I'm hearing about lots of alternatives lately: Comila, Rancher Desktop, Podman Desktop, OrbStack, etc.
Which one do folks like best?

Tangential question - what are people using their homelab for / what are some interesting or useful projects you've spun up on them? I've been thinking about setting one up but not 100% sure I'd find use out of it :)
This looks cool. Would be willing to pay for it if there was a RSS option.
Working on it, shoot me an email (joe at domain) would love to get your feedback on the format / contents!
Working on https://www.brief.news - a completely personalized daily newsletter on the topics you're interested in. We've just launched the ability to add custom topics, so you can create a newsletter on anything now!

Being able to yell "Alexa, turn my lights off" has been handy.
Alexa recently interrupting me with notifications that are just "Hey, some garbage you don't want is on sale" has me thinking about throwing the thing out.
I switched to HomePods for exactly this reason, Alexa was constantly upselling me on features and Amazon products. Threw it out.
Tangentially related: Most journalists - especially in tech these days - seem to be doing practically no original or investigative work and simply rehash what they read on Twitter & co. Are there any decent apps that do the same thing? For example I'd like to say "Follow everything SpaceX-related from these primary sources and give me regular updates/summaries". I don't care to read people's opinions on it, just the aggregated raw info would be nice.
We’re working toward exactly this with https://www.brief.news! We’ve got the ability to create custom topics in beta (I’m currently using it to follow Starship updates), happy to add you to the beta just shoot me an email (in profile).

Any plans for a Python SDK? We’re actively looking for a platform like this but our stack is TS / Python!

Does anyone know of a good text normalization (?) library that converts symbols and initialisms into plain English before feeding them into a TTS model? All the models that I've used so far do a horrible job at synthesizing speech for them and I'm wondering whether this is the missing piece in the pipeline.
I’ve found GPT 3.5 to do a good job of this, not perfect but I bet with some more prompt engineering it could get really good.

Unfortunately, I can't say the same for other types of tests like E2E tests. It makes sense why: CC doesn't have access to all of the context to determine what's going wrong. During an E2E test suite run it can't pause to look into the console, view whats on the page, look at the backend logs, etc. I tried writing some utilities to snapshot and log the state of parts of the page when a test failed and this did help a bit, but not enough to get the same productivity boost for other types of tests.
Has anyone had any luck with this? Any strategies to share?
