Looks very nice, saved it for later. Last week, I worked on implementing always-on speech-to-text functionality for automating tasks. I've made significant progress, achieving decent accuracy, but I imposed some self-imposed constraint

For the people who self-host LLMs at home: what use cases do you have? Personally, I have some notes and bookmarks that I'd like to scrape, then have an LLM summarize, generate hierarchical tags, and store in a database. For the notes

Last time I tried a local llm was about a year ago with a 2070S and 3950x and the performance was quite slow for anything beyond phi 3.5 and the small models quality feels worse than what some providers offer for cheap or free so it doesn&#

The amount of bots scanning for vulnerabilities or spam for a hidden, no seo, no important website approaches 700 visits a day. In the past it was a bit more personal as someone had to target you directly, now it's just crawlers and bo

The way I would do it without seeing the implementation: - Atomic to track print order (name it counter). - Results slice stores items: {index, err, data}. - Goroutines: do work, store result, then loop-check if counter matches index to pr

Dealing with this is such a hassle. One of the reasons I left Greece was to avoid the mandatory military service. Now I have to provide seven years of evidence that I've been living abroad, and that proof has to be either university en

I haven't found any music recommendations services that really find what I'm looking for. What I'm looking for is usually something without high pitched noises, rythmic and a bit of novelty based on old patterns. I've tr

Built a video player using Tauri and the performance was terrible/unusable in linux under webkitgtk. Every release I'm hoping to see any solution, every release I'm dissapointed.

I really enjoy the AI assistant it has. One of the simplest easiest ways for me to interact with chatgpt/claude apis. Write prompt, copy, paste code.

I believe that cloudflare should at least have some kind of form where users can make their ip trustworthy. They can still be suspected for a period of time and in case there is another sign of malicious behaviour then they can get banned f

I had a different experience, I bought a S21U overseas. While in UK the screen wouldn't turn on while the phone was on. I went to Samsung KX in London and a day later I had my S21 with a new screen and battery for no cost.

I don't know why but Rust's syntax just nails it for me. The more I use it the more I appreciate it. I see many projects that diverge from Rust's syntax while being inspired by it. Why ?

NOT WORTH THE READ. All the posts that appeared recently on Nix have the same vague, over-politicized language where they are complaining that the person with most potential as a dictator is not one and they want more power to make decision

I believe there's a sweet spot before companies grow too much where there can still be some ethics behind some business decisions, after that ethics become a byproduct influenced by marketing strategies and public sentiment weighted ag

Was not aware of Thorium, looks interesting. Now I'm wondering if node.js could benefit from some of these optimizations?

I've started learning some C already, for 2024 I'll go deeper into compilers and unix programming. I feel that I lack a deeper understanding of how the code I write is compiled/interpreted and runs.

That's the plan for the initial prototype. My goal is to advance beyond this stage to generate optimized JS. While it's going to be less readable than handwritten js/ts, the trade-off would be performance boost. From recent e

Are you referring to frontend mostly? Would a language like Elm be a good fit for what you're referring to in terms of organization? One of the additional goals I have is to be able to write type safe APIs between frontend and backend

The browser APIs would be part of a small std library wrapper. I quite like the approach taken by Roc[0] in regards to platforms so we can have either browser apis or node apis. [0] https://www.roc-lang.org/

I like reason and rescript and I'm looking at them for inspiration but I'm not a fan of their async support. Still, I'm planning to write a lot more code in them just to understand them better.

Interoperability: I believe we can do interoperability by selectively wrapping the necessary imports in 'unsafe'. From there, it's up to the implementer to decide whether to handle it as a 'Result' or an 'Optio

That's so annoying, everytime I want it to write code or find a bug I need to resubmit the query with "I'll tip you $200 for ...", never needed to do this before turbo.

I believe it's really useful that sometimes things resurface on HN after a while. 1. Exposure of techniques, tools to people that are new to the field, or now the context is right. 2. People with experience share their insights and opi
