I've used https://github.com/kaegi/alass and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It's not an easy problem to address automatically... Video players wouldn't want that in their codebase, maybe

For me it used to jump to the next chapter instead of the next page when reading Japanese novels but they fixed that bug in 5.0.

I always suspected governments desperately seek 2% inflation because they are long term borrowers.

I've made my own mpv extension for Japanese subtitle analysis too. It can also create Anki cards automatically (with screenshot and audio). Having a scriptable media player is really something else.

Well, if you really need the autoscale feature to handle sudden and ludicrous spikes of traffic, you will most likely also use a database that autoscales too. i.e. DynamoDB. For most applications, it's really not needed though.

You can look up words on the Kindle. And if you highlight them there are ways to access the highlighted sentences in a machine-friendly way (to i.e. export them to Anki).

Indeed, you get high quality in context cards, something that is still missing from most Anki decks. The code is here https://github.com/pigoz/mpv-nihongo , keep in mind that a lot of stuff is hardcoded, poorly document

I did something similar for myself using mpv's scripting interface (for Japanese immersion). I can press a button and have the current subtitle analyzed for words with mecab, or press another button and have audio + screenshot + text s

I always found this system very interesting, since the citizen can decide how some of their tax money is spent (besides voting). On the other hand I have always lived in Northern Italy, and around half of my taxes go to the poorer regions o

The title kinda reminded of Evangelion where all the choices are made by 3 independent AI super computers with a majority vote.

I have not open-sourced my code since it's a gross hack I did in one afternoon. It looks exactly like the screenshot of that project. Very interesting that I thought of the same solution without knowing jijimaku.

I made something similar for Japanese learning, but instead of merging subtitles, I analyze the Japanese subs with mecab, look up the words I likely don't know based on their JLPT level, and add them with reading and translation on the

Currently this is vaporware, but there are a lot of interesting ideas. Can't wait to get my hands on it. The syntax for Lenses is particularly cool imho. Since it's bootstrapped on top of OCaml I doubt it has HKT though.

This look really nice! I contributed a lot of macOS related code to mpv, but even if the project has a huge user base of power users, developers, videophiles, it's quite hard to use by your average joe. This project fills that gap very

Of course I don't believe these countries demise is caused by longer working hours. I know Italy a bit more than Greece and the main problem there is decades of widespread corruption at all levels of society. But in some way it's

Several people argue that working long hours will have a negative impact on productivity. For example if you look at EU countries, the ones with the economy in worse conditions are those with longer working hours (Greece, Italy).

I am learning Japanese as well. Thanks for that NHK link that's a great resource, I love the furigana!

Yeah but the people corrupting you, would ask you for your sha as confirmation. Here in Italy for example it's forbidden to bring your smartphone into the voting cabin, because the Mafia was asking for photo proofs. So esrauch found a

I know very little about security but couldn't a system be created like git, where for every vote the voter gets a sha of his vote? That way she can later verify that in his section repository his vote is still there and has been count

For non prime packages, I live in Italy and a lot of stuff on Amazon catalogue is generally not available for next day delivery (which I use to time deliveries when I know the next day I work from home). In Italy the express couriers are no

Aside from the delivery in 30 minutes, for me the coolest part is delivery to the back of your garden. You can get secure deliveries, even while not at home. That's great.

So I assume the new native hypervisor is available from cli as well? Then that's excellent!

I don't understand why Docker for Mac is a GUI application. I'd rather get the same features from the CLI.
