Not open source, but https://fluen.ai does a good job at translating subs, while using your own or standards style guides for the target language - ie. reading speed, max character…

https://fluen.ai gives very accurate subtitles (and subtitle translations).

Yes, I’ll give you that. I think the point I was trying to make was that being denied some activities ( or have them severely restricted) as a young kid, may have repercussions lat…

I think the step from books->TV was much more dramatic that TV->SocialMedia. the delta of stimulation is much greater in the former, imho. In any case, 1hr of iPhone/day is way too…

Shouldn't this account for a round trip, and the speed through copper (~ 2/3rd of the speed of light)? That would lower the radius to much more than 500 miles.

Being an old trombone myself, I find the learning curve to get proficient in any recent UI framework isn't worth my time. I use an old school text editor to write html/js manually,…

Simply put, I did it because what is interesting for Canadians or Australians is slightly different from what matters to people in US. I'm working to open it to other countries as …

I'm working on a news reader that works in the opposite way of traditional news reading apps. It uses Twitter as a sort of enhanced RSS feed and ranks news based on how much they a…

Ok, so I had a closer look at it and now I have a question: on the homepage you have 121 ideas atm, but I don't see where I can browse them, except for the top 10. The hello page s…

Dude, can I just say I wanna make love with the idea behind assembly? I just saw the website and video and it makes so much sense!!

I could build you one of those without privacy intrusion, and add the ability to switch from home/work/car automatically using GPS. I'd be happy with 1% of what they raised , anyon…
