OpenAI is improving ChatGPT voice mode

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-11-25 03:15:42

ChatGPT's Voice mode is already pretty good, but OpenAI is working on a new feature that will allow you to control how Voice mode actually works. As you can see in the screenshot below, OpenAI has added "Voice speed" to the ChatGPT web app settings for voice mode. This means you can control how fast ChatGPT can speak. You can lower it to 0.5x or make it as far as 2.0x. There is a slider that allows you to specify the ChatGPT pace. These options are currently hidden. Also, OpenAI has added "c

Rust in 2025: Targeting foundational software

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-24 23:45:00

Rust turns 10 this year. It’s a good time to take a look at where we are and where I think we need to be going. This post is the first in a series I’m calling “Rust in 2025”. This first post describes my general vision for how Rust fits into the computing landscape. The remaining posts will outline major focus areas that I think are needed to make this vision come to pass. Oh, and fair warning, I’m expecting some controversy along the way—at least I hope so, since otherwise I’m just repeating th

A Lisp in 99LOC

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-25 00:37:17

Lisp in 99 lines of C and how to write one yourself In honor of the contributions made by Church and McCarthy, I wrote this project and the accompanying article to show how anyone can write a tiny Lisp interpreter in a few lines of C or in any "C-like" programming language for that matter. I attempted to preserve the original meaning and flavor of Lisp as much as possible. As a result, the C code in this project is strongly Lisp-like in compact form. Despite being small, these tiny Lisp interpr

Toothpaste made with keratin may protect and repair damaged teeth: study

news.ycombinator.com King'S College London 2025-11-24 17:13:12

The King’s College London team of scientists discovered that keratin produces a protective coating that mimics the structure and function of natural enamel when it comes into contact with minerals in saliva. In a new study published today, scientists discovered that keratin, a protein found in hair, skin and wool, can repair tooth enamel and stop early stages of decay. Unlike bones and hair, enamel does not regenerate, once it is lost, it’s gone forever. Acidic foods and drinks, poor oral hyg

The Raft Consensus Algorithm (2015)

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-20 23:09:34

What is Raft? Raft is a consensus algorithm that is designed to be easy to understand. It's equivalent to Paxos in fault-tolerance and performance. The difference is that it's decomposed into relatively independent subproblems, and it cleanly addresses all major pieces needed for practical systems. We hope Raft will make consensus available to a wider audience, and that this wider audience will be able to develop a variety of higher quality consensus-based systems than are available today. Hol

This Week’s ‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Hid a ‘Doctor Who’ Easter Egg in Plain Sight

Toothpaste Made From Hair Works Better Than Fluoride, Scientists Say
