   Saw this on HN a while ago [1], really eye-opening: https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/b1a1jn00hc > The first sales come from the loyal CISOs who work with the fund. > This "loyalty program&

   The author literally asked if the people were willing to take part in an experiment and clearly stated the goal. Doesn't sound very manipulative to me.

   I'll look into it for the next iteration! I could just take the transcript that's already on the page and put it somewhere separate from the audio. But thinking about it a little more, what would the use case for a text version ac

   Same, it was using the high quality openai voice until my account ran out of funds.. Now it's using edge-tts which is free. So far it seems like the best option in terms of price/performance, but I'm happy to switch it up if

   In my experience, our current AIs work best when heavily grounded with real data. Maybe try and work with actual footage, reconstructions, or existing simulations as an input to make the videos more realistic

   Hi, I wanted to try this, but account creation doesn't work for me. With GitHub it gives me "invalid auth code" and with email PW it gives me this, even though my password fulfills all these and I tried many different ones &q

    This is perfect. If I was on the team, I would have this framed and hang it up in the office, to get a good chuckle every time I walk by.

    +1 for replacing ES with ParadeDB. I did this for one of my projects recently and it's working just fine for my use case (FTS), with much less overhead. The DXP could use some improvement, but I think they'll get there. Good to se

    The issue is that the voice track will be shorter than the music track if you speed it up. So you'll have the music playing until the end, but the voice track ending before that. It's definitely possible, just a bit more complex t

    Interesting, thanks for sharing! Looks like this one has stopped publishing since the end of September though.

    Thanks for the feedback! 1) That's strange, I don't do anything to prevent zooming. Although I could provoke a situation where I interacted with the player and it somehow captured all subsequent touch inputs, so zooming was blocke

    Thanks for the feedback, looks like you're not the only one. Personally I enjoy it, but I can understand that some might find it distracting. I just need to figure out a way to implement a toggle for the music, while also playing nicel

    Tbf, there's a section in the prompt for this exact situation. Worth it just for this little wow moment.

    True, that is not a good look. > This formatting and font mixing is difficult to read on mobile. I guess for us it's obvious that it's a meta comment, but I can understand the confusion. Still, it could have figured out that &q

    So the best of the last 8 hours, with a new episode every hour? I think that makes sense, you could check in every 8 hours or so and have a fresh set of stories.

    Thank you! Most of the people here seem to prefer a longer form, so I think I'll move in that direction. > split it into sections with updates on previous stories at the end So basically, if a story comes up that has been reported o

    That seems to be the general consensus, I think it makes sense to move in that direction and beef it up a little.

    Yeah, if you look at the page source, there's actually no text in the document body. At one point I will have to use a JS-capable browser, to capture pages like this one.

    Thanks for the comment, I'm really enjoying the discussion it has sparked. Yes, I'm just taking the top comments, along with a few child comments, in order to not exceed the context window of the model. Regarding personalization,

    I added it to the prompt for this exact situation. So it was "hard-coded". Tbh it would have been a bit scary if that happened organically. Kind of like animals recognizing themselves in the mirror levels of self-awareness.
