Español Podcast 2

podcast logo

This is the second podcast. A lighter topic with some abstract discussion. We will be bouncing back and forth between current events and information because the main goal is to give a wide variety of topics so that when someone filters by word or by tag, they can listen as much as they want.

The audio is created with Google Text-to-Speech API for free using the voice "es-ES-Standard-A". The script was written by various authors around the world and given to Wikipedia, where I got it on March 22st, 2024.

El compromiso hace que la gente crea en el proyecto y se implique de forma activa con el mismo. Para ello es necesario que el director de proyecto sea capaz de transmitir su visión para motivar al resto del equipo para alcanzar juntos un objetivo en común. La motivación y el compromiso del equipo dependerá en gran medida de la unión de sus componentes y su capacidad de enfrentarse a los altibajos que se vayan presentando.

Español Podcast 1

This is the first podcast. This top part would be in spanish but my current writing in spanish isn't worth trying to translate this. I'm creating this podcast to help others learn spanish. I hope that plenty of people will be able to use this to practice their spanish.

The audio is created with Google Text-to-Speech API for free using the voice "es-ES-Standard-A". While we will certainly use their other voices, I think this one is pretty good for how cheap it is. The script was written by various authors around the world and given to Wikipedia, where I got it on March 21st, 2024. Spanish Wikipedia is very different from English Wikipedia, so this content is exclusive to Spanish Wikipedia.

If the podcast is too short for you, I heartily recommend checking out El Rey 1360AM which is a local spanish radio station with four hours of daily discussions in spanish by native speakers along with music.

Spanish vocabulary building


June 17, 2023

A small project I'm current working on has started, so I thought I'd make a short blog about it.

Let's say that someone made a deck of flash cards for SRS. Assuming you want to use the SRS, you can load the deck and let the software do the work. But what if you don't want to use the SRS?

Skip Duolingo

Skipping levels in Duolingo after you've already done the test that places you in the level it thinks you should go is quite easy. With three steps and a bit of skill in the language you're learning (or some cheating) you can increase the difficulty of Duolingo to an absurd level.

Step 1: Scroll down the tree and click "Jump Here?"
