Memory is such an odd thing: not having thought of it in years, I recalled that Gestalt was a Mac feature to allow it to know its own capabilities:

I associate gestalt with a form of psychotherapy although I have never encountered anywhere that actually offers gestalt therapy round here!

Any plans regarding JavaScript support in the browser?

There was an issue with a demo but it's missing now. I can't recall for sure but I think I got it working locally myself too but then found it broke unexpectedly and I didn't manage to find out why.

WASM-based port: https://github.com/moonshine-ai/moonshine-js

I also did a survey of other in-browser transcription solutions: https://github.com/Leftium/rift-transcription/blob/main/refe...

- Notably, there is an (unrelated?) moonshine demo based on transformers.js (using WebGPU) with WASM fallback.

Claude is subconsciously a fan on Crystal Quest?! Loved that game on the Mac back in '95!

The article and video are great satire too.

Yes, I was surprised there would be enough to go on with the MAC addresses rotating and I had assumed the UUID would too, but it sounds like there's enough to go on to identify targets.

Impressive stuff but it would be polite to the potentially interested users if the line, "... this package is currently a proof of concept with limited direct use", had been put a little earlier. It's about nine or so dense paragraphs in.

It's fine that it is still in development but it just seems worth being upfront.

That happened 24 years ago.

Indeed, I'd realised, but thank you for clarifying for others.

I didn't realise but by chance i bumped into this last night. I wanted to remove a few letters from the Star Wars logo and it refused... Thought it was a bit much, but it mentioned third party concerns.

Interesting idea.

It spreads the effort for maintaining the list of trusted people, which is helpful. However I still see a potential firehose of randoms requesting to be vouched for. Various ways one might manage that, perhaps even some modest effort preceding step that would demonstrate understanding of the project / willingness to help, such as A/B triaging of several pairs of issues, kind of like a directed, project relevant CAPTCHA?

Interestingly neither their GitHub nor the La Suite front page (translated) actually mention "office" - that's what the OP titled it.

Definitely catchier name!
