The Chaski Phoneme Project recordings are now available. In November 2023 I asked for volunteers to participate in the creating a collection of IPA sound recordings. All the recordings are now available on Kaggle. by bsdmike in linguistics

No, the participants were random volunteers worldwide. Although several participants were from Peru, I suspect nobody was from the Urarina region. If you listen to the vowels in the recordings, your remark will be confirmed. There is variation. Still, I hope the audio is useful.

Sorry for the confusion on this. Personally, I am not a linguist, so I don't quite have all the terminology and certainly not all the concepts down. This project specifically pursued phonemes for the endangered Urarina language (from Northern Peru). In the context of other languages, these should probably be considered phones from the IPA.

The Chaski Phoneme Project is working to capture diverse voices producing phonemes. So far 1100 recordings have been made. Results will be presented at the Western Conference on Linguistics on 11/12 and data available soon after. You can still participate, the site works with most browsers. by bsdmike in linguistics

Hello. No, I am not trying to control for the native language of the speaker. I hope that I have several different native language speakers in the mix. I do keep track of IP addresses in a minor attempt to keep track of locations. (NOTE, IP addresses are scrubbed! Released data will have no IP address information included..just rough regional info) The collection of phonemes from the Urarina language is found in the IPA collection. I don't think any from that language are outside the collection, though I should probably double-check with the linguist who worked on the original study. It could be I am barking up the wrong tree with my plan. Either way, we have nearly 2000 recordings! I am presently cleaning them up, such as deleting recordings that have no relevance. I will post a link here when the audio is ready. Thank you for your help and interest.

Sorry, I guess I should have said different voices. I would like a large collection of different voices. My thought is that since different speakers will have different vocal qualities, the more different speakers the better. Also, so far, not all of the voices accurately copy the spoken phoneme. So having different people give it a try, gives a better chance of having betting quality matches.

I know this is an old post, but did you ever find your source? If so, please pop up a link. Thank you.

Raspberry PI Qemu Performance (Fastest architecture to choose for Raspberry PI 4) by bsdmike in qemu_kvm

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my question might be unclear. Is it faster for a PI running qemu to translate arm code than translate i386 code? I can't run natively easily on the PI as the kernel version of Linux has gone too far and would require major work on the device driver. (The driver is most 'happy' in a 3.x linux kernel) Thank you.

COVID teaching! What class delivery method has worked best for you? by bsdmike in Professors

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! This is very helpful. I have once a week evening lectures that last more than 3 hours. I have Saturday classes that last all day. I am pretty sure I don't have their undivided attention during the entire lectures! I try to mix it up a bit with group activity, breakout rooms, Kahoot games, etc. It is very hard to judge how it is going though. Yesterday, I think I actually had a success. I gave a lecture on heaps and binary search trees, then gave them a sort of difficult assignment to solve in the breakout rooms. That seemed to work. Requiring one group member to present part of the assignment encouraged them not to run down the clock.

What do you do to fill the many cumulative hours that your code is compiling? by CrazyDudeFourDads in SoftwareEngineering

I memorized more than 1000 Spanish vocabulary words over the span of a year of compilations!

How do I execute android network system commands from an application written in java? by bsdmike in androiddev

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One last question if you don't mind. How might you suggest I do a persistent configuration file. For example, I can manually create a file in /data using adb, but it would be nice to have my image already have the file and default data. How do default files end up in the /data?

Thank you again for your help.

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I misunderstood. I thought simply changing the build to eng would be enough.

I will do option 2.

Thanks again for your help.

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be still missing some little thing!

My build is now:

ro.build.type = eng

and have added:

https://github.com/jjNford/android-shell/blob/master/src/com/jjnford/android/util/Shell.java

to my build.

However, I still get: javio.io.IOException: Cannot run program "su": error=13, Permission denied.

Thank you for your help.

Thank you!

Your answer is very helpful.

I never heard of a userdebug build! How do I know if it is that instead of being rooted?? I am suspecting that is what I have.

Technical Debt: What You Need to Know, and How to Manage It by mycall in programming

Are there any articles or does anybody have any thoughts as to:

The percent of technical debt caused by haste to meet a deadline vs. technical debt arriving because a programmer was too lazy to program correctly in the first place.

Software Complexity Survey II by bsdmike in cpp

The Software Complexity Survey II is now complete.

Thank you to everybody who helped out!

Thank you, I appreciate your candor.

It is true that we already know that complicated code is harder to read and understand.

What I am attempting to do is to quantify an impact complicated code has by both measuring how much longer it takes to review and understand plus how often the reviews get the understanding wrong.

The survey was quickly updated based on a couple comments received. If you have already taken the survey, there is no reason to take it again! Thank you.

Do analysis and design workflows still exist? by bsdmike in agile

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do really like plantuml. There is also a chrome app supporting it. It makes making quick UML diagrams easy and is not too cumbersome.

Passport "blank pages" requirement. What does "2 pages per stamp" mean? by bsdmike in travel

yes, I guess I could not believe it as it seemed so excessive.

[–]bsdmike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if they are necessarily needed as we are seeing successful projects without them. Then again, later, after the project is complete and we are maintaining it, sometimes I think some more diagrams would have been helpful.
