Hey @finnvoorhees
I just came across https://github.com/finnvoor/yap

I'm not very familiar with Apple's AI/LLM frameworks, but do you know whether this could be extended to support speaker recognition (aka diarization ) ?

I'm coming from the "podcasts needs a transcript" angle 😅

Today Melissa Lewis over on BlueSky pointed out that the font used in the infamous "You wouldn't steal a car" anti-piracy campaign was actually designed by Just van Rossum, whose brother, Guido, created the Python programming language (bsky.app/profile/melissa.news/post/3ln7hx5rhcj2v)

She also pointed out that the font had been cloned and released illegally for free under the name "XBAND Rough". Naturally, it would be hilarious if the anti-piracy campaign actually turned out to have used this pirated font, so I went sleuthing and quickly found a PDF from the campaign site with the font embedded (

So I chucked it into FontForge and yep, turns out the campaign used a pirated font the entire time!

TIL: The 2000s piracy PSA used a font designed by the fantastic Just van Rossum, whose brother Guido created the Python programming language. https://fontsinuse.com/uses/67480/piracy-it-s-a-crime-psa

Your best people leave when you slow them down. People don’t quit because of free snacks, fancy titles, or even salary. Your best people quit when they feel like they can’t move. The most ambitious, high-impact team members need autonomy, speed, and clear direction. Take any of

@atpfm , I run a somewhat large German tech podcast (~1.5M downloads these past years). We are currently looking into expanding into coverage of tech events (Google I/O, WWDC, MS Ignite, ...). How did you end up getting press access to WWDC? Is that something one needs to apply for? Or do _they_ reach out to you out of the blue?
that's beautiful
