hahaha! plus ca change indeed. (I keep coming back to this one so I've got half a dozen messages on HN asking for the exact same thing!). It's a shame, whisper is so prevalent, but not great at actual streaming, but everyone uses

Ah, the thing I really want is to see the words that I'm speaking being transcribed (i.e. realtime) For some reason I rarely see that feature.

by mijoharas 8mo ago
One thing I keep looking for is transcribing while I'm talking. I feel like I need that visual feedback. Does voxtype support that? (I wasn't able to find anything at glance) Handy claims to have an overlay, but it seems to not wo

Looks like he's got a few posts mentioning that he likes nu[0]. Something to keep in mind if I'm ever looking to switch I guess. [0] https://x.com/mitchellh/status/1907849319052386577

Oh and one other thing I was curious about. Did Mitchell comment on why he wrote it in nushell? I've not really messed around with that myself yet. Would people recommend it? I feel like I have such huge inertia for changing shells at

> The idea is based on the already successful system used by @badlogicgames in Pi. Thank you Mario. This is from the twitter post referenced above, and he says the same thing in the ghostty issue. Can anyone link to discussion on that or

Ok, I guess this is the regular time for me to look for a local realtime transcription solution on Linux, and not finding anything good. Maybe this'll get wrapped into a nice tool later. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I mean, it'd be good if these tools followed the xdg base spec and put their config in `~/.config/claude` e.t.c instead of `~/.claude`. It's one of my biggest pet peeves with a lot of these tools (now admittedly a l

I feel like there is a commonly mentioned idea that "speaking a foreign language is easier after having a drink or two". I've found that especially true with Mandarin because (I think) a beginner speaker is more likely to spe

I think it makes sense, both for this, and for curl. Presumably people want this for some kind of prestige, so they can put it on their CV (contributed to ghostty/submitted security issue to curl). If we change that equation to have th

Do you care to share your implementation?

How would people compare bubblewrap to firejail? They seem reasonably similar in feature set. Are there any good reasons to pick one over the other?

by mijoharas 9mo ago
Yep, rust forces you to think about lifetimes. Zig only suggests it (because you're forced to think about allocation, which makes you naturally think about the lifetime usually) but does not help you with it/ensure correctness. It

by mijoharas 9mo ago
I'm not super experienced with zig, but I always think that in the same way that rust forces you to think about ownership (by having the borrow checker - note: I think of this as a good thing personally) zig makes you think upfront abo

Oh that's great! How did I not know about zapper?! (Usually on desktop I remove annoying things in inspector by just deleting the HTML element manually, but on mobile I usually just closed the site. Glad to have a nice solution now!)

Awesome, this sounds cool. In terms of UX, I kinda want something to paper over the inconsistencies of the different tools I need to use to set up the network etc. (Kinda like the `docker` CLI tool). When I looked at it the first thing I th

This seemed quite interesting but it seems to run them on GCP rather than locally. I had a brief glance at running firecracker VM's locally as that sounded interesting, but it doesn't seem too easy. Does anyone know of any good so

Out of interest is there a process to petition the FSF to take up something like this? How do they triage and decide what to pursue?

So, I wanted to use tailscale for a few local services in my home, but I run a few of them on the same device, and have a simple reverse proxy that switches based on hostname. Afaict I can't use a tailnet address to talk to that (or is

Thanks! Would you recommend bubblewrap over firejail, and if so, how come?

have you got a specific firejail wrapper script that you use? Could you share?

I'm interested in the embeddings models suggested. I had some good results with nomic in a small embedding based tool I built. I also heard a few good things about qwen3-embedding, though the latency wasn't great for my usecase so

looks like they've got some support for bezier's internally (and they allow exporting SVG's) so I assume the building blocks should be there? I definitely have no idea, and haven't looked into it though.

by mijoharas 11mo ago
I was somewhat excited about it, but one feature I wanted for the thing I was doing at the time was importing an svg, which it didn't support at the time (and from a cursory github search still doesn't support?). It's a shame
