I’ve actually found that I’m able to process two speech streams and one music stream independently from those. At least for me, music seems to have a dedicated sub-processor of sorts.

With reasoning on I found E4B to be solid, but E2B was completely unusable across several tests.
Really easy: don't argue on the internet. The approach has many benefits.
Strong disagree. My personal number has also leaked and I get 5-10 cold calls per day. They call during important work meetings. They call during dinner with my family. They call when I'm away on vacation. I will never, ever willingly buy any product from these calls.
Canadian here using y'all every day. Might as well make it the formal English plural.
The instances of that happening are likely the LLM failing to call the engine for whatever reason and falling back to inference.
I’d bet it’s using function calling out to a real chess engine. It could probably be proven with a timing analysis to see how inference time changes/doesn’t with number of tokens or game complexity.
With a dedicated GPU and some cleverness it can be relatively quick. I split the response on punctuation and generate smaller clips in a pipeline. I haven't taken the model apart to try streaming the frames coming out of ffmpeg yet, but that would probably help a lot.
The model doing the heavy lifting is https://github.com/Rudrabha/Wav2Lip
Mic permissions on mobile are tricky, which might have been your issue? Note in this prototype you also need to hold the blue button down to speak.
Cool, I built a prototype of something very similar (face+voice cloning, no video analysis) using openly available models/APIs: https://bslsk0.appspot.com/
The video latency is definitely the biggest hurdle. With dedicated a100s I can get it down <2s, but it's pricy.
This was my undergraduate "thesis" project. We built a GDB plugin that would generate a puredata audio structure to help with debugging. Eg. it would play snoring during a sleep() call, each breakpoint could be set to a different frequency, etc. It was actually pretty interesting for multi-threaded code, though pausing to play the audio could change the runtime profile.
I have a lot of examples but a funny one that comes to mind is: in the early 2000s when IM clients were all the rage, I wrote a VB6 application to go through my MSN Messenger logs and rank my friends by how much I talk to them. Kind of like a MySpace top 10 prior to MySpace.
I spent a decent amount of time tweaking the UI, improving performance, adding filters, providing different file output formats, etc. Never shared it with anyone.
Also, at least the last time I checked, the Google Maps API was exorbitantly expensive. Niantic would likely get a discount, but avoiding this exploit doesn’t override all of the other benefits of OSM.
Fair. At the current rate, the revenue takes two years to cover the original cost. The net profit takes 6. The margins are quite good due to consistent price increases.
Similarly the Canadian province of Ontario leased it's only toll highway for 99 years to an international group, for an amount it currently earns in tolls every ~2 years. Fun.
In case the devs are reading, the documentation link from the Github description is broken (https://bulma.io/documentation/overview/start/), but https://bulma.io/documentation works
I tried so hard earlier this year to move back to FF from Chrome. I actually found the desktop experience great but the mobile app on iOS was so clunky, and I rely enough on sync, that I had to move back after a few months.
I think the misleading aspect in this case is that when looking at the 800k view, it seems that CO2 levels have doubled (or more) compared to previous peaks, whereas it's actually a ~30% increase. It's still a very significant increase, and should be shown accurately.
I run/ran a website where you could shop on AliExpress using crypto and advertised it as the only legitimate crypto website around. I had universally positive reviews but made low 5 figures in profit over the course of ~4y (not terrible as passive income considering the operating costs were nearly zero) before the latest crash dropped usage to nothing and I let bit rot take over.
Unfortunately the vast majority of crypto adopters are just riding the bubble for investment and have no interest in any other use cases, which are admittedly limited.
there’s a relevant xkcd, as usual: https://xkcd.com/2682/
“Consistent” UX is often one of the downsides of cross platform frameworks. Android and iOS have distinct UX details that users expect in their apps.
This is click bait. Nordstrom just announced in March that they’re closing down all of their Canadian stores, most of which are in high end neighborhoods, and I highly doubt this is unrelated.
Eleven Labs is the best I've found for speech, not sure about singing. Open to alternative suggestions.
Probably both, depending on which developers you compare against and how you measure productivity. Keep in mind there's an entire world of development where productivity is measured by number of JIRA tickets closed for button text updates.
Professional headshots have been both taken under unrealistic conditions and heavily edited for a long time. This is true for most selfies nowadays too. This doesn’t seem significantly different to me.
Dollar Store comes to mind
I've run http://olodolo.com (it mostly runs itself) since 2018, which lets people buy things on AliExpress using crypto. I often describe it as the only non-scam crypto website :)
It's badly in need of fixes and updates, but I still do about $1500-2000 in sales and $300-400 in profit monthly.
Can confirm to some degree as I built this system almost 10 years ago. Back then it was used for rich data in 3 apps that were all turned down years ago. I've been out of Google for a long time, so I don't know if it's still around or what it would be used for anymore.
This is awesome, I’ve been looking for something like this (particularly for mobile) for a while. One small issue I came across is a photo I uploaded came out with the wrong aspect ratio and I can’t seem to fix it.
