenland. Full disclosure: I do know some of the people in this article but I have never been to eGRIP specifically. I will be in Greenland in a week nearby though.

No matter what the far future holds, the near future holds more violent storms as storms are powered by the temperature differentials of the air, land, and sea.

This is true, sort of. There's a lot nuance needed for this broad statement. In particular, "Arctic amplification" means that the pole-to-equator temperature gradient is actually weakening. If you were inclined to believe the covid lab leak theory you would also be inclined to jump on this and say "then the extreme storms are nonsense". However, what's really happening is that the waves in the upper atmosphere ("Rossby waves") are getting more wave-y. Which is really saying that additional energy from CO2 warming is resulting in stronger transport and more significant variability. It's not resulting in larger gradients. Although sometimes the gradients are also extreme.

Climate is a question of two things, time scales and spatial scales. Dumping a bunch of CO2 in the atmosphere messes with both.

I also want to point out that this isn't the first time a core has been dug to the bed of the Greenland ice sheet. It's also not the second. Some comments seem to be implying this. I have a bad taste for science reporting/announcements like this that fail to provide context. Of course this is important work but it's following up and improving on several previous deep core drilling experiments. We still have many samples from these previous cores. This is still a very good thing to research and will hopefully provide important new insight. But there is significant previous work it builds on [1]. And the title kind is vague enough that outsiders/the public might not understand that.

Also also, to be a little vitriolic, the IPCC Matlab code is a crime against humanity and fuck Mathworks.

Even for mostly static, edge can add a cache layer, and also do doughnut rendering for sites...

By doughnut rendering, I mean you can displace certain static placeholders with user-level content... such as replacing the "login" section of the header with the markup for the User's name and profile image.

These are both common use cases for Cloudflare Workers. Not just for complex compute but for near-line cache and simple transforms.
Market cap is not market depth, you can't withdraw $223B from a speculative asset with a $223B market cap. Just look at SafeMoon lol. Market cap isn't a bank account. It's determined at the margin by the last transaction price multiplied by the number of units outstanding. Bringing it up in this context is just misleading.
> not going to be cheap

Sure, that was part of the point I was making (get the part¹, not the 3rd party build). I thought you had an idea of the range: the B/W original costs 1,748 USD (links are in the page), this one has a few reasons to cost more...

I love https://ntfy.sh/ for my services running on headless servers - it lets me ping my phone with messages of varying urgency, and even duplicate the notifications to email for particularly information-dense messages.
I spent a week moonlighting on a project that needed some help. We were both competent devs and just trying to make enough shiny and functional for a working demo. I did all my front end coding in vanilla JS with a little typescript parser he made (my first exposure to TS).

Readers, it was so AWESOME to write spaghetti JS in one file. Do a little manual code organization. Name things sensibly. Write comments. Communicate.

Everything we did could be shimmed into a react app fairly quickly, but why? Our goal was to get something out the door that performed an intuitive feature-set and we did it. We didn't have to fiddle with dependencies, or start thinking in 'library mode' when you search NPM for something instead of just coding it yourself. Just make the thing that works. If you suddenly have to scale your team and need to refactor to a common framework in order to support dev onboarding, that is an incredibly fortunate position to be in and a good problem to have.
> It is very clear what the facts are socially when the State media declares them via TV, newspaper and authority figures.

And that left little room for dissenting opinions. Dissenting voices could be silenced easily, without fanfare and awareness by society at large. Now, it's not so easy.

> Right now you can ignore any facts I bring up

Indeed.

> before that behaviour would have been ostracized socially

It's still ostracized, even online. Remember "cancel culture"? That's a characteristic of the digital age. Before the Internet, people were finding their niches regardless. They would do it in secret - in barns, basements, or whatever.

As lousy as Plex (both the company and the product) have become, there really aren't alternatives with feature-parity available. Jellyfin is starting to get there in terms of basic media center functionality, but still faces stability and platform compatibility issues that have been long-solved by Plex. Jellyfin also lags behind in ecosystem support/integration for those of us operating media servers with heavy amounts of automation and dependencies on workflows executed by 3rd party packages.
I'm quite sure Meta would never break the law on purpose.
I'm pretty sure that on the multiple fronts where they are breaking the law, it can easily be explained by some sort of misunderstanding.
And the fact that they are benefiting a lot in those cases must be just a giant coincidence.
Really you have no idea? Maybe because it's off topic?
Sytest is designed to test any Matrix server. The only reason it’s called Sytest is because that Matrix was briefly originally called Synapse (before we came up with the much better name Matrix, and chose to keep Synapse around for the first implementation).
> Isn't this already the case in America with Section 230?

IMO, Section 230 is too relaxed for large scale social media, but not relaxed enough for some other applications. It basically allowed big tech to mod the public square like modding a game, for it to be much larger, to move people around into biased groups, and to keep a record of all conversations, and train autocomplete bots on them..

I do not want more restrictions on existing apps. My point was that I wanted every local community to have their own online forum that's only accessible locally (through a RSA cert that rotates monthly, perhaps). They can even build minigames and cute events for themselves, and that would boost local morals and economy.

I think your thoughts on real online identities are interesting but I do not believe in either Censorship or total free speech. It's like the halting problem: I don't think there is a fixed list of rules that can always tell you the correct answer (To censor or not).

That's also why it's important for local communities to make their own decisions.
Exactly. People often get lost in this "we must save the planet" argument, but realistically, the planet is gonna be fine.

Preventing climate change is about saving humanity, not the planet.
it's calling attention to douchey pricing patterns. Given that a lot of people here doing their startups/projects and thinking about pricing, seems like worth mentioning.
Well-regulated capitalism, with strong anti-trust regulations and enforcemet.

The idea of a "free market" is an absolute fallacy.

Every market has some set of rules and regulations. At the definitional level, it is irrelevant whether the regs are written, spoken, or tacitly understood, or whether they are enforced by law or self-imposed limits. Without regulation, no market lasts.

The question is what regulations exist and how they are enforced.

With very little regulation, markets coalesce to monopolies; the strong/wealthy get stronger & wealthier, and buy out or force out the smaller players. Even without explicit collusion among large players, they have the ability to sustain predatory practices to kill upstarts or buy out any promising ones. With collusion, they can enforce predatory low quality and high pricing on entire nations.

Which is what we see here. The barriers to entry are high and the competition is so little that the entire appliance market has been massively enshittified — there is literally only crap available (unless you want to go full professional restaurant or hotel equipment). Even multiple different brands are literally made to the same specs in the same factories. I don't recall the details, but this was the case over a decade ago when we last looked for appliances, when it was bad enough that we found a couple new-old-stock from a previous mfg year of some units we knew were good. And I repair them when they need maintenance b/c it's only worse.

This is only one of many industries, and tech is even worse, where incumbent positions and insane piles of capital effectively kill off any upstarts.

Anti-trust needs to be a LOT stronger, more clear, and rapidly enforced.

To be clear, nothing has changed with Wolfi. Wolfi is an open source community project and everything is still available there: https://github.com/wolfi-dev/.

We have made changes to Chainguard Images - our commercial product built on top of Wolfi - which mean you can no longer pull images by tag (other than latest). Chainguard images are rebuilt everyday and have a not inconsiderable maintenance cost (and the money we make here directly helps us support Wolfi).

The easiest way to avoid this is to build the images yourself. You can rebuild identical images to ours using apko and the source files in the images repo e.g: https://github.com/chainguard-images/images/blob/main/images... (note you can replace package names with versioned versions). You can also just use a Dockerfile with the wolfi-base image to "apk add" packages. Full details are here: https://www.chainguard.dev/unchained/a-guide-on-how-to-use-c...

I agree that pinning is a best practice. The above blog explains that you can still do it using a digest, but I accept this isn't the simplest solution.

I'm really glad I stumbled on your comment. I train people in conflict resolution and emotional leadership and I've been looking for places to learn more about conflicts and causes and I think these NTSB reports could provide me a lot of examples from which to learn. They remind me of how at college I had a class on business communication and we discussed the communication issues that led to the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster.

Thank you for recommending the NTSB reports :-)
I'm not convinced that Hollywood really competes with TikTok. Going out for a movie date sounds a lot more interesting than "let's go flop on the couch and watch TikTok/YouTube all evening."
If you want to feel happier about that time in my life a bit in the pre-Tony-has-Internet era, I basically learned to program using a Vic-20 and books available from the public library that was just down the block from my house. Once we had a slightly better computer (a Compaq XT-clone) and I was getting bored of BASIC, a guy at a local computer shop sold me a copy of Power C with the absolutely fabulous book that came with it for $20: http://www.mixsoftware.com/product/powerc.htm. From there, we had an amazing upgrade from the XT to a Pentium 133 and dial-up Internet, which got me into Slackware Linux, downloaded one 1.44MB chunk at a time until I had enough of the A- and N-series packages to bootstrap PPP and download the X-series of packages to get a GUI and a browser.

Hardware-wise I feel like there's a lot more very affordable kit that kids like me could use to get their feet wet, but software- and learning-material-wise, I'm not sure if there's anything quite as good as some of that old stuff. These books, for instance, were abundant at the public library and really got me going: https://usborne.com/ca_en/books/computer-and-coding-books

> Apple isn't selling any laptops" wasn't what was said

The parent poster said

> would never buy an Apple laptop and no one I know has one either

What relevance then was there in the statement that the original poster made?

> Apple dominates the laptop market, which is a pretty ridiculous claim since x86 is still the vast majority of laptop sales and Windows is still the dominant laptop OS.

Nor did I argue otherwise. I merely called out the silliness of the statement that because the parent poster “doesn’t know anyone who owns one” or that because every developer he knows uses a Windows laptop, that his anecdotal experience has any relevance.
eeeeh.

Shiori looks like it'd work infinitely better compared to floccus. It has an extension, tags, and everything is stored in a central repository you can visit from web (or server itself) any time you want. It also archives your bookmarks.

I don't disagree with any of that. My point is that I know sufficient SQL to do "stuff" in a database, and I don't have to go looking up documentation for \d when I'm using MySQL.

SHOW DATABASES, SHOW TABLES is intuitive. \d (and being a unix guy, using \ rather than / is ... weird) is definitely not intuitive.

Don't get me wrong, I've used Postgres when someone else has installed it for a project - it's a fine and capable database, and if I used it daily I'd probably get used to its syntax. It doesn't, however, seem to go out of its way to make things easier, IMHO. If you're going to have \dx as shortcuts for the typing-shy, then I don't see why you can't provide the more long-winded ones that don't require a manual lookup as well...

I'm going to choose something that makes my life easier, when the line between one or the other choice is so fine - and MySQL is just ... easier.
Spotify invests most of their dev time into finding more ways to advertise, interrupt, and be annoying to their free and paid users. There's little innovation going on there. Like Hulu/Disney+,Netflix - Spotify makes piracy fun again.

The difficulty is in having precise playback time. If you're a few dozen milliseconds off the music will be terrible.

Perhaps make it so every phone/computer device with spotify connected can control its one set of speakers either cabled or bluetooth. User selects "Group Speakers". It plays a fun tone where the app listens for the delay between the audio going out and the audio being received, finding the playback latency. Now that the devices know their playback latency they can communicate and play at the same time. As users do this with things like bluetooth speakers you collect that data and make it automatic for future speakers of that type. If it's out of sync just have a "sync" button to do it manually. People will figure it out.
Not all natural disasters can be pinned into global warming (earthquakes for example), also some weather related disasters are caused by cyclical patterns (e.g. El Niño), but certainly the higher frequency (and potency) of some weather related disasters are already linked to human influence: https://news.un.org/en/story/2021/09/1098662

Is not doomsday as the world won't change overnight, but some areas of the globe will suffer a lot from the higher intensity of the weather and this will probably create a lot of global challenges and might bring (mostly) overcome tragedies, like widespread famine, back to the news
Like the author I have been using a static site generator for my personal website. It hasn’t had a new commit for 6 years and I’m not entirely sure I have the code to reconstruct my site. But the best feature it has was s3 deployment into a bucket and the hardest part for me was getting DNS working and pointing it to the S3 bucket. It can deploy directly to S3 with a really old graphical UI for a Mac but as long as you have it the right access token it would work. If you really want to get past the issues that the author faces I would look into using S3 to deploy .
