I use dictation tools like "Handy" that use local models to turn speech to text. I've got a fork/PR that adds screen annotation so you can say things like "help me understand 'this' or move 'this' to the left" and it'll put both text+annotation into agents wth a single key. Related

Lately, I've been running a local fork of the Android emulation frontend Cannoli, you can see the changes here: https://t.co/wCaJerqK3A I hope to get some some of these changes landed upstream, but in the meantime, it's so awesome to have a customized launcher that totally meets my niche needs like this. Thankful that the GPL exists to enable this type of work and delightful use of software. Related

Really wish Hacker News would fork into "LLM news" and "all the other Hacker News". It's worse now than it was with crypto during the crypto bubble.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
