I’m using whisper with superwhisper on my mac. I’ve assigned a key on my keyboard, when I press the key it starts listening and when I release it, the text gets copied to the current cursor location. It works pretty well.

You could also take a look at PostGIS to do geospatial queries (if needed). And in the past I’ve used node-mapnik to render vector/image map tiles. You can indeed host and cache them effectively on S3.

It seems similar to https://swarmlet.dev as well (I’m the author). I’ve since abandoned the project for different reasons. Currently I’m using Dokku, and have been using it for ~8 years. It’s a lovely project and pretty mature.

'Copy clean link' in Brave doesn't (yet) seem to remove the `?si=` URL parameter though.

I wish this was an episode in the ‘Rome’ (HBO - 2005) series. It’s a great watch nonetheless.

Brave browser works quite well to block YouTube ads, I’ve used it for a couple of years now and it blocks ads from most sites pretty good.

I feel the same. If I work 5 days I'd feel like I'm wasting so much time, when realistically I can do the same amount of work in 4 days. I'm working as a developer so it's also about retaining my attention span. I just c

At my previous job I worked on a digital campaign protesting the repeal of Net Neutrality[0]. It was a nice technical challenge to save (and render) those millions of leaflets. More about the project here[1] [0]: https://papers

In JS, functions like filter/map/reduce can help when you try to write immutable code because you only work with the arguments, and return an output value. You don't have to define an empty/temporary array first, and fil

I think it’s ok when students are forced to be bored by their tutors. I’ve taught bachelor students who spent the entire lecture on their phone. After the lecture they would seize a lot of my (unpaid) time for extra face to face, or they’d

I can't imagine myself graduating high school if I had a smartphone back then. Those things are so addictive, they just keep on giving. When I was studying all you could play on your phone was Snake. Going out with friends and making a

I used to be opposed to git GUI’s, but after a few years and working in larger codebases, I love the way they visualize everything. Especially when dealing with hundreds of branches. Sure I’ll use the git CLI from time to time but GitKraken

Sure, me and all my friends have PayPal (I’m based in the EU). It’s quite convenient as a payment method if you don’t want to use a credit card. Especially for international purchases.

I’m not updating my music Macbook Pro anymore, I’m still on MacOS Catalina. VST’s break, (older) audio drivers stop working, etc. I spent too much time getting everything to work as it currently is.

What's up with the presenters' audio? Either they all have a lisp, or something is not configured right. It sounds like they're saying 'Starschlip' instead of 'Starship'.

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw a Starlink chain in the sky from my balcony in Amsterdam. We have a lot of light pollution so I was amazed to see it from the city.

Near my previous job there was a park with similar tiling [0]. I'm not sure if the pattern qualifies as truly aperiodic(?) but it triggered my brain every day, I couldn't not look at it. I love these kinds of patterns, they always

Maybe fix WebXR first? iOS Safari still doesn't support it[0], so developing AR web apps for clients is not great. You basically have to use a service like 8thwall, which is a pain to work with compared to browser API's. And it&#x

Ideally I'd sync it with Ableton's clock. I'm using Ableton only for tempo and multitrack recording. Maybe this is achievable without the RPi being a MIDI device? Sending messages over the network, like GuitarEffects which us

I'm not sure if the GPU is powerful enough on the RPi, maybe something like a Jetson Nano could handle running ML models better.

Very cool, I've ordered a Raspberry Pi touchscreen this weekend and it should arrive today. I want to make a MIDI sequencer with it, or at least play with the idea. I hope my old Raspberry Pi can work with MIDI (over USB) without too m

I can highly recommend using Shellcheck [0] when writing Bash, it also has extensions for VS Code and other IDE's. It makes writing Bash much easier. [0] https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck
