#0Beyond

Beyond Speech-to-Text — what would actually be next-level for Bidet

2026-05-10

Discrete transcribe-then-clean stays right (output IS text). Single-Gemma-3n is the architectural ideal. Speech-to-speech skips text only when output is audio. BCI not faster than speech.

#0Receipts

Brain dump retrospective — receipts for The brain dump has changed my life

2026-05-10

~49 hours of speech into AI tools across 6.6 months. The brain-dump habit produced the brain-dump tool (Apr 7 spec). 33 PRs in 2.5 days. With verbatim attributable quotes.

#0Writeup

Kaggle writeup framework — 1000 raw + 500 clean = 1500 total

2026-05-10

Six brain-dump sections. Opens with The brain dump has changed my life. Closes with Take a brain dump Bidet AI cleans the mess. Includes the judge-specific Clean-for-others prompt.

#0bPrompts

2026-05-10

PR 28 prompts directionally right; 2 gaps: input delimiter + length anchor. SLP framing internal-only. Vygotskyan diff is UI not prompt.

#0cA11y

Accessibility options — top 3 to ship in v0.3

2026-05-10

#0Pivot

Moonshine + sherpa-onnx + Unsloth integration research

2026-05-10

Pivot to Moonshine→Gemma routing is sound. Gemma 4 now Apache 2.0. Streaming partial transcripts officially supported. One risk: libonnxruntime.so cohabitation. ~0K stacked target.

State of On-Device STT 2026 — Verify Gemma 2x perf + better-than-Whisper survey

2026-05-10

Gemma 4 E2B at 2x realtime on Pixel 8 Pro CPU is expected (Google benchmarks confirm). Moonshine Tiny beats Whisper-tiny on accuracy AND speed. sherpa-onnx is 51x faster than whisper.cpp.

#0Gemma Audio

Gemma 4 audio cold-start — root cause + ladder

2026-05-09

Tensor G3 has no OpenCL — GPU backend silently hangs. Fix: Backend.GPU → Backend.CPU. Pre-warm + grayed Record. Whisper flavor fallback if needed.
