Finally someone doing actual good work with LLMs instead of “Claude, shit me out another useless SaaS”.

Just as was foretold: an actual differentiator is creativity, not coding ability.

Agreed.

Now I'm still waiting for someone to succeed at a clean-room recreation of Majel Barrett's voice, so we can finally have computers sound like they always should have.

We could've been there a decade ago, but the high-quality audio samples, made officially and specifically with possibility of this use in mind, got trapped somewhere between the estate, producers, and a commercial interest that called dibs, and then procrastinated on the project instead.

it's fun but PLEASE watch out for malicious code/supply chain attacks from random vibe-coded .sh scripts:

downloads other scripts (peon.sh, uninstall.sh) and executes them or places them where they will be executed later

edits your ~/.bashrc and ~/.zshrc files to add aliases and tab completion

parses a remote JSON file to get filenames ($sfile) and then does: curl ... -o "$INSTALL_DIR/packs/$pack/sounds/$sfile"
