This is ridiculously fun. Congrats on the launch! I took inspiration from “There I Ruined It” and grabbed lyrics from various popular songs to have the AI sing them in the style of other artists. It sometimes took a few attempts, but it honestly did a great job. You got a chuckle out of my friends and family. Also loved that I didn’t have to enter a credit card in order to try it out.

Is this limited to PDFs or could the same chunking and parsing be applied to plain text, html, and other input file types?

Couldn’t this be addressed by standardizing around a protocol? That way client and server are decoupled and existing clients can work with new media server projects.
jsf01 · 2 years ago
There is some interoperability between other clients today. For example, I have a Jellyfin server but in order to connect to it on my Apple TV I use the Infuse Pro app. I think that works more because of a standardized file structure that each app creates its own indexes for, so an actual protocol that they share would still be an improvement.

There are some really cool geoguessr metas that aren't as much about memorizing the street view cars that I love. (Although, a few car metas are interesting such as the handful of African countries that required a security follow car to tail the Google car, or the “Kenya snorkel” on the more off road capable street view vehicle for Kenya.) One of these is that there is a geostationary satellite just south of Texas that most US satellite dishes will point to, so if you can find a house with a satellite dish on it then you can combine its angle with your compass and get a rough sense of the US region you are in.

This is unintentionally a great ad for perceptual color spaces. I found it easier to ignore the color and just look at the percentage changes after a while when zeroing in on a guess. I wonder if that would be different in a game of Guess My OKLCH!

The Vercel IPv6 feature request & surrounding discussion makes for frustrating reading: https://github.com/orgs/vercel/discussions/47

What is it about ipv6 that is so difficult for hosting providers to support?

Are the testimonials also AI?

My current setup is Stellarium + Clear Outside + windy.app and with that you really do need to know ahead of time which objects are visible for your particular location at that time of year or spend a while browsing. Your app looks amazing for my main use cases, but still lacks some information that I rely on. First, it is useful to know the direction of the cloud coverage throughout the night to be able to compare it with where the object you’re shooting will be. I also like to know the brightness (magnitude) of each object to help with planning. The last thing would be to get a list of recommendations rather than using lists of favorites. “What deep sky object do I not know about that today would be perfect for shooting?” is a question I have only been able to answer well with the ASIAR’s list of suggestions, manually curated calendars online that are not tuned to my location, or social media. It seems like you might have all the data to do a better job than all of those options in answering that question. Super cool app! Excited to see where it goes.

As a non-native speaker, I have never heard of dissaving. Is it a common word?
jsf01 · 2 years ago
As a native speaker, it was my first time seeing the word, too. Not common at all.

Having a feature to summarise the website would be a much better than the first two. As I constantly find myself wishing for such a feature :/
jsf01 · 2 years ago
I’ve been working on a project [1] to do just that from within a Chrome extension. The idea was that as an extension, it could make use of the context menu and feel more like a native feature of the browser. I’m always hesitant to link to my things from comments but in this case I think it’s a perfect fit for what you’re describing.
