I'm curious why you need navigation like this. Is it like selecting text while you read? (I didn't know that was a thing until I read comments about that.) I find it easier to just read the comments. I doubt the official HN will e

I just discovered RayCast's window manager[1]. - The "cycle 1/2, 2/3, and 1/3" feature is amazing. - As well as optional (CapsLock as) HYPER key[2]. (Still using Magnet for the activation areas) The one thing R

I'm developing a web app that makes it easier to view Google sheets (and forms) on mobile. My solution is: - Expandable rows - Optional custom row summary - By default, the row summary is just as much of the row that fits. - Some data

It's a matter of trade-offs. In theory, Handy could be developed by hand-rolling assembly. Maybe even binary machine code. - It would probably be much faster, smaller and use less memory. But... - It would probably not be cross-platfor

I think the Whisper models will all use GPU. Only the Parakeet model is limited to CPU. (I'm unfamiliar with AppImage. Was the model included in the app image, or was there a download after selecting the model?)

This also happened to me. And the overall onboarding/setup was clunky compared to other apps - SuperWhisper (probably has the best onboarding) - Handy - Whispering --- I think it could be improved by at least removing optional steps li

The demo video[1] shows the transcription starts before recording is stopped, but I couldn't recreate this with the actual app. The transcription would not show after a minute of recording, but it was all there once I hit stop. Was thi

SvelteKit has been designed so JS on the client can be optional. (All JS is executed in node.js, with optional JS enhancement on the client.) Try playing Sverdle with JS disabled! https://sveltekit-template.vercel.app/sverdl

Yeah! Stacher was one of the reasons I shared this on HN. Also interesting take on why downloaders are ethical; Google tacitly allows and actually needs them.

Good point~ I use fish shell abbreviations, now. `rm` expands into `trash` so I know it's been "aliased." I don't ssh into servers often, but hopefully I'd notice `rm` didn't expand. -- On a similar note, I use
