Indeed, I lost the history in a shuffle, but a similar use case broke in some Firefox update, and it's the exact reason behind this comment: https://github.com/seligman/podcast_to_text/blob/master/se

I suspect this is where Windows backwards compatibility bites them a bit. I've got a very old tool [1] that uses WriteProcessMemory and CreateRemoteThread to create a thread in the command process that launched it to remotely change t

This is the same idea I used for my Cloud IP lookup tool [1], lets it all work in browser with a small file to search against [1] https://cloud-ips.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/index.html

I ended up using the same basic layout for the database behind a little IP lookup tool I wrote to make lookups somewhat responsive from JavaScript [1]. It ends up working out pretty well. [1] https://cloud-ips.s3-us-west-2.amazo

WhisperX along with whisper-diarization, runs at something around 20x of real time on audio with a modern GPU, so for that part, you're looking at around $1 per twenty hours of content to run it on a g5.xlarge, not counting time to bui

$0.005 per hour per IP. Assuming AWS has 50% utilization on IPs they've assigned for EC2, this is a $1.28 billion/yr fee they created. Scale is fun.

I asked it to summarize the transcript for a podcast about an episode of Star Trek. One minor issue in grammar, but otherwise, it does a remarkable job of making a summary: > In the Star Trek episode "The Cage", Captain Pike i

I wrote MicroKeys[1] out of a similar frustration. Granted, I never got past the POC stage, so it's not as feature rich as AHK, but it solved a very specific itch I had. I debate if I should flesh it out further, or try using AHK aga

Yep, it takes a bit of GPU RAM. I'm using 3 machines with NVidia 3080 or better. I let them go for a few weeks over the winter break when I was mostly disconnected from the tech world. The workers prioritized podcasts I'm perso

Mostly just vanilla JS on that page, and a tiny bit of Python glue code to turn the WebVTT output from Whisper into a data format for the JS.

It broke when I tried to feed it an entire podcast file, but still, I took this as a push to try out Whisper AI for myself, turns out it's easier to use than I thought. Long story short, I used it to transcriptify a podcast: https:&#

I'll join in: I'm building a tool called MicroKeys. It's a macro program, for Windows right now. It uses MicroPython as the script engine to let you register hot keys that do things. It's very much a work in progress

Where's the line? I rented a EC2 node to calculate a fractal. It involved running a 36 physical cores machine at 100% CPU for a few days. I paid AWS for that, but I surely impacted the lifespan of that box compared to someone else th
