Reels are friendlier to shorter form content these days

Japanese auto captions suck

Other replier believes that competition is a system that works toward consumer needs and betterments. Advertising is extractive

Competition _is_ a system that works toward consumer needs and betterments. In advertising though, you are not the consumer.

Actually I thought I was clear in my framing that, if site owners are unhappy with cookie banners, it is unlikely that a conspiracy of ad networks would force them to accept the nuisance.

The claim is that no sites value their user experience enough to pick an ad solution with a better experience. I doubt that claim.


Good to know about OD-11. I like the OB-4 though it's not good value for the sound alone. Are you running OD-11 in multi channel mode? And are you flexing a $130k+ system?

x2 in stereo via optical, but a single 11 knocks an A4 out of the water, they're not kidding when they say carlsson sound, it is just that - OB-4 sounds fine but fell over and broke the dumb spinny volume knob thing 3rd day, back to TE and huge wait... never mind they're literally NOT FIXING KO-2s right now, refunds only, fuckin' TE.

TX-6 is not a very low quality gimmick

They may have a flat org structure but their payments are not similarly "flat" across the org. The economic structure is still pure capitalist.


You must use it to make transcripts and then write code to process the values in the transcripts


needs a crowdsourced model


Ideally, Mozilla would step up here given their mission statement, but they won't, probably because their CEO needs another bonus.


Yeah there's no chance Mozilla would do anything like this:

That's the first thing I thought of! I wonder how used these are. Are there any sources or data points indicating that this commonvoice data is being used, and if so, where/how? I think I may have contributed to this a few times back years ago. Nice to see it's still going, would be better to know it's being used.


It was used quite a bit of speech to text - but tts it’s not that great.


It costs a million dollar a year to host 32k hours of audio?


Why does YC’s president and CEO ignore this research and claim otherwise in his persistent campaigns online and irl?


Lots of the “elites” read and hold in high regard extremely shoddy right-wing writing by lazy-opportunist or outright fraudster “intellectuals” that pushes crap like this. You’ve probably seen some books of this sort given glowing recommendations by posters on this very site. See: If Books Could Kill

[edit] the apparent appeal of these is that they tend to push a “you’re already doing great by Doing Capitalism, and the best thing you can do is keep doing what you were inclined to do anyway, which was more of that, because other solutions don’t work” message to their readers, which has obvious conscience-assuaging appeal and utility as PR/cover for future actions for the rich & powerful. These books happen to also surprisingly-often launder other right wing stuff like bigotry or anti-criminal-justice-reform positions alongside the straightforward flattery.


I am so right wing I sympathize with sovereign citizens and push for anti-overreach reforms on that basis.


I don't see it
