  1. @cococello I'm good! Ruby is a good choice for dipping a toe in.
  2. @amyhoy Hmm, with you on the singing but a little harsh on Dylan's guitar.
  3. @cococello Have fun!
  4. This kind of happens a lot when you test voice recognition/test-to-speech software on multiple devices, but it is hilarious EVERY TIME.
  5. Hilariously, an installation of AllEars on one test device just started a dialogue with an installation of AllEars on another test device.
  6. Berlin's going to rip out its 19th-century gaslights instead of just refitting them with LED bulbs? #seikurzsichtig #seiberlin
  7. @rjpaoletti Ack!
  8. @spolsky I'm disturbed that one of the words is "develope" -- what does SO have against the geekiest creatures of the savannah?
  9. Ever since I replaced the old 10-cup coffee machine with one that only makes 8 cups, things have gotten oddly Darwinian in our kitchen.
  10. RT @allhours: The AllHours app lets you find the best time for everyone on the call, no matter what timezone they're in itunes.com/apps/allhours
  11. OpenEars 1.01 is out, bugfix release primarily relating to LanguageModelGenerator: politepix.com/openears
  12. @catshive Agreed.
  13. @stuffrosssays Not at the moment, but I know that at least one developer has gotten this working as a modification.
  14. @jackstonedev Thanks for the kind words! I'm glad it's helping you.
  15. @jackstonedev Nice!
  16. Please allow me to introduce SpeexKit, a framework for Speex on the iPhone from Politepix: politepix.com/speexkit
  17. Other Berliners working in one of Telekom's permanent neglect zones: what do you do for bandwidth? 200kb/s upload is doing my head in.
  18. I never knew until now that it was possible to spend an entire day reading a contract.
  19. @heyguysiamjohn OK, I think if you try the main page link again you'll get a reasonable speed.
