We can! At Kyutai, we released a real-time, on-device speech translation demo last week. For now, it is working only for French to English translation, on an iPhone 16 Pro: https://x.com/neilzegh/status/1887498102455869775

We released inference code and weights, you can check our github here: https://github.com/kyutai-labs/hibiki

Good work. The delay seems to be around 5 secods. This is a step in the right direction. I'm wondering how much more real-time can we push it.

Even if the math of the arc length was correct (and you don't need to be a math professor to figure out it isn't) there's another logic misstep.

Implied in the caption is that the speed is the same at all heights (given that an increase in distance is implied as an increase in time.)

This is again obvious nonsense - speed is a function of thrust versus drag, and it's safe to say that both of those are affected by air density.

It becomes even less true once one gets to space. There height is a function of speed which means that to "catch up" something in front of you, you need to slow down.

Can you expand on this? My brain is not connecting the dots.

What the article seems to be highlighting is _affirming the consequent_ fallacy whereby people deem you as evil when they observe you doing something they deem as wrong. Instead they should actually confirm that you too deem the act as wrong before they label you as evil.

Having to deal with police four times a day on average on the part of the journey through Croatia is insane. I’d have given up and flown to the next country.

This surprised me too. I am from Croatia, and while there is a fair bit of discrimination against anyone that's different in the country, I am very surprised about this magnitude of it. I'm curious about the route he took. Some road types are illegal to run along, and coincidentally the one going from south to north along the coast is illegal to be on for pedestrians to my knowledge. I wouldn't be surprised if any pedestrian was stopped on that road, it's dangerous to run where the speed limit is over 100 km/h.

I gave firenvim a shot a few times in the past. The pain points for me were competing shortcuts between extensions (e.g. vimium) and too small realestate in most text area prompts where firenvim activated. I believe the messaging then was that you could just copy paste your nvim config over, and firenvim would use it in the browser. While I think that's true, what makes a good config in the terminal is not the same as what makes a good config in small text area prompts on most websites.

EDIT: I remembered another issue. I'm not able to use it at work because my employer doesn't allow extensions that access all data on a website.
