• Windows NT on 600MHz machine opens apps instantly. What happened?

  I use WinMerge[1] a lot, and it's always impressed me how it immediately opens to a useable state. So it's absolutely still possible to write Windows software that can open instantly. I think the biggest issue, which multiple other comments have identified, is that people just don't care. Apps open fast enough these days, and no one is pushing back on developers to improve their app's startup performance. [1]:... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Two HDDs that should have identical data on them have a 50GB discrepancy, can't figure out where the files are

  I’ve used winmerge before and had good results comparing drives. Source: about 1 year ago

• Program that deletes files that match an MD5 hash?

  However, if you're looking to compare files that already exist, you can use something like WinMerge. Source: about 1 year ago

• Mirroring my 12 TB Drive. What do I need to check to ensure all data is transferred without corruption?

  I use Robocopy to preserve the original timestamps (using the /COPY:DAT and /DCOPY:DAT arguments) and WinMerge for doing a subsequent binary compare of the source/destination (sorting the results column by which files are different). Source: about 1 year ago

• Compare two Salesforce exports

  I haven't used this one but for example https://winmerge.org. Source: over 1 year ago

• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  Check out Mochi if you’re looking for an alternative. It probably ticks most of your boxes already. https://mochi.cards/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards

  No one has mentioned it yet, so I'll drop this alternative: https://mochi.cards/ Much prettier than Anki, has a simpler algorithm that doesn't require rating difficulty, and has lots of the same features. I'm a subscriber just because of the cloud sync - wish I could self-host but I'm happy to support the developer. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• WhisperSpeech – An Open Source text-to-speech system built by inverting Whisper

  Not OP, but I develop Mochi [0] which is a spaced repetition flash card app that has text-to-speech and a bunch of other stuff built in (transcription, dictionaries, etc.) that you might be interested in. [0] https://mochi.cards. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• How to Learn Fast

  You can try Mochi (not my site) if you don't like Anki. Source: 9 months ago

• Some notes on local-first development

  I built Mochi [0] from the ground up to be local first. The architecture is built around pouchdb for the local database which syncs to and from a remote couchdb database. It's been a challenge to implement and in hindsight I wonder if it was even worth it. Unfortunately neither of these technologies are very widely used any more (if they ever were). I am glad there is a lot of development and research in this area... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago
