• How to Speak Fluent English?

  Try the Anki system…there was someone who learned over 10 languages with that method: https://apps.ankiweb.net/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Duolingo Sucks, Now What?

  People overthink language learning. Use Language Transfer[0] for lessons and Anki[1] for flashcards. Both are completely free. [0]: https://www.languagetransfer.org/ [1]: https://apps.ankiweb.net/. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  This is confusing to me. The GitHub repo[1] links to the AnkiWeb website[2] which offers the $25 iOS app as one of the download options. In what exact way was Anki hijacked here? [1] https://github.com/ankitects/anki. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Suggest to me some uses for reWASD

  My main use case is for managing my Azeron Cyborg profiles. And recently I have been experimenting with using the mobile controller feature to help do Anki spaced repetition reviews. Source: 5 months ago

• Mycroft – open-source voice assistant

  The key feature I haven't seen any of these opensource projects implement is microphone response coordination: If you have multiple microphones and speakers, which one responds? My google home's are terrible at this: often one in another room responds, but at least it's only one. When I tried to run Genie (https://genie.stanford.edu/) I had multiple devices responding simultaneously. It was a disaster. For me,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Show HN: I record myself on audio 24x7 and use an AI to process the information

  It's incredibly easy to do (caveat - at least if you're familiar with software dev already). Most thermostats are literally just digital thermometers that control a relay that turns the furnace/ac on and off. A simple arduino (or much cheaper IC) can easily do the same thing if you wire it in. And then on the software side... there's several large, open-source projects that exist in this space and provide nice api... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What's the biggest missing piece of the puzzle in the self-hosted universe?

  Because there's surely enough software available, right (i.e. susi.ai, Mycroft, Kalliope, DeepSpeech, leon, Jasper, Vosk or Genie)? Source: about 2 years ago

• Thanks I Hate Google And Alexa

  On the home assistants, it’s actually a cool solution. What they do is actually use a local ML algorithm to recognize the alert word (hey Google, Alexa, etc.) and only when they hear it do they stream the audio to their inference servers. There are things like almond which is entirely self hosted option I’d like to move to eventually. Source: about 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What is the Duck Duck Go of smart speakers?

  I think a key feature of a smart speaker is the voice assistant. The only privacy aware I know of is Almond (AKA Genie) from Stanford[1]. I don't think there is any commercial speaker using Almond out there. However, Im betting you could DIY it. [1] https://genie.stanford.edu/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
