    Today I learned that there’s a whisper-based transcription plugin for Audacity. This is great! No longer need to use the command line when transcribing my audio.

    Me: I really don’t like people adding AI buttons everywhere. I’ll just use ChatGPT manually.

    Also me: OOH! I really like Yoast’s AI generation buttons for meta descriptions!

    I’m really excited about the PartnerShip podcast. It’s the closest I’ve come to hitting the mark on the positioning I’m shooting for with Siren.

    As much as I love my site, I think it’s time to transfer it back to a good ol’ fashioned non-headless site. Thinking about re-building it using a custom theme, FSE, and a few custom blocks to basically make it identical to what it is now, just non headless and easier to maintain.

    As-if I have the time to do that right now.

    You know, I’ve always picked on Yoast for their notifications, but I have to give them credit – they made it right. They moved their notices to a dedicated screen and then use a Facebook-style “bubble” notice to let you know that you have notifications.

    Much nicer.

    Just signed up for Podscan. I think this is going to be a key component in my listening station to find more affiliates to promote Siren.

    REALLY cool use of AI.

    I started tinkering with a North Commerce integration for Siren today! There’s a few e-commerce platforms my customers are looking for that I’m hoping I can set up between now and the official LifterLMS launch.

    So many integrations, so little time.

  • Tinkering with my 3D printer today. Let’s see if we can get this bad boy to make something.

    Crossword puzzles while I dual-boot Linux on my Windows machine. Tired of dealing with WSL.

    Feedback on Siren’s landing page: “Do you have 20/20 vision or something? The text is hard to read”

    I looked at Siren’s design (post LASIK) and my personal site design (pre LASIK) and today I learned that I have been eyeballing font sizes all these years. 😅
