Transcribe VS Lobster

📋 This means I should have prepared a transcript of the audio I've included above. Have you ever typed up your own transcript? It takes a good amount of effort and time, and a helpful transcription app, that my clients would probably not pay for. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

To start, I have a $20/ yr "manual" transcription license for Transcribe by Wreally. Once I saw that other folks were interested in transcripts too, I set up an automatic transcription for the first episode - it tends to work alright, but also needs some manual revising and editing after it finishes processing.

This is the main reason we still have a local-only mode in our transcription web app [1]. We play the audio/video file directly from the user’s computer, and we use local storage to store typed text in users’ computers. This way no transcription data leaves users’ computers. We’ve been working on it for over a decade and we did add machine transcription recently, but I still find a surprising number of users use... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago

I think lobster does this. "Compile time reference counting / lifetime analysis / borrow checker."[1] "Reference Counting with cycle detection at exit, 95% of reference count ops removed at compile time thanks to lifetime analysis."[1] [1] https://strlen.com/lobster/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

I think the ability to open a window and do graphical stuff is actually pretty underrated in core language functionality. There's a few game-oriented programming languages like Lobster that put windowing and graphics in the core language functionality, and I think it's pretty neat. The biggest downside is that it's a lot to bite off, because you'll probably want to have standardized API functionality for a whole... Source: about 1 year ago

There is another language, Lobster, that uses lifetime analysis like Rust, but IIUC infers lifetimes completely automatically. It looks like the idea is still experimental - I'm interested to see how it goes. Source: about 1 year ago

I'm keeping an eye on Lobster though. It fixes most of Python's problems. It's way faster, has proper static typing, the import system is sane, etc. Source: about 1 year ago

Lobster (https://strlen.com/lobster/) appears to at least do lifetime analysis to reduce refcounting. I'm not sure about automatic interior mutability. I feel like there's a keyword here that can help find other compilers with similar features. Source: over 1 year ago
