    FYI, it supports decoding ultrasound wav files. I use a Dodotronic UM250K mic to capture ultrasound up to 125 kHz. LCD monitor and other electronics emits some interesting sounds. …

    I've been looking for something like this to review books. Two suggestions: 1. allow to load a book from a url, so notes could be added to arbitrary books; 2. allow to select text …

    I do have a WebGL-based implementation of FFT, but here I used good old JS. When properly written, it gets translated into really fast machine code, which is even faster than WebAs…

    Very reasonable ask, sir. In fact, I had added sample.mp3, but forgot to add a button in the UI. Now that's fixed.

    Yeah, that's a bandpass filter, essentially. But I did it the lazy way: audio signal -> FFT -> zero out unwanted frequencies -> inverse FFT.

    Your spectrogram looks elongated horizontally because the FFT window size is too large. I use window size 1024 with sample rate 48000 Hz, so one window covers 1024/48000=0.02 sec. …

    You can select an area and zoom into it. Another option is to change sample rate in the config in the top right.

    It uses "audio/webm;codecs=opus" to record mic. Now it's possible to change it in the config menu in the top right. Safari probably needs audio/mp3. Edit: also consider "audio/foo;…

    Tested on toy examples: fibonacci numbers, quick sort and so on. Give it a pile of some C++ mess from any well known project.

    "Am I interested to see what HN thinks about this?" If the answer is yes, I upvote the post. The article itself might be junk, but that's irrelevant.

    Do we even have a definition of intelligence? A definition that is not a word salad made of vague terms?

    The pantsers can also fit the model I've described. In this case GPT would keep in memory a sliding window of past N=1024 words, like it does today, but in addition to that it woul…

    So if we asked GPT to write a book, it would be hallucinating a chain of words without sticking to any coherent plot. However, we could use a "multi-resolution" approach even with …
