2021 Happiness Hack: Start a new hobby you suck at but which has huge scope for improvement.  

"The directional nature of happiness is one reason it's a good idea to have a sport or hobby that leaves you plenty of room to improve every year"

@lynchy010 @readwise Awesome job Adam. I'm absolutely loving it! I feel like my highlights are now substantially more accessible and actionable.

Of course that’s your contention. You just heard about DeepSeek two days ago. Just got done watching some 40-minute deep dive—Deirdre Bosa, probably. You’re going to be talking about how this complicates things for the hyperscalers and how NVIDIA stock traded down 15%.

Last month, I had plans to start a community for Amsterdam makers/builders/doers in tech. It turned out @IronBrands16 had done all the heavy lifting, and an awesome community with great vibes already existed!🥳 Looking forward to the next edition of Internet Friends on 31st Oct🙌

@jackwshepherd Reading is one of my favourite hobbies, but reading academic papers or legal documents is one of my least favourite activities!

@KevinBenSmith Amazing, can't wait to use on @sivers new book!

How to build the world's fastest voice AI bot:

- Self-host speech-to-text, LLM inference, and text-to-speech all together in the same container/cluster.
- Route audio over the internet using WebRTC and edge networking.
- Configure timings for voice activity detection, phrase endpointing, and other parts of the pipeline to optimize for latency. (There are trade-offs to doing this!)

Here's a LLama 3 voice bot that has voice-to-voice response times of ~500ms.

We used @DeepgramAI's STT and TTS for this bot, and everything is hosted on @cerebriumai's serverless GPU infrastructure.

[Peter Duffy @PDffy]

@voicenotesai Nice, looking forward to testing this out!
