It would be super rad if someone plugged this dataset into CMU Sphinx. Google is the only decent ASR and a competitive open source alternative would be awesome. A big thank you to …

This comment hits the nail on the head for me. Pick a cloud provider. Spin up an instance that will be your server. Spin up an instance that will be your DB. Make your DB only list…

In the movie Take Your Pills, they mention Warhol taking a drug similar to Adderall. Wikipedia says it was Obetrol[1]. As an amphetamine I imagine it had a profound effect on him a…

This tool shows a lot of promise to me and I've already installed it on our stage box. Thanks! Some of our log lines contain large json blobs that uno only ignores when I set the d…
