Sounds exciting! Biology and medicine are one of the most useful areas to benefit from AI.

I am working on tcx-ls. It is quite niche, TCX is an XML file format used in sports tracking devices. Tcx-ls is a CLI that displays the information contained in the TCX file (like accumulated time and distance, etc.) in a more user-friendly way. I hope it is useful for many people.

I like the idea of a books list. This gives me new inspiration for books that I could read. Other languages like Spanish and French would also be great. :)

Thanks for your candid feedback. I copied the data manually into the CMS. I am looking at alternatives to that in the future, there are some projects that try to automate querying Wikipedia data. Have not tried them out, though. Any experience with that?
Re:SpiceNice – An Open Source Spice Database

All right, thanks for your feedback. Correct, currently this is only content from Wikipedia, although in a more structured form. I hope to expand and improve content over time (maybe even with help of a community).
One idea is also linking from recipes to the SpiceNice database and getting more information about spices in that way.

Re:From Text to Talk: Analyzing Open Source TTS Alternatives
on Wednesday October 23, 2024 @05:08AM (#41923239)
All the big cloud providers like AWS and Azure have an API for the sythesis of text into the spoken word. But there are also young startups like ElevenLabs that offer their innovative solutions in this space. A third option is open source software for those who either do not want to pay for the service of TTS (text-to-speech) or do need on-device TTS. Also, privacy reasons can play a role here.

That sounds interesting. No, I have not tried the Strapi Cloud. Currently, the pricing of self-hosting is more my budget :)

The headless open source content management system (CMS) Strapi can be dockerized and deployed via Docker to the cloud. In this article I want to show how to deploy Strapi to the Digital Ocean App Platform as a Docker container.
Re:How to Automatically Convert COBOL to Go
on Thursday July 25, 2024 @10:28AM (#41069077)
Although COBOL can be considered a legacy language, there are still billions of lines of COBOL in production. Modernizing these systems which are costly to run and maintain is a challenge. One solution to this issue is a COBOL to Go transpiler that I want to present in this article.

Integrate Go Library into a JavaScript Webpage with WebAssembly
Re:Integrate Go Library into a JavaScript Webpage with WebAssembly

With WebAssembly you can integrate different programming languages together. This opens up new possibilities to use great libraries written in one language in another different platform. In this article I want to show how to integrate a Go library for sentence tokenization in a JavaScript webpage.
Query World Factbook with GraphQL

The World Factbook by the U.S. government contains a plethora of facts of all of the countries of this world. Up until now it was not easy to query and visualize the contained data. The open source project chi-country-facts is a GraphQL API and GUI of the World Factbook.

For the technically inclined, I did this treemap with the open source D3.js (https://d3js.org/d3-hierarchy/treemap) JavaScript library. Great library btw!

Yes, more like regions, I stuck to the definition of the World Factbook, where I got my data from. Green for example is Africa, blue Europe, red Asia, but there is also "Middle East", "North America", "South America" and "Southeast Asia", "Oceania".

Re:Control Zigbee Lights with a Go Web App
on Wednesday March 20, 2024 @04:55AM (#39764128)
Normally, when buying a home light that you want to control electronically, you need to install custom software. But with the ZigBee protocol and the RaspBee II gateway, you can use compatible devices and open source software. In this article I will show you how to add a custom Go REST service to the stack.
