New open-source speech-to-text model Moonshine “returns results faster and more efficiently than the current state of the art, OpenAI’s Whisper, while matching or exceeding its accuracy” one of its creators says. “Key improvements are an architecture that offers an overall 1.7x speed boost compared to Whisper, and a flexibly-sized input window.”

When I was working full time, it irked me no end when one of my retired friends or relatives talked about how “busy” they were. Um, really? Unless they had caregiving responsibilities or medical issues, how could they possibly tell those of us trying to squeeze the rest of our lives around 40+ hours of work responsibilities they were “busy”?
Now I’m on the other side. . . .

Bipartisan sponsorship of a bill to improve US indoor air quality 🎉🎉🎉
One of the most important things we can do to protect people from respiratory illnesses is improve ventilation and filtration in workplaces & public buildings.
I'm lucky - my company's headquarters has great indoor ventilation (I’ve taken my CO2 monitor to check). But lots of people aren’t.

"We misunderstand the nature of patriarchy if we think that merely having power and influence are verboten for women. Women are allowed to have power, so long as that power is deployed in ways that are not threatening to a patriarchal order [such as VP to a male president]" - Kate Manne in "Women Can Have a Little Power, as a Treat"

tidycensus creator Kyle Walker: “I've updated my ‘Mapping Immigrant America’ project, an interactive dot-density map of the US foreign-born population, to the latest 2018-2022 ACS data.
“Explore here: https://personal.tcu.edu/kylewalker/immigrant-america/#7.88/41.806/-87.548
“Advancements in #rstats, tidycensus, and Mapbox since I first designed the map nearly a decade ago now mean the data pipeline can run in a single morning, so future maps like this are straightforward to make”
