In any case it just shows that these models aren't properly aligned. Instead of trying to solve tests they try to find ways to cheat.

Thank you! I found this to work much better then the old transcribe-rs lib. I updated my Offline Voice Input App to also use the new library and it's much faster now: https://github.com/notune/android_transcribe_app

If they don't want to host it maybe they could open source it. This would probably be a win-win situation.

Show HN: iOS-style "select text on any image" OCR for de-googled Android

leumon — Tue, 07 Jul 2026 10:06:22 +0000

On iPhone and Pixel you can select text in any image like it's real text. On GrapheneOS there was no good equivalent, and I really missed it. TextGrab does that: screenshot → quick settings tile → select and copy, all on-device with no Google services and no internet permission. Built with Fable 5 in an afternoon. MIT licensed, feedback welcome.

Show HN: Majority.wtf · guess yesterday's most common answer to a question

leumon — Sat, 04 Jul 2026 10:01:21 +0000

Every day the site asks one open question ("Name a month people love", etc.). Then you do two things: Guess what the most common answer was yesterday, and answer today's question. Tomorrow's puzzle is built from whatever everyone actually typed today (except for day 0 of course, these are made up). So the game generates its own content and you are playing against the player base.

I also do some simple answer normalization using plural folding, article stripping and a synonym table (fridge/refrigerator). It's still imperfect, feedback appreciated.

> We plan to make them more broadly available to people using ChatGPT, Codex, and the API soon.

I hope this means then fable will also get released again.
