Show HN: Speech Meter – Improve Your English Pronunciation
Hey HN!

We built Speech Meter as a tool to practice and improve English pronunciation. It uses AI to analyze your accent and score your pronunciation accuracy. It’s great for anyone who wants to practice their pronunciation in English. I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions for improvements. I really appreciate any feedback you could have (:
Is that "subscribers" section at the beginning basically a patreon shoutout?

Also the Bohemian looks quite badly transcribed from speech, words are improperly split and some letters are missing. Which is understandable because https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czech_National_Revival was only just beginning at the time and grammar and orthography were in a bad shape.
>Something I remember is that MP3 spends a disproportionate amount of storage in order to encode frequencies > 16 Khz. This may explain why in some tests, it performs worse in mid-high bitrates (160/192 Kbps), although I don't know the technical details.

I wonder if just straight out filtering them would result in better 160Kbps MP3s, it's not like most people can hear them...

It is so interesting the affects covid can have - when I most recently got covid I had a really bad joint pain flare up in my right hand and right ankle - like arthritis - it took about 6 weeks to pass, but to me it felt very linked to the covid infection.

I may not have been, but it is the first time I've had symptoms like this.
How is that different from a password? PIN stands for Personal Identification Number. Words change meaning all the time, of course, but in this case there’s no reason to call it a PIN when there’s already another word for it.
In general, there's a lot of information that has been considered public as a matter of law (often for good reasons) for a long time. Making this information available on the web rather than in some dusty county clerk's office arguably changed things. But we've mostly shrugged and let the information remain public even if it's just a click away (or at least a nominal background check payment away).

Likely because your codebase had UB in it that didn't show itself until a certain optimization level. The solution is to fix all instances of UB. See my comment above.
FYI: Valve had macOS binaries and scripts for CS2 since the Limited Test. They were constantly updating the depot with macOS files and when it finally released to the public, a few weeks ago, they decided to sack macOS support.

Can't totally blame them for their decision but the developers that worked on the macOS port either wasted their time or they figured out it wasn't worth the effort with all the restrictions Apple has on their OS.

Maybe part of the problem is that IBS(-like) symptoms, and many "fuzzy" / hard-to-diagnose ones (fatigue, etc) are also caused or exacerbated by anxiety and frustration and emotional distress.

So if I'm not hyperchondriac, but am frustrated and stressed by (x) random symptom or covid related (y), or being off sick w/ "normal" Covid & struggling to regain energy, then if I'm emotionally distressed by it, then may develop IBS and fatigue symptoms on top of that - which then feeds into the loop...

(Said as someone for the last several months currently struggling with a whole bunch of symptoms and not managing to get any helpful diagnosis or area I can work on to improve things...)

I've seen people claim that the vaccines ultimately cured their long covid. My suspicion is that a significant portion of long covid cases (and I'd be willing to bet a majority) are better described as anxiety disorders. I say that as someone with a large amount of personal knowledge on the subject of anxiety gained over a lifetime. Including lots of bowel issues.
That £76m was for the track and trace service including the teams of people on the phone. The app was a fraction of that cost.
This is exactly correct. "Decolonization" has come to mean a rejection of western values and culture and was certain to come to more extreme ends at some point. In many ways the events over the weekend have validated the "slippery slope" argument that's so beloved in conservative circles.
1) Who ever trusted X about anything at any time period either before or after Musk? The very premise seems absurd.

2) The example given in this article, that Musk posted links to allegedly bad news sources and then retracted them once he realized that he made a bad recommendation, should be seen as a positive sign. Musk is human, and like all humans, he makes mistakes. The important thing is that he realized he was wrong and tried to fix it.

3) The lesson taken from this isn't that "Musk is bad" it's that skepticism about all information should reign, regardless of source. It doesn't matter if Obama, Musk, Biden, Trump, Fauci, Gates, Alex Jones, or whoever tells the world some alleged fact. You should verify everything that anybody tells you about anything and trust nobody to be the sole arbiter of truth.

4) I think a good journalist would post more information about the endorsement that Musk gave by posting screenshots or something. I'd like to get a better sense of Musk's judgement by seeing their feed for myself, but this article doesn't give that important information. I think that a big problem with modern journalism is that it treats you as if you're not a big boy that can be trusted to make up his own mind and have to be told what to think rather than being shown the facts and giving you the opportunity to make up your own mind.

5) Speaking of responsible journalism, I'd like to point out that motives do matter. And while you can't read minds, it does seem that a lot of journalists' feelings about Musk are peppered by having their elite blue checkmark statuses ripped away from them and hypothetically being available to everybody. That should be a factor that weighs into anybody's analysis when reading journalists about Musk's activity.
We depend upon package repositories to maintain the list of packages for a given namespace, and to always serve the most recent signed list of packages for the requested, some, or all namespaces in the repository's package catalog. The SLSA and TUF specs summarize the vulnerabilities, risks, and components of software supply chain security.

Fdroid does not claim to scan all uploaded APKs AFAIU. Fdroid > Security Model: https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Security_Model/ :

> There is a big emphasis on operating in the public and making everything publicly available. We include source tarballs and build logs when we publish binaries

What's a ballpark figure for what the monthly cost to Fdroid would be to scan all uploaded APKs for security vulnerabilities?

Practically, it should be easy to add an upload_scan_and_post_back_to_the_pull_request task to each project's e.g. GitHub Actions YAML build definition; but then how does or how can SLSA help prove that the scan results were actually requested and merging and releasing were prevented if positive?

Stop eating them. Forgive me for the cynical take but "ultraprocessed" isn't stuff that just slips in without you realising, is it?

> There were a huge number of people who had long covid symptoms before vaccines were available.

I didn't say either/or.
When my wife first had ongoing symptoms after covid (before it had a snappy name), it was interesting how many people wanted to think that somehow she was making it up - and that being trapped in bed/on the sofa while I was out having fun with the kids was some sort of 'affectation'.

As people understood what long covid was and does, people generally came around to the idea, but still (mainly online) people have this opinion that 'people must be making it up' - despite SARs being known to cause similar long term issues for some of those infected, and some people having long term impacts from Spanish Flu 100 years ago.

imo, if you have to go to O3 or enable a pragma to get an "obvious" optimization then this is undesirable and probably something the programmer still needs to be conscious of, especially since we spend so much time doing development builds that are not at the maximum release optimization level.
Why not? The previous twitter:

Helping disabled people is probably the most important near-term application of this. I just like to ponder about long-term "sci-fi" implications, in terms of how and when these kinds of ideas will become actually plausible.

Some applications, like digital eyes, which connect directly to the optic nerve, would be first used to cure blindness, but soon people would start replacing their functioning eyes too, if it allows feeding pixels directly into the brain. Same with prosthetics, if they'd be better than biological ones. Then if you have cyborg eyes, arms and legs, why have a biological 'core' which is pretty much useless at this point.

Storing the brain in the body would actually be a bad idea. Human brains could be stored in a warehouse and they'd control robotic bodies remotely. You'd be able to jump into different bodies all over the world, and choose from different form-factors (ant, whale, dragon, etc.) This would actually be easier to implement, because the life-support system for the brain could be larger and consume more energy and other resources. You'd also be able to choose whether you want to live in a simulated world or a physical world through robots.

I think this is where we're quite realistically heading in less than 50 years.

> The tagging I’ll keep manual

Picard is not automatic, I'd describe it mostly as "assisted".

There's a two step process of track clustering and release metadata searching that are automatic, but each transition to the next step is manual so that you can review and adjust (either by using another matching method, fixing the lookup by pointing it to the correct release, or manually editing).

There's a "gold disc" visual feedback for when it detected perfect matches.

You can also decide if some/all tags should be updated from the global database or kept from the original file thus using the database as enrichment.
While I'd agree that stuff on Twitter was never particularly trustworthy, the conversion of the blueticks into a monetisation/paid status thing has certainly made it a bit riskier; Twitter no longer has a clear meaningful form of provenance verification. Is that actually a Reuters tweet, or a 'REuters' tweet with a paid bluetick? Most users will be (and are) fooled by this sort of thing, which was largely impossible under the old regime.

On (2), he should perhaps check _before_ promoting anti-Semitic fake news accounts; absurd to make excuses for him here.

Doesn't it? The legislation [1] says:

becoming aware of it, notify to ENISA any actively exploited vulnerability [...]
ENISA shall, without undue delay, unless for justified cybersecurity risk-related
grounds, forward the notification to the CSIRT designated for the purposes of
coordinated vulnerability disclosure

Maybe your interpretation is different to mine - but to me that sounds like every report will be subject to "coordinated vulnerability disclosure"

How much do we know? Probably not as much as we might think we know.

Could it be caused by vaccinations? Probably not. There seem to be plenty of unvaccinated people with long covid. The politicization of things might make it hard to study in general. Many of the people who were not vaccinated will insist they just had the flu, or a bad cold and would have avoided any sort of official diagnosis.

Could vaccines have made it worse? This is probably even harder to answer definitivel

Covid-19 Tied to Autoimmune Disease Risk
IBS is a syndrome (a grouping of symptoms), not a disease. It, by definition, has no clear cause or treatment. Also - it is pretty easy to prove you are experiencing these symptoms.

The body is a pretty complex thing, it can be difficult to determine the underlying cause of a symptom even if we do have an underlying understanding of what the body is doing (and sometimes we don't!).
>Target has never publicly disclosed the method through which the attackers exploited these web services. However, the leading theory suggests that suppliers might have been able to upload documents such as invoices via one of the web applications. The attacker could have exploited this functionality to upload a PHP file, which acted as a web shell, enabling them to execute commands directly on the system.

I think this is not how they got in, it was supply chain attack; they breached "Fazio Mechanical, a small heating and air conditioning firm in Pennsylvania that worked with Target and had suffered its own breach via malware delivered in an email[1][2]." Once they got credentials from Fazio Mechanical (via e-mail spear phishing attack), they had access to Target's corporate network, they moved laterally throughout Target's network and pushed down POS scrapping malware to stores' local POS machines. OP says all this but it was Fazio Mechanical credentials that were most crucial for entry in Target's network.

This was hack that sparked my interest and my ambition for cybersecurity research and my PC malware research so I still remember it to this day. It is crazy that even today, 10 years after, perpetrators (hackers) and are not yet arrested despite after Target hack, they kept hacking retailers and stealing more and more credit cards. This particular hacker group stole more than 40 million credit cards, mainly US credit cards. They are Russian hackers and probably will never leave Russia and face justice.
