A fork of OnlyOffice with some big names behind it who want to make it easier to build and contribute to, great. Yet LibreOffice seems to remain the only FOSS office solution with native apps (although they aren't particularly good).

My dog doesn't react to familiar voices over the phone at all. The compression and reproduction of audio, while fine for humans, definitely doesn't work for her animal ears.


Have you tried it with uncompressed audio? Have all the times when your dog could recognize your voice also been times when you were within smelling range?


It's pretty hard to avoid uncompressed audio. Even if it's PCM, there's almost always a lowpass filter, either explicitly in the input/output processing, by the sampling rate, or from the physical limits of the mic and speaker.

Everything is tuned for human audible range, so dogs will miss out on the higher frequency stuff. Humans did ok with POTS@8kHz with a 300-3400Hz band pass filter though. The internet says dog hearing goes up to ~ 60 kHz; most audio equipment tuned for humans won't go anywhere near that, but probably cleanly carying high frequency up to the limit of the equipment would be better than psychoacoustic compression tuned for humans.


Could also be the speaker and volume.

No image in the readme, bummer.


Why are programmers so bad at this? It's never been easier to take and share screenshots, but a lot of technical people would rather write and have you read 500 words than post a single screenshot. Boggles my mind.


Maybe it blurs on a level lower than what the screenshot can capture


Classic - brand new blog post:

> We’re hiring engineers.

Careers page:

> Sorry, no job openings at the moment.


It's the Anthropic careers page that you're likely looking for now:

https://www.anthropic.com/jobs?team=4050633008


Is it just me or does this page keep jumping back to the top when I try to scroll?


Same on iOS. It was probably vibe coded.


It's doing that for me as well (desktop Safari).


It's doing it to me as well in Brave on macOS.


Maybe the engineers are Claude agents.


Zig has the concept of illegal behavior, of which a subset is unchecked illegal behavior - basically undefined behavior, but if evaluated at comptime, it results in a compile error. The documentation also states that most illegal behavior is safety-checked unless you use the ReleaseFast or ReleaseSmall optimization modes (and don't enable safety checks for individual blocks).


Generics though


I'm sensing a pinch of sarcasm


How does Zig's compilation and codegen compare to TPDE? The claim is that it's 10-20x faster than LLVM with -O0 but with limitations.


Speed feels even faster than 20x and debug mode code runs ok. Don’t know about assembly quality difference


Maybe a good use case for AI to help with a quick transition?


I liked Zulip a lot until that Flutter rewrite. Maybe it's more accessible now but the new look is not for me. I believe the app navigation is largely unchanged, and still doesn't quite feel right. I love the topic-based model nonetheless.
