nemima··on Ask HN: What's the current best local/open speech-to-speech setup?
This is definitely the sort of use case we aim to support! I would need to check about Hindi specifically, but we have several bilingual models already with more to come:

Drop me an email at mattn@speechmatics.com and we can chat about further details :)

nemima··on Ask HN: What's the current best local/open speech-to-speech setup?
If propeietary/SaaS fits your use case I can reccomend Speechmatics. Has a wider range of languages than a lot of the competition: https://speechmatics.com

(Full disclosure I'm an engineer there)

nemima··on Ask HN: What Speaker Diarization tools should I look into?
Hi, I'm an engineer at Speechmatics. Our speech-to-text software handles speaker diarization very reliably, and we're a go-to choice for non-English languages. https://www.speechmatics.com/

How long is the audio file? If it's under 2 hours, you can upload the file and transcribe it with diarization for free using our web portal: https://portal.speechmatics.com/jobs/create/batch

Hope it helps for your use case! If it does, and you encounter any issues, drop us an email at devrel@speechmatics.com :)

nemima··on Ask HN: What is your “I don't care if this succeeds” project?
I made a web app which gives you a breakdown of an image's color distribution. Lets you pick color schemes from a subset of the image's colors (specifically, those which form a convex hull, when visualizing the colors in RGB color space).

https://image2palette.app

(Note: There are still some issues with showing images on iOS browsers)

I mainly made this to satisfy my own curiosity. I had the idea of forming a convex polytope based on an image's colors, and I thought it would be cool to be able to explore that in a responsive way through a graphical UI. Also it was a great way to learn Svelte and ThreeJS, which in many ways work rather well together! If anyone is curious to see the source code, I'm happy to link it too.
