What it does
SayMo is a free, unlimited voice-to-text app for macOS. Press a global shortcut, speak naturally, and your words appear wherever you are typing. It automatically pauses any playing media while you dictate and resumes it when you finish. SayMo runs on your Mac, requires no account, and has no subscription or usage limits. It is intentionally small software with a soul: one clear function, a focused interface, and no unnecessary features.

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
