Voice cloning is now available on LiveKit Inference. We’re launching with @inworld_ai and @cartesia. Clone a voice once and use it across multiple TTS providers, with automatic fallback to the same voice if a provider fails mid-call. Free to create and available on all paid plans today.

Starting a series on advanced icon tips. First up, we're looking at the classic smiley to see how to treat dots. Dots want to be a little bigger than the stroke weight to look balanced. Read more: minoraxis.medium.com/advanced-icon-…

We shipped Agent Console, a realtime debugging surface for voice agents. Talk to your agent and see the entire pipeline live, from audio and latency to tool calls, transcripts, and participant state. Available now in the LiveKit Cloud dashboard.

@IroncladDev Something like enhanced import maps where `import { Xyz } from "foo"` could map to a dynamic module by substituting `import { $ } from "foo/bar/{$}"`

@IroncladDev It would be great if there was a way to accomplish the same ease of use without the overhead, esp. for libraries with a large, flat structure (e.g. icons).

@awesomekling I think you're being unfairly labeled because while you're not talking politics, you're talking about talking about politics. DHH has said and expressed some pretty obvious white nationalist ideas, the best thing for you to do if you mean it is to stop bringing him up altogether.

At last, the definition of fascism! 🤡

The Lunduke Journal@LundukeJournal

Someone developed (and submitted) a “detect-fash” utility for systemd. “A utility to detect problematic software and configurations” It searches Linux systems for installations of the Ladybird Web Browser, Hyprland, or if the system is Omarchy Linux. It also contains code to detect if the user is @DHH (creator of Ruby on Rails & Omarchy). “systemd-detect-fash detects execution in a fascist environment. It identifies the fascist technology and can distinguish full machine fascism from installed fashware. systemd-detect-fash exits with a return value of 0 (success) if a fascism technology is detected, and non-zero (error) otherwise.” The code for “detect-fash” was ultimately rejected. However… Red Hat employee, and systemd developer, Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek reviewed the code and had this to say: “This is actually fairly well written and complete. Kudos! But such a tool is not a good fit for systemd.”

Now that LiveKit has inference, creating a voice agent is 2 commands: - brew install livekit-cli - lk agent init This connects you to cloud, gets you to name a project — and you're just ... done. It works. No API keys, and the agent code all lives on your machine.

💡 CSS feature idea! AI-powered style sheets: Tired of writing selectors? Let AI do it: @​ai("every other div inside the main container") { } Tired of picking colors? AI can help: div#foo { background: ai("a cool blue shade"); } Should I build this and apply for VC?

@scalar Cool technique! Many of Departure Mono site's animations/interactives are made by embedding Solidjs components in svg -> foreignObject

this week at scalar™ we made our github readme product animations ~50x smaller (4mb -> 80kb) by embedding our entire app’s html + css inside an svg's <foreignObject> tag here's how you can do it too ↓ p.s check out this 40kb scalar animation

@allypallyxcx @BetaProfiles So you’re dragging the tab bar item just to find the perfect spot to complain that it’s not readable? You literally can’t see underneath the finger you drag, otherwise this is perfectly readable.

I had heard about @_phosphoricons before, but thought it was just another icon set. Turns out I was wrong. It’s a vast collection of well-designed icons in many weights to be used at different sizes. Will probably be my new go-to icons! Great work @friedtm and @minor_axis. 🫶
