I think that's fair, but i also thing that it's mostly just musicians that would ever think that. I don't think the average person (geek or not) would assume that. I'm a musician and I didn't think it'd write s

I don't understand why this doesn't actually do the transcription / translation locally. Sending the data to openAI for paid conversion makes no sense. Whisper can be legally run on your computer, for free. Running it locally

I've said it before, but it needs repeating. chatGPT is a very confident FICTION generator. Any facts it produces are purely coincidental. Please stop assuming anything it says it true. It was never designed to do that and it provably

A home page that literally just has company name, log in with github, and "learn more about company name" doesn't seem a very convincing pitch. I'm not going to click "learn more" because you've given me

gotta point out that explicitly banning putting names over people is explictly excluding a very useful accessibility accommodation for folks with any degree of faceblindness. It can 100% be done in a non-sketchy way by simply limiting the n

it sounds a lot like you're reinventing what Beaker Browser had built on top of DAT, except that it could do more. For example, they made a distributed Twitter clone as a proof of concept, but folks actually started using it. Definitel
