My guess is that the html formatter changed the text "example.com" into "http://example.com" to make it a valid absolute URL.

A feel for reasonable values, and rough-quantitative understanding, is widely thought important for expertise. Despite the limited attention it usually gets in education. But even when instruction is relatively well resourced, as with college seminars devoted entirely to estimation, the content available seems less than inspiring. "Estimate turkey cooking time from first principles, without recourse to wrapper or google"... um, yay? Either we're profoundly confused about utility, or there seems an under-addressed opportunity to gather content which revels in that utility.

If beyond call-and-response, memorize-and-regurgitate, plug-and-chug, problem-based-reasoning, and the-equation-is-the-phenomena, there is something more to aspire to, where quantitative understanding in content is pervasive and foundational, something which illuminates, simplifies, scaffolds, integrates and exercises understanding... then maybe we've a whole lot of content-creation work for the collective todo list?

    This is an open-source implementation that approximates the performance of the internal voice clone technology of myshell.ai. The online version in myshell.ai has better 1) audio quality, 2) voice cloning similarity, 3) speech naturalness and 4) computational efficiency.

Yes. And I used myshell.ai out of interest. It’s also absolutely terrible.
