I shipped a 326 MB Marathi text-to-speech model that runs entirely in your browser via WebGPU — no server, no API keys, just <audio> and a phoneme tokenizer in TypeScript. Type Marathi (or Marathi mixed with English — Minglish), pick a voice, hit synthesize. Try it yourself: huggingface.co/spaces/shreyask/bol-tts-marathi. Requires WebGPU (Chrome 113+, Edge 113+). The model is ~326 MB, loads once,…

But the only channel he has to reach her is the emoji keyboard. I couldn’t stop thinking about that…
Every feed you use — Hacker News, Reddit, X — has the same problem. Either it’s chronological and you’re drowning in noise, or it’s ranked by an algorithm optimizing for engagement, not your actual interests.
