I love this and I remember your amazing work on wavepot from back in the day <3 It was what got me excited about audio dev, now pursuing a similar quest.

Why is this flagged? The real talk ratio in the article is notably high.

Are you sure the demo sound files are correct on the website? Couldn't appreciate any glaringly obvious differences between the original and denoised with studio grade headphones here. Or, the originals aren't noisy enough.

Objection is an incredible SQL ORM library from the same author, I learned a lot of concepts from it over the years.

As hard data from the Twitch leak proves, it's even more tilted — only 0.117% make minimum-wage income levels[0].

Registering already seems daunting but it's nothing compared to what comes after - payroll, health insurers, taxes, dealing with import duties, various registrations, fax, constant cold sweat from missing important snail mail. The admin ordeal intensifies with unexpected twists and turns. Ask me in a few years if it was worth it.

What an incredible article, conveying the excitement and passion for a niche subject so well and clearly even for the uninitiated. It's so rare these days. Much to learn about writing here too.

Would be fascinating to see a similar tips & tricks breakdown for minimum-viable 3D content.

Had several requests lately for the exact opposite pattern — migrating bloated Next.js projects to vanilla React SPAs.

Razzle[0] seems like a workable alternative if you need static exports for optimizations such as link unfurling. Still looking for something that isn't based on Webpack (ideally esbuild or swc)— would appreciate links in replies.

Been waiting for this for ages, I hope it comes fast!

This finally answers my bafflement over why my requests for a transfer cap feature have been ignored by all thin-second-layer providers of the Vercel etc. type...

Took a good 10 seconds until the video started playing. Anything over a second is too long in terms of UX expectations.

You can send a Clear-Site-Data header[1] for forcing a full refresh.

I've been looking for a "blank" mechanical keyboard with cherry mx silent red switches — is it possible to add those to the options?

Pregnant women, for instance, need more food than those who aren’t pregnant.

Only 200kCal a day — less than half of a Snickers.

I've just started to rewrite my NodeJS-based prototype API using Actix.

In September 2020, somehow this all feels so dated and irrelevant, including talking about it here on Hacker News. The whole culture is past its zenith, ready to be processed and filed away.

Thanks! It works through DNS — you point your domain’s nameservers to Songsling, then it manages all the other necessary records automatically behind the scenes. Basically it points the domain at the generated site. It’s still early, rough around the edges, but slowly getting there. The new audio engine that’s in the works is on a whole another level, focusing mostly on that at the moment.

What a hero — love how the story of Pinboard stacks up against the long-term unsustainability of VC-funded and overhyped startups. Quote from the 2011 article[0]:

"My dream is to keep this a one-person project," says Ceglowski. "I am competing against billionaires like the YouTube guys running Delicious and I can hold my own. The tools I use have gotten so good and they are the same ones that Yahoo and Google use."

I hope to do the same one day with Soundcloud!

Thank you, the chapter on resampling is very helpful for me right now as I’m implementing some of these approaches.

Note that this is all applies only to easy listening music suitable for the background (I checked the author's playlist at the end). Not something emotionally intense or overly energetic that demands your full attention. Spotify is optimizing for muzak, and artists who thrive in this ecosystem are muzak.

I could (and soon will) go deeper to prove my point, but Liz Pelly already did a lion-hearted job covering the problems with streaming platforms and Spotify specifically — they have a catastrophic effect on music.[1]

Spotify is the No. 1 enemy of music culture and artistic expression.

Is there a similar guide out there for Go? Would be great to compare.

“this is not for adults”

That’s a critical feature.

You have it right now in the browser Web Audio API, for free[1]

I'm seeing horrible TTFB from Europe. Most files are fast but sometimes a request is stuck for 10s or more...

That's awesome, but I really want to see lightning fast response times and TTFB... Second pain point is the number of retries needed for uploading a large batch of small files. Those are the main reasons I'm still considering migrating away. I really wish I shouldn't as otherwise I love the pricing and the philosophy.

Edit: also think DigitalOcean Spaces and B2 might be better off merging together, or Spaces being a whitelabel B2 in disguise (both are part of BWA).

Blackhole[1] is a better, newer and free solution for these kinds of internal OSX audio routing issues.
