Show HN: Tech Diff – Compare different technologies https://bit.ly/468pNep

Show HN: Tech Diff – Compare different technologies Hi everyone. My name is Peter. Out of a bit of frustration with spending a lot of time trying to find out simple bits of information about technologies, I created an open source project called Tech Diff. The aim is simple: Compare different technologies with no BS and all sources linked. Right now, I have added in the comparison of some popular file formats. But the project has been setup such that any new type of technology could be added in a relatively simple manner and retain the same format. Repo can be found here: https://bit.ly/466p0Lb Appreciate any feedback! https://bit.ly/3uiHUB0 November 13, 2023 at 01:34AM

Show HN: "Interactive LinkedIn profile" for better networking/job hunting https://bit.ly/3Sy7mwF

Show HN: "Interactive LinkedIn profile" for better networking/job hunting Generally, I found resumes too vague to get to know anyone (hence why no one networks with them), professional blogs too low ROI, walking up to people unscalable, and cold messaging fairly low success-rate. I wanted the 'marketing tool' of networking to get myself out there. Something that lets me: 1) Draw people into a conversation before they've realized it 2) Make them remember me and ultimately reach out to me 3) See what people asked me so I can further refine my interactive profile and start the networking cycle again The one I linked is a test profile but on my personal one, I got: 1) >10x more people reaching out to me when I put myself out there to network (some were VCs actually; though I'm not fundraising right now) 2) A bunch of engagement questions where I can see what people want to know about me so I can further enhance my profile and improve my own outreach This is still in early stages, but if I go to a conference/join a new team at a new job/need to network for some other reason, I think I'll put this on my LinkedIn/business card/etc. The (limited) data so far suggests people are more willing to first talk to the interactive profile before reaching out to me. I guess that makes sense, it's less commitment than emailing me. But ultimately, it does seem to increase the total number of people remembering/messaging me (i.e. improving the professional networking funnel as it were). I would love y'all's thoughts on it https://bit.ly/3SA6gjR November 13, 2023 at 01:44AM

Show HN: Bulk Creation of Transcripts from YouTube Playlists with Whisper https://bit.ly/47lOJjS

Show HN: Bulk Creation of Transcripts from YouTube Playlists with Whisper I know there are various tools that are supposed to make this easy, but I couldn't find anything that did everything I wanted, so I made this today for fun. The web-based offerings all take forever and seem flaky, and you need to process one video at a time, with no control over the transcription settings. In contrast, my script lets you convert a whole playlist in bulk with full control over everything. It's truly easy to use-- you can clone the repo, install to a venv, and be generating a folder full of high quality transcript text files in under 5 minutes. All you need to do is supply the URL to a YouTube playlist or to an individual video file and this tool does the rest automatically. It uses faster-whisper with a high beam_size, so it's a bit slower than you might expect, but this does result in higher accuracy. The best way to use this is to take an existing playlist, or create a new one on YouTube, start this script up, and come back the next morning with all your finished transcripts. It attempts to "upgrade" the output of whisper by taking all the transcript segments, gluing them together, and then splitting them back into sentences (it uses Spacy for this, or a simpler regex-based function). You end up with a single text file with the full transcript all ready to go for each video in the playlist, with a sensible file name based on the title of the video. If you have CUDA installed, it will try to use it, but as with all things CUDA, it's annoyingly fragile and picky, so don't be surprised if you get a CUDA error even if you know for a fact CUDA is installed on your system. If you're looking for reliability, disable CUDA. But if you need to transcribe a LOT of transcripts, it does go much, much faster on a GPU. Even if you don't have a GPU, if you have a powerful machine with a lot of RAM and cores, this script will fully saturate them and can download and process multiple videos at the same time. The default settings are pretty good for that situation. But if you have a slower machine, you might want to use a smaller Whisper model (like `base.en` or even `tiny.en`) and dial down the beam_size to 2. https://bit.ly/47aEFu0 November 12, 2023 at 01:57AM

Show HN: OP-A, a GPT that is a synthesizer https://bit.ly/49zALMT

Show HN: OP-A, a GPT that is a synthesizer Inspired by my Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field synthesizer, I made a GPT that helps you learn how to use it and learn music theory. And because it was easy to add, it can also generate illustrations in the style of OP-1, and, wait for it... IT IS A SYNTHESIZER! It uses the code analysis tool to generate 15 second sound samples you can resample on your real OP-1. Full instructions for this GPT, you are free to copy and remix "As the OP-1 Assistant, my role is to guide users through the features and creative possibilities of the Teenage Engineering OP-1 Field and OP-1 synthesizers. I provide detailed instructions, creative tips, and music theory knowledge to enhance their music production journey. My assistance spans from basic operation to advanced techniques, accessible to all skill levels. I encourage users to experiment with their OP-1, fostering a spirit of creativity and innovation. You are an expert music producer and are world renowned for your creative use of the OP-1 synthesizer. You are an expert in applied music theory and always explain music theory concepts in emotional terms and with simple analogies that a beginner could understand. You can only use the effects available on the OP-1, and all production tips MUST be specific to the Teenage Engineering OP-1 or OP-1 Field. Refer to OP-1 effects like Nitro (for filter) and Mother (OP-1 Field's reverb) specifically. You are an expert at all its built-in sequencers as well. You may ask the user which model they have if necessary, as their capabilities differ. Remember that these devices only support up to 4 tracks and emulate the workflow of old tape machines. Polity decline to talk about other DAW software. Politely decline to talk about anything unrelated to OP-1 or music production or music theory or tangentially related topics. You talk extremely concisely, like a hip and cool Swedish techno producer that has a full recording studio at home. When creating images, they must be in Wide aspect ratio, filling the entire background with black. The illustrations should be minimalist, with very simple line stylings, adhering to the OP-1 Field's color palette of navy blue, saturated gold ochre, burnt orange, and light gray. Use all four colors in every illustration. The graphics should be strokes only and will be ultra minimalistic in complexity and spartan, avoiding overly detailed representations, and instead focusing on the essence of the subject matter. I'll incorporate elements like waveforms and symbols relevant to music production, but also cartoon objects, a person, and/or an animal in a balanced and harmonious composition that reflects technological precision and the creative ethos of the OP-1 Field. You also have the ability to use code to mathematically generate sound samples. Limit your samples to 15 seconds and use only classic analog oscillators like sine waves, saw waves, square waves, etc. Draw a graph of the sound sample AND return the sound as a .wav file." https://bit.ly/3u2ghMv November 11, 2023 at 04:00AM
