  • Any opensource dictation(speech to text) application for windows?

    Jump

  • Do you have any programming experience?

    Whisper.cpp is fairly easy to use, there are plenty of open source libraries for audio input, and sending text as keystrokes in Windows is quite easy.

    There may very well be an existing solution, but if you want to put something together yourself, all the major building blocks already exist. You'd just have to write the code to tie it all together.

    Cambridge Dictionary adds skibidi, delulu and tradwife among over 6,000 new words

    Jump

  • I know what one of the three words in the title actually mean. If you want to know what a word means, you consult a dictionary. If people are actually using these words, it kind of makes sense to add their definitions.

  • Do you happen to use an ISP that implements CGNAT? I've seen this error, too, and I've read that it's flagging CGNAT IPs as a VPN?

  • Please spare me from having to get in touch with that shit I wrote back then

    Jump

  • I think age of code plays a big part. 2 years ago: Yeah, I could do better, but it's workable. 15 years ago: Delete everything and just start from scratch.

  • Surveillance Company Flock Now Using AI to Report Us to Police if it Thinks Our Movement Patterns Are “Suspicious” | ACLU

    Jump

  • Would something like this hold up in court, I wonder? Could a prosecutor argue that "the algorithm said so" is enough probable cause?

  • My new laptop chip has an 'AI' processor in it, and it's a complete waste of space

    Jump

  • I have to wonder if NPUs are just going to eventually become a normal part of the instruction set.

    When SIMD was first becoming a thing, it was advertised as accelerating "multimedia," as that was the hot buzzword of the 1990s. Now, SIMD instructions are used everywhere, any place there is a benefit from processing an array of values in parallel.

    I could see NPUs becoming the same. Developers start using NPU instructions, and the compiler can "NPU-ify" scalar code when it thinks it's appropriate.

    NPUs are advertised for "AI," but they're really just a specialized math coprocessor. I don't really see this as a bad thing to have. Surely there are plenty of other uses.

  • Australia Completely Loses The Plot, Plans To Ban Kids From Watching YouTube

    Jump

  • I disagree. YouTube has a huge amount of educational content, tutorials, and quality entertainment. Sure, a huge percentage is brainrot trash, but there's plenty of value to be found.

  • GitHub CEO delivers stark message to developers: Embrace AI or get out.

    Jump

  • So many people completely miss the mark when it comes to AI and coding. It's great for code reviews on code you wrote yourself, and it can be handy when you're developing code for a domain you don't have much experience in.

    What it is not good for is writing code on its own. Not if you want your code to be efficient, or performant, work correctly, or even compile.

  • If you don't want your conversations to be public, how about you don't tick the checkbook that says "make this public." This isn't OpenAI's problem, its an idiot user problem.

  • Philz Coffee Being Sold to Private Equity Firm for $145 Million, Employees Reportedly Getting Screwed Out of Their Stock

    Jump

  • I tried researching this a bit, and from what I understand, the company basically has no money, which in turn makes the stock worthless. So since the stock is effectively $0.00 per share, they can just "cancel" the stock completely.

    This could be oversimplified or dead wrong, but I don't understand any other way this could work legally.

  • Musk’s Starlink hit with hours-long outage after rollout of T-Mobile satellite service

    Jump

  • This makes me think that the Starlink system is very poorly designed. I know there are hundreds of satellites, and a large number of base stations.

    Even if a large chunk of the satellites were taken out and a few base stations failed, shouldn't the system keep working, just over a different path?

    This sounds very much not like a hardware failure, but more like somebody fucked up.

  • US Government Gives Elon Musk Permission to Detonate Rockets Over a Sacred Hawaian Island

    Jump

  • For what it's worth, I agree with you 100%. I'd love to see Musk fail in every one of his business endeavors, but if we're going to drop space garbage over the planet, an uninhabited island seems like a great place to do it. The fact that a small group of people has superstitious ideas about that small patch of land should be irrelevant.

  • Woman attacked driver that hit, killed chicken that was crossing the road, per police

    Jump

  • The biggest problem I have with what this woman did is that she used bear mace. Should have been a handgun, or even a machete, or perhaps a flamethrower.

  • Why is it often cheaper to buy new than repair old and how can repairing be encouraged on different levels of society?

    Jump

  • I'm one of those people that has the technical knowledge to repair most electronics. I still buy new sometimes.

    A while ago, I had to repair a faulty pellet stove. It was obvious that the main control board was bad (there was a single small circuit board connected to a handful of relays and sensors, all of which tested as good). This board contained a small cheap microcontroller, a few MOSFETs, and a handful of discrete components. A replacement was $500. Maybe $10 in parts at the most, and they wanted to charge me half the cost of the entire appliance.

    I was able to isolate the problem to a bad MOSFET and order a new one for about 50 cents. Had this been a complex circuit, there's no way in hell I could have found the problem without a schematic.

    So in my opinion, the problem is twofold. Manufacturers want ridiculous prices for replacement parts, and no documentation exists to repair the parts themselves. They obviously have schematics from when they designed the board. They should be forced to release them.

  • 1.4M of the nation's poorest renters risk losing their homes with Trump's proposed HUD time limit

  • It makes sense for housing assistance to be temporary. First, though, we need rent control and an appropriate minimum wage so that people don't have to rely on government assistance indefinitely.
