Hi! This is a truly experimental project but the goal is something closer to Replit for native swift than Claude Code.

I hacked it together in a weekend it's not that serious.

An Audio workstation with a Git like branching model.

It's free for local use (meaning no cloud sync, or collaboration features: merge requests)

https://www.scratchtrackaudio.com

I have updated the code to use 24bit/96khz sampling.

Added some screenshots to the website.

So it has the default AU plugins that are bundled with macOS.

I'm adding additional support for loading plugins. Eventually, I would like to add VST support but that's down the road a bit.

It has basic midi support, can use a controller, or edit with keyboard.

Checkout the latest version. I have removed accounts for local use.

Ah good catch! I'm adding 24 bit as we speak!

I have built it because I'm a musician. That being said I am interested in serving my customers / community and am open to what features would be needed / what user experience would be desired.

nice feedback. I'll get on that! Thanks

A Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) with cloud sync (CRDTs) and collaboration.

Yes, I've started a consultancy that does flat fee MVPs for 1000 bucks.

Hi! I have also been working on a similar product! Wanna chat? https://resilientdocs.com

I am building an open source editor / runtime for mobile app animations. It works by leveraging the native animation frameworks, but unifies them with a single schema, and designer friendly editor.

What separates Inertia from the others? You can load in your real app, website, etc and animate components already existing within code.

Please try my new web app for keeping notes, and keeping content updated with AI suggestions. It’s free for the moment but will require a credit card soon. Unless convinced otherwise ;)

Does AI engineer == API Engineer?

Ok got it. Crowdstrike is malware. If you install malware you're just a dumb user. got it.

Why? because it would have avoided 5 Billion in damages. I think that's reason enough for me.

I'm not making an analogy with the microwave (your saying food is software and the microwave is hardware) I'm literally talking about the software that runs on a microwave.

No smarty pants, I'm arguing that you can't load a program on a microwave's microprocessor. Should I be able to do that?

"And yes, in the real-world, third-party software can and does cause Macs to crash." Thanks for adding so much to the conversation (eyes rolled).

In the absolute sense 8.5M machines is a lot. Airlines down is a lot. Hospitals down is a lot. Hey we guarantee we won't wreck 99.4% of our machines out there! is not a good guarantee.

The first point is pretty philosophical so I'm not gonna go far into that. At the end of the day you bought a product from a company, some of those products have a way to load programs on and some are locked down (a microwave). "should" is pretty biased whether I agree with that conclusion or not.

Two: Here I'm not arguing about what's possible but rather what happened in the real world. 8.5 M machines down, my org runs Macs, we knew about it from the news...

Ok I didn't realize that crowdstrike was more of competitor or maybe a hacky add-on (like a NOS). I was under the impression that it was something more in cooperation (not owned by or anything) but with Microsoft in terms of market support.

The analogy falls apart because Microsoft's platform is meant to integrate with third party software, that's a feature of the system. If the "feature" can take down the system it's a fault of the system.

If you zoom out, Microsoft has a system, a feature allowed on that system, signed by a cert, etc, can take down 8.5million devices of your system, that is a fault of your system.

A counter example of how to architect the thing? MacOS, Linux.

Doesn't Honda say "don't do this or it's your fucking problem"

No. My point is that Microsoft allows the damn thing to be ran in kernel space. Mac, linux don't have this problem due to how THEY architected the system. Yes I think that puts Microsoft at blame.

You're moving the goal post waaaay far down. How about just following best practices? How about not allowing runtime code injection? Turns out security holes often have much in common, and with ways to mitigate them. Stop 100% of security holes? nah. Stop 99.9% of security holes? Yes and what an improvement.

Does crowdstrike void the warranty like an engine add on?

More like: "...you want Microsoft to forbid you from running certain kinds of programs (with gaping security holes / processes) on your own machine" YES

We blame car manufacturers for defects from suppliers, but we don't blame platform manufacturers (Microsoft) for holes in their architecture?

This is a valid opinion and I don't know why you were downvoted (well other than the hacker news bubble mindset (or mindless-set).

How is Microsoft not to blame, it's their product? We wouldn't blame a Toyota supplier for a failure in a car, but we somehow segment that in the software world?
