For what it's worth, if you don't have the chip that powers this card, there's also the PicoGUS which is a multi-function, software-defined ISA card that includes the ability to em…

I've found that for CPU inference the PyTorch-based (non-quantized) version of Pocket TTS actually performs (both speed and quality-wise) better than the ONNX version, even after f…

You'd be amazed what exists on the market these days. For example, the pre-terminated InvisiLight fiber cabling is 0.6mm in diameter and has a 2.5mm bend radius. I've personally in…

What "heavy handed tracing" was turned on by default?

If you haven't already seen it, I highly recommend watching the "War Stories" video on the making of Prince of Persia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sw0VfmXKq54 On a related note…

Do you have a link to results confirming this? Kroko does not seem to be on the Open ASR Leaderboard. Parakeet has an average WER of 6.32 across several common datasets.

Why the choice of Kroko over something like parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v3, which is also faster than realtime on CPU?

After having to deal with VM hosts that do GeoIP blocking, which unintentionally blocks Let's Encrypt and others from properly verifying domains via http-01/tls-alpn-01, I settled …

On Linux, this is why I always turn to using abstract sockets when I only need local locking. Only one process can bind and the kernel cleans up automatically on process exit. You …

Also be aware that kernel support for shebangs depends on CONFIG_BINFMT_SCRIPT=y being in the kernel config.

It's only an alternative if you have a backing swap device. zram does not have this requirement, so (aside from using no compression) it's basically the only solution for some scen…

tl;dr: Use surge protectors when you care about your electronics and/or your health.

This seems a bit strange to me considering the default behavior is to only show a suggested command if possible and do nothing else. That means they explicitly opted into the autoc…

It didn't work for me either, but apparently one of the issues is that it assumes window.speechSynthesis is available which may be disabled via about:config > media.webspeech.synth…

In my opinion it's primarily for less noisy logs.

I think it goes without saying that you would still want to be using keys instead of passwords for the actual authentication. Port knocking should always be an additional layer, no…

For what it's worth if you have control over both client and server and don't want to limit access using a strict IP whitelist, an alternative solution that will keep your logs qui…

Generally speaking (I've not tested this kind of setup with the cosmopolitan libc) what I've done in the past with C is use something like libmicrohttpd along with some web assets …

Even with node.js, it's possible to be faster and/or use less memory than better-sqlite3. For example, here is an opinionated sqlite addon I wrote that shows just that (while execu…

There are still some alternative shells that exist, even for Windows 10 and 11, including xoblite (inspired by blackbox I believe) [1] and Cairo Shell [2]. [1] https://xoblite.net/…

I recognize that, but surely there could be overlap in some areas or problems unique to streamers who don't stream for a living. For example, I could see streamers who stream for a…

Every time I see articles talking about this subject, it's always completely focused on Twitch streamers that stream for a living. I would be more interested in hearing the contras…

From their pricing FAQ[1]: 19. Why do Picovoice engines require an internet connection? While data is processed offline, locally on-device, Picovoice engines call home servers to s…

Potential buffering issues aside, as others have pointed out the node.js example is performing asynchronous writes, unlike the other languages' examples (as far as I know). To do a…
