There are some command line tools to do this (see other comments), and I think they use ffmpeg under the hood. They work, and I built a version of one myself as a proof of concept before I started this, but I quickly realized I wanted visua

Interesting, thanks for the link. This would be much fancier than the simple thresholding I'm doing currently. It might be overkill for the use cases I'm targeting right now (clean recordings, probably done with audio gear) but I&

I think I’ve seen that! It was impressive. The jumpcutter python script was one of the first things I stumbled upon, and it looked super useful. Then I wanted the ability to tweak the params and visualize in real time, which led me to start

Nice! I’ve had some beta users request the ability to add markers or audio cues. It could be a nice opportunity to get into some ML stuff.

Yep there are! This is a harder problem to solve but I have plans to handle it down the road. For now, I’m targeting it at folks who make videos in the “egghead style” [0] - short, tightly-edited code screencasts where there’s very little d

I'm making a video editor that removes silence from videos. After creating a bunch of code screencasts, I've found most of my editing time is spent manually cutting out chunks of silence, and it's always felt like a job the c

I debated between submitting the Forbes article or the company website, but went for the article because of the background info and the discussion of technical tradeoffs between LiDAR and camera-based systems. The company website [1] is als

Yep there are definitely some differences, especially once you start to go off the beaten path by including HTML in the Markdown, or using whatever flavor of template language the SSG provides. I've got some older posts that use Jekyll

Oh boy, YouTube embeds! I went through checking the Lighthouse score on a few of my pages a while back, and the ones that had videos were performing pretty badly. It turned out that embedded YouTube videos were pulling down something like 1

While I really like the idea of serving raw HTML and CSS, I think that on the authoring side, a static site generator that ingests Markdown and generates HTML is a more practical way to go. I think writing raw HTML can work fine for small

Yeah, the incremental builds are pretty good. I even turned on LiveReload and it's ok-ish. It's not super snappy but it mostly works. If I move to something else I want the ability to include proper components on the page, whether

Heh, they are indeed pure text files, but then again so is XML :D My Jekyll posts are mostly Markdown with some YAML frontmatter, but some have a few "include" statements here and there that use Liquid. The frontmatter stuff is

by dceddia 6y ago
I have! I love the speed aspect of it, but I'm less keen on the template language. I'd have to rework a lot of Liquid stuff that I've built up over time, then it looks like it'd be very hard to port out of Hugo down th

The linked blog post was a good read about why the author went down this path, goals of the project, and some technical challenges along the way: https://czep.net/20/stasis.html As someone with a Jekyll blog who's

SQLite does have an in-memory option but you don’t want to use that here, otherwise it won’t actually be persistent. It’d get destroyed when the app restarts. You want SQLite to persist to a file. I think OP meant stop as in “unsubscribe”.

The quote is based on one from Michael Pollan’s book In Defense of Food, around 2007. The original is "Eat food, not too much, mostly plants." It’s been reworded into at least a few things since then.

I’m not sure if it would fit into your dev stack, but letting Tailwind be handled by a Makefile might help. Or, really, any build tool that can use timestamps to determine if a build is needed. I’ve got a setup like this for a couple Eleven

I think a big part of being "horrendous at being self-directed on long-running, large-scale, multi-step tasks" comes from not being trained on that set of skills. I'm not so sure it's an inherent human trait. The traditi

If you're on desktop, try moving your mouse vertically. "Up" seems to zoom in, and "Down" zooms out. Fully zoomed-out, I think it's closer to what you expected to see.

I agree it sucks, but isn't this pretty much what "everyone" was asking for? A few years ago it felt like every week there was some refrain of > Look, I don't want to pay $120 for 900 channels I never watch. Just let

Awesome project! In terms of getting people excited about it, embedding a screenshot or two in the README would go a long way, I think. Congrats on shipping!

First, congrats on launching the book. That's a huge achievement and you should be proud! It's also great that you've kept on it for 2 years, and published a lot of posts. So the question is why hasn't it "worked&qu

I’ve been down that rabbit hole myself. My blog is still running Jekyll but my comments are now on a self-hosted install of Commento. It works pretty well. For me the main feature is that it’s not Disqus, but another nice benefit is that co

Yeah, it probably depends on the audience somewhat. I know other developers who have avoided Catalina up til now (and I was one myself, until I got a new MacBook late last year), so that’s in the back of my mind as I’m thinking about making
