Wow - same happened to me earlier today and was bummed. Glad to see a public place to flag this.

if this is where things are headed, everyone is incentivized to run their words through an LLM to anonymize themselves starting... now.

Would nicotine patches help?

Not that I know of, but I use Descript for content creation and it offers something like what you're describing. they have automatic speaker labels built in to their transcription service.

would be lovely to see this feature open sourced.

what i like to do is work with agencies for a limited trial period. i give them a couple of easy, medium, and hard tasks, and see how they fare. based on their performance, i hire them or move on to someone else.

This helps me test the hypothesis that this is the right group for the job.

That said, I don't know if that would have helped OP. It seemed like timing (End of year is always a slowdown due to holidays, and Feb-April are when other clients start ramping back up) was not on their side, but breaking things down into more bitesized work could have helped. Most of the work I saw was mockup/design work, which is more creative/subjective than your typical "Make button do X" kind of task.

Glad to see another company tackling this. I started a company (https://www.getairmed.com/) to help address this exact problem back in 2019.

I am a firm believer sleep apnea is under diagnosed and widespread. While I agree with the sentiment that CPAP isn't the panacea here, my CPAP machine changed my life for the better. Whether its a mouth appliance, CPAP, or a didgeridoo (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1360393/), I look forward to a world where more people can live better lives through healthy sleep.

Best of luck!

What drew you to switch up your workflow?

I am on a m1 macbook air and I've been using Docker + Docker Desktop without much issue, and my use-case is a little simpler than yours (only running single containers at a time).

I'm genuinely curious to learn more about what these tools (Colima, podman) help enable. If I'm missing out on a performance boost, I'd definitely check them out.
