1hr and 5hr is not long enough


Compute to get this quality of text to speech is still quite expensive. Prices will drop as models become smaller. If you need more for now, we do offer Enterprise plans.


You can try https://pod-genie.com which is slightly cheaper but I must admin the voices aren't as good.

Great work Wondercraft team!

Full disclosure - I built pod-genie.


feedback - you put up the paywall too early. let me epxlore the platform a bit before deciding whether or not to pay. i paid for the $5 plan just to explore bc i'm intensely interested in this space but most people would be put off bc your landing page does not do a good job of saying what exactly it is you do and how it works


and i just canceled bc the output isn't good, think you might be using gpt3.5 or something, give us a way to sample/tweak

Please quit judging upward. How many thousands of years have geniuses been hounded by those with smaller brains? How many great sorcerers, magicians, electricians and plumbers have been lost because of this thing where people think they have the right to speak confidently and negatively of men who are of higher caliber?

Maybe geniuses are kooky because of how outnumbered they are by irrational people? Or something else like that.


I don't like to defend a jerk anymore than the next person but I can play the devil's advocate here.

If he's a 10x developer he's going to be a genius. A genius is a person who sees the world in shades of grays. He can't help it. If he's of that caliber then it's built into how his brain works. The comment about him being both a 10x developer and someone who sees in black and white is generally off. However, if he's looking at the work of an average person or even just an above-average person, he will ten to be able to see stronger shades of grays than other people because of his high aptitude. This is possibly why he appears to be someone who sees in black and white.

Overall the author of the article borders on anti-intellectualism... which can easily veer over to anti-semitism.... the frequent opponent of Linus Torvalds.


That sounds kind of ridiculous. Why dont they just leave it in the ground and take pictures of it?


1. because the site is a 3D accumulation, you need to remove layers to access what's below

2. to apply laboratory tech, you're not going to bring an electron microscope or an NMR spectrometer down a pit

3. to keep the artefacts from spoiling further

4. because spoilage of the artefacts will speed up once they're uncovered and exposed to the elements

5. to avoid thefts and secreting of the artefacts in private collections

6. because the state would have to confiscate all dig sites rather than temporary make them off-limits, which people already react to quite badly (especially when the dig site is a construction site which is rather common, look up "rescue archaeology")


The artifacts left in the ground will be around longer than the one put through your laboratory. The one left in the ground will be around for thousands of years. The one brought into your lab will be around for hundreds of years or less.

What you say is only so certain. You dont seem as quick to innovate as others. Why not put a building on top of it and add to its shelter? Everyone will react poorly to eminent domain. So what? Think about the variables.


The one left in the ground will be around for thousands of years.

This is not correct. Looters will take the items long before then, as they have for many thousands of years.


We'll also know a lot less about them. What's the point of finding them and leaving them in the ground? You might as well not look for them in the first place.


You need physical access to the items to perform tests on them to understand where they come from and what they're made of. You also fund the further study of these objects by renting/selling pieces of the collection to museums, curators, and collectors.


If we use imaging equipment we can somehow learn more by using more spatial reasoning. Then you can make more.


Part of any modern archeological dig is documenting the original location of every artifact. From the article:

> ... the three-dimensional location of every last bead photographed and recorded.


Check out what I did in one commit several years ago. Maybe you can get a multi-million dollar idea from it like others have (meteor, app.js, etc)

Somehow people could change the internet to suit this project to fix everything. Single files of jquery on disparate servers that connect to one frontend could transform the web and undo the big problems.

rconsole provides syslog bindings as a drop-in replacement for node's built in console module along with other useful output (revised console)

If you want to forward your logs somewhere remote you can set that up in your syslog config

Lets be honest.. the multi-cultural society brought on by leftists and feminists and foreigners leads people to give up on the future of their culture. These people don't want families with non-Germans and they don't want Germany to be non-German, but they are occupied by foreign cultures and they can't do anything to change it.

Please stop generalizing people using their nationality.

I am a German and I certainly do not agree with your views.


Generalizing is what demographers do. Generalizing based on nationality is not wrong. You are an outlier.


And here on this computer are 4 Germans sitting who also do NOT agree with your opinion – stop saying this xenophobic bullshit.


I am generalizing for the people who don't have families because they see Germany being handed over to foreigners in the future. You do not agree with my opinion? That is fine.

But it is not xenophobic to say that people want to keep German families German. Did you know that China has less than a million immigrants in the entire country? Maybe it is time you respect your people, too. Your group of 4 sounds like some xenophile party.

With this article we have the sexual relations of Germans strewn about and we are expected to just sit back and let the whole world morph the demographics of a nation they aren't a part of. I don't agree with it.


"These people don't want families with non-Germans and they don't want Germany to be non-German"

So they stop having children with other Germans. Makes sense.


Giving up never makes sense. I still speak the truth.


We downvote the continuation of the German family.


And that's Bild's perspective.
