In Erfurt since 2,5 hours. Out of office train driver keeps us updated from chats with fellow drivers (their sources say it is due to software update), radio is fixed now and train…

Little on differences other than bounding boxes and double the price compared to their previous OCR v3 model from December - https://mistral.ai/news/mistral-ocr-3/ - other benchmar…

I observe that music OCR space and the only really good solution so far is soundslice. You scan and review some edge cases and get really good results. Paid service by a small comp…

This reminds me of a learning resource that I can't find again: you start with an assessment of how many words you know and then you get new words in context with every session (an…

I like the direction! But why stop with CRM functionality with very limited schema for tasks on the headless when OP has a lot more to offer there? Why stop at CRM plus Project Man…

Mistral Voxtral has timestamps and diarization and does a good job for German (have not tested for other languages yet).

Have been using it for transactional mails, that was okay. Have not tried it for non-transactional, esp. not in 20+ mio/months.

It's also difficult to find providers for competetive large-scale non-transactional emails, i.e. marketing and newsletter mails. None comes close to AWS, closest comes are messagef…

The project was vibe-coded by the author and hence, likely the LLM created that tagline as well. Your service is around a year old (based on https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44…

Article on the creation: https://www.mikenikles.com/blog/i-vibe-coded-a-database-gui Author wanted to try vibe coding, despite being a critic. Says that result is unmaintainable.

While checking out the new Remarkable reader, I wanted to compare sizes against other readers. I could not find a simple, non-bloated app that helped. So I built one, together with…

Any first-hand experiences with the Nxtpaper devices? There's a lot of press coverage of the release official material, especially on the 14 inch model, but few actual reviews. Ava…

https://github.com/simonw/llm-cmd supports Anthropic (and a lot more models) to achieve the same.

Documentation of processes with annotations. There's lots of steps, each step with a screenshot and ~10 annotations and if steps change, I need to recreate from scratch. Doable, bu…

I loved Skitch as well and this is a neat app. I wish there was some way of saving a sketch (maybe in LocalStorage) and edit it later (e.g. replacing with new screenshot but keep t…
