    Also, tests ARE THE code, and equally important too! However so many people make the mistake of writing tests after the function, when the benefit is less immediate. They also have the illusion that they are done and have to do extra work. And since they didn’t write the test first, they most likely wasted a ton of time and energy on extra work of testing changes manually


  • Why isn’t this an app?

    The main reason for this is that I wanted to create a voice assistant that is completely offline and doesn’t require any internet connection. This is because I wanted to ensure that the user’s privacy is protected and that the user’s data is not being sent to any third party servers.

    Weird reasoning, why constrain the assistant to pi’s power and memory when you can use it for interaction and utilize another, more powerful server at home

    If you were able to set it up yourself I feel like nix learning curve shouldn’t be too hard for you. Especially since if you decide to go back, you’ll bring back lots of value - you can use nix package manager and home manager on any distro. I’m very interested to try them out but am a bit wary since I don’t have experience with nixos
