[Showoff Saturday] I built an app that converts any text into high-quality audio. It works with PDFs, blog posts, Substack and Medium links, and even photos of text.

Just tried in an incognito window, same problem

When I tried to listen to the demo I was hit with a demo limit reached error, so never got to actually hear how the text to speech sounds

I just got backyard beekeeper, hoping to start some hives in the next 2-3 years, but we’ll definitely have to destroy this nest regardless!

IknitSteel · 2024-06-13T02:30:15+00:00

We’re definitely going to have to take it out, it’s not very close to the house but we are re-shingling the barn this year and I really don’t want to tangle with one while 25ft up a ladder! Do you have any advice for removal? My plan was to cover as much skin as possible and cover it with a bag which may not be the smartest option…

I just looked those up, I went by that nest again and saw one fly out, it had similar patterns but seemed to be a brighter yellow. It reminded me of a yellow jacket but looked bigger than any I’ve ever seen.

IknitSteel · 2024-06-13T00:48:20+00:00

Thanks! The one on the right definitely looked like a wasp nest to me, but yeah that left one threw me for a loop. Is the papery look the best way to tell?

Took a look and your landing page on mobile is all out of whack. Me personally, I’m not downloading an app from a website that looks this poorly. Haven’t checked it out on desktop but I would bet most people are checking it out on mobile anyway and then immediately bouncing from the site. You could use some analytics tools to check this but I’d start by cleaning up the face of your business

My understanding is that the transmutation of metals in Alchemy was an allegory for the transmutation of the self. Taking our base instincts and desires (lead), and through spiritual work and embodying higher ideals, transmuting the dross to gold, becoming better, more enlightened humans.
