Interesting work. Thanks for open sourcing. It would be nice if the "run" script has a bit of documentation, and maybe an "examples" folder the the run script can work with. From what I can see it seems to search the parent directory? I would want for example `./run <dir_with_tests>` to run all tests my specified project repo.

This too is one of the most interesting integration to me. Allows for getting logical deduction from an external source (e.g. wolfram alpha), which can be interacted with via the natural language interface. (e.g. https://content.wolfram.com/uploads/sites/43/2023/03/sw03242...)

For those interested the original Stephen Wolfram post:

And the release post of their plugin:

It seems they link to a discussion page [1], which references this document (I can't find a published version):

    Computer text line lengths affect reading and learning 
    Peter Orton
    https://cdn.tc-library.org/Edlab/eye-tracking%20article.pdf

But it seems that Peter Orton has published quite a few works in this area [2], [3]. Specifically [3] seems to note that with a less wide text column width readers are not statistically significant faster (but are a bit), but do see that for difficult reading content, the shorter width requires less re-reading then a wider one along with significantly better retention of the contents of the document.

I think this isn't the case for many open source projects I use. The reason I'm drawn to OSS is for the ability to be able to fix it down the line by myself. This also allows me to possibly contribute back those improvements so others can leverage them.

I recently saw this great plugin for OBS which uses Google Speech Recognition api to stream captions to twitch along with your video. Not sure about the quality or delay.

This had the cross origin issue for me. After combining with an above post that uses GM.addElement this looks really nice. Grayscale is the way to go to prevent the site from being more addictive than it needs to be.

It would really help if the author had a list of "features" on the github project. It is a bit difficult to figure out what exact functionality the project supports.

I agree with this. What happens when I got to my bank with this extension? I would rather have either what another commenter suggested (a bookmark) or be able to see the source. I assume they use the "activeTab" permission to give temporary access to the current tab?

From a quick look, it seems to just request access to all pages? I am not sure if chrome really has a elegant way to handle per-website requests (as compared to per-tab).

My thought is why don't the authors use github pages to host their static site with their links to a dedicated server with an unmetered link since their whole project is CC0. Downloading assets doesn't need to be low latency, thus I don't think the caching spatially near the user is important. Having a user login for patreon is something that would be missing and require some more thought I admit.

I think quite a lot of other people have mentioned in the thread that they are getting a lot of other "benefits" from using multiple services, but I don't see how these help solve the problem of data delivery besides taking advantage of the Cloudflare + Backblaze alliance which is $31 if their main website is a static one.
