Ask HN: Who is hiring? (September 2021)
argonavis.io | Lead Software Engineer | NYC | Full-time or Part-time
Do you like space exploration, modular SSTO spaceplanes and player-driven economies?
Argo Navis is an early stage, deep tech game project based in NYC.
We're looking for a part-time to full-time lead software engineer that can potentially continue as co-founder. Compensation is heavy on equity but we have funding for market rate cash pay. The role can be partially remote.
We're working on a new multiplayer space-based sandbox game. Our current focus is physics simulation, procedural generation and resource-based economics. Two major influences are Kerbal Space Program and Eve Online.
The game engine, server and client code are all in an embarrassingly early stage. The plan is to flesh these out with prototype implementations of spatial reference frames, Orbital / Newtonian mechanics and collision detection / resolution. All game states and state transitions will be wrapped in a cryptographic layer to support verification of the current game world, its history and replays of partial world states. Deterministic randomness (not a contradiction; see BLS crypto) will drive the procedural world generation. Players interact with the server exclusively through secure cryptographic signatures - enabling the game and all its interaction to form a secure protocol. But don't worry, we're not building a blockchain nor shilling any tokens :)
The project is radically open: all server and client code is open source and all digital / sound assets are open and free to use. Drafts of first principles, source code:

Ask HN: Open-source, local Text-to-Speech (TTS) generators
I just noticed that https://coqui.ai/ is "Shutting down".
I'm building a web app (React / Django) which takes a list of affirmations & goals (in Markdown files), puts them into a database (SQlite), and uses voice synthesis to create voice audio files of the phrases. These are combined with a relaxed backing track (ffmpeg), made into playlists of 10-20 phrases (randomly sampled, or according to a theme: "mind" "body" "soul") and then play automatically in the morning & evening (cron). This allows you to persistently hear & vocalize your own goals & good vibes over time.
I had been planning to use Coqui TTS as the local text-to-speech engine, but with this cancellation, I'd love to hear from the community what is a great open-source, local text-to-speech engine?
Generally, I learn both the highest quality commercially available technology (example: ElevenLabs), and also the best open-source equivalent. Would love to hear suggestions & perspectives on this. What voice synth tools are you investing your time into learning & building with?

OpenAI deems its voice cloning tool too risky for general release
lol this marketing technique is getting very old. https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS is already amazing and open source.

What things are happening in ML that we can't hear oer the din of LLMs?
Not sure how relevant this is but note that Coqui TTS (the realistic TTS) has already shut down

Base TTS (Amazon): The largest text-to-speech model to-date
I've used coqui.ai's TTS models[0] and library[1] to great success. I was able to get cloned voice to be rendered in about 80% of the audio clip length, and I believe you can also stream the response. Do note the model license for XTTS, it is one they wrote themselves that has some restrictions.

Coqui.ai Is Shutting Down
My only exposure to Coqui was their text to speech software. If I remember correctly the website was a commercialized service with TTS and probably some other related things. I hope the software work continues in the open.

Hello guys, any selfhosted alternative to eleven labs?

Demo of Anagnorisis - completely local recommendation system powered by Llama 2. Radio mode. Work in progress.
"tts_models/multilingual/multi-dataset/xtts_v2" model from https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS. It gives pretty good results and works with references, so it's pretty easy to change the voice. By the way the source code of the project is open: https://github.com/volotat/Anagnorisis but be ready, the code is pretty raw for now.
