SERINDA – Things that keep me up at night

I haven't been sleeping much the last few months.  Now, the last week making this much interactive progress I'm sleeping less.  Imagine spending the last 17 years working on pieces of a project that were slowly coming along in multiple programming languages and had kind of worked, but now all coming together much better than …

SERINDA – another success

Today was another successful testing phase. I had a lot of issues with Docker. It initially worked.  Then didn't.  The Windows 10 machine I have has 4GB RAM and 16 of Opteron which Docker doesn't care it says 4GB RAM means it won't start up.  So Docker was out.

Picovoice/Porcupine evaluation – that’s a no from me

https://picovoice.ai/ For non-commercial purposes it seemed like it was quite the boon for my project. It took about an hour for me to figure out what I needed to do between a mac and linux machine. Not that it took an hour to figure out Porcupine - the demo video was 3 minutes! I wanted …
