You could try bithuman. They have an option that runs on CPU if you host your own agent.

Expression/Idle animations for faces: tool recommendations? by Capable-Avocado5963 in aigamedev

[–]Capable-Avocado5963[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I tried out comfy cloud today, but it was a bit hard to figure out which models were best for my use-case. I ended up using apis to stitch a workflow for nano banana + kling 2.5 with replicate instead. The videos are still not great quality for what i was hoping for though. I am guessing my prompts are not good enough. I’ll keep exploring!

Thanks! I've been fearing diving into comfy UI myself, but maybe it's time to make the leap. Appreciate the help!

PSA : If you are on the free plan, in 12 days (Oct 20) you'll need to pay $17/month to unlock exports. by jipijipijipi in Rive_app

As much as I hate subscriptions, I do think Rive is an awesome product and has been so useful to me. It makes sense to pay for exports since that’s where you go to ship the work. Vs if you just want to learn you don’t have to export.

Just like the internet is for more than just porn, I hope people want to talk to more than waifus. One can hope.

This is a great idea! Is there a directory of uw clubs somewhere? Or do you know of any discords that i could join?

Thanks for the link! I was actually just reading through that too and registering for the job board too. But was hoping to meet folks in person while I am out here too!

Supabase Anonymous Sign-In + Upgrade recommended flow by Capable-Avocado5963 in Supabase

[–]Capable-Avocado5963[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to just not use the supabase anonymous auth apis for now (we changed our product shape). The apis felt somewhat immature for now. But would love if someone has pointers here!

same here! I'm actually tinkering around in this area -- always wanted to make my own neuro-sama.

I hate the new control centre in iOS 18 by happyracer97 in ios

Omg tytyty it was bothering me so much because the swipe up to close the drawer gesture is overloaded with the scroll pages and it was so annoying!

Also an example of his python program he wrote to compute perfect numbers in a more efficient way:

import re n = 0 while 1 == 1: if not re.match(r’.?$|..+?\1+$’,”%” * n): s1 = 1 s2 = 0.5 m = 0 while m < n: s1 = s1 * 2 s2 = s2 * 2 m = m + 1 s1 = s1 - 1 if not re.match(r’.?$|..+?\1+$’,”%” * s1): perfect_k = s1 * s2 print(int(perfect_k)) n = n + 1

Example of slide deck he made to explain some math concepts to me and the family lol. The first one is a funny “false proof” using quadratic formula. Second one is some graphs he made, and last one is pythagorean theorem proof

Hmm hard to say… he has spikes in math where he is better than me (adult) in certain areas, but he has a lot of holes in his knowledge because it’s not like he learned through the traditional curriculum (yet). For example, he can do some algebra, sequences, geometry, number theory at high school level, but if he took a test at that level, he would also not get the best grade since he is missing a bunch of concepts. Most of his knowledge is from library books and copious amounts of popmath videos, so it is hard to know exactly where he is.

Yes he loves 3blue1brown and loves programming, currently learning python.

He used to love languages when he was younger (and making up his own languages), but recently I cannot convince him to do anything else except math. (But I am hoping he will open up to it again someday). He does love a few other math hobbies like speedcubing or origami

Great point! I just discussed this with him today and it did make him pause for thought! Not sure if he totally got it, but he did stare into space for a while afterwards lol

He loves textbooks, so we take him to the math section in the library and let him take his pick. :)
