This should work fantastic in theory, since differing vocabulary (not grammar) is the main factor that determines the difficulty of a new language. Putting off this primary obstacle so one can ease into it sounds genius to me. It also agree

Exactly. The proof they did not actually crack Bitcoin is the fact they said they did.

In the context of Condorcet's jury theorem, the percentages refer to the chance of voting for the correct outcome. Think of a legal trial and there is no ambiguity about the meaning of "50%" is.

Yes. Back around 2020 they forgave me a $1000 bill for a side project I thought was running on a free tier.

Hello HN — This is a desktop app that accepts typed text and synthesizes a handwritten version of it, using recurrent neural networks in real time. The network is implemented as a library (included in the Releases section), written in 100%

Hey HN — This is a simple web app that allows you to draw an alphabet, type some text, and then have the text written in your own handwriting. I’m happy to hear feedback or answer questions about how it works! P.S. Drawing the entire alpha

I recommend Sciter.JS as a lightweight alternative to Electron. It's less than 10mb. If you visit the repo here: https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk There's a database demo in samples/sqlite.

How does this compare to Sciter? I understand this is primarily to overlay UIs over full screen applications (like games), but Sciter has that capability as well. Particularly how easy is it to style things, considering Sciter allows CSS?

Would you be able to mention these apps? I would like to take a look.

I've performed a couple experiments remaking Electron apps using Sciter. My first target was https://github.com/AkashRajpurohit/clipper , a neat little clipboard manager. The owner was gratious enough to officiall

Sciter.JS is going to change that: https://github.com/c-smile/sciter-js-sdk I cloned a 165mb Electron app in Sciter, and it was only 6mb: https://github.com/GirkovArpa/clipper-sciter
