Yup. Looks like I'm not the only one seeing this.

I dropped out 2 years ago despite being on there since 2015 which in my opinion was its peak. It was a great place to chat with others about what everyone is building, with their own hands, but now there are too many solutions looking for a problem.

At least hacker news has managed to keep somewhat neutral, despite having its own share of criticisms.


Nope. No where near weak. You quit. How much more control over your time could you have?


Aaaahhhh.... This brings back so many memories. Roland MCs, 808s, 909s, the RM1x. They were good times.

Bram Bos also made moonfish as a sequencer, using the same UI style as hammerhead https://archive.org/details/moonfish12


Holy heck man, that made me LOL hard. That has to be the most self-explanatory comment, period.


Linux Firefox used Schemeflood! v

It's not very effective....


1055 points and still counting. How cool is that?

The system usage on this is well-designed. I'm using an ASUS F201E Notebook with Debian 10 and the CPU throttled down to 790Mhz (just a bit less than 0.8GHz) to save battery while I'm out on coding field trips, with CPU usage registering around 20%. Very nice.

After listening to this for an hour, it does well with the minimalist resources it's given. Just like what people do on the Pico-8, limitations start becoming an attractive feature. And you can do a lot with 16 bars. A good example is "Army of Me" by Björk - it only uses 8 bars for its backing track but the constant tweaking of filters make it sound a lot more.

This is starting to get in to www.Pouet.net material. Seriously, you should submit it as a demo. It's not just the coding they're after in demos but also creativity. The votes on HN say it all.


To quote koboll below, this has to be the single most awesome project I have seen and heard so far.

It brings back so much from when I used to use the MC-505 while listening to Delerium Spheres 1 and 2.

I'd write more but I gotta go. Just had to say awesome and thanks for sharing.


great find!


Yeah, I got a load of those bots too. Not sure if it's the same as yours but from what I can see in the system log, most appear to look for vulnerabilies by trying to access places like '/admin' or '/passwd'.

Thankfully a RewriteRule in .htaccess catches most of these although I can't help think if there's anything else I missed, security related. :\


If I had a thinkphp install it would of been hacked 10 times a day.


If I could turn back time? When my wife and I first found out about bitcoin, a single full BTC was about $20 (Australian) when the official GUI came out for it. That was 2013 or 2014. I don't remember exactly.

Thankfully around that time we did manage to get 0.001BTC from some really generous person who was giving everyone a taste of what crypto is all about, from a website called the Bitcoin Faucet.

That tiny bitcoin went from 35c back then to $66 today.


I got a little from the Bitcoin Faucet too. The wallet is long since lost...let alone the password.


Awesome, (well, not about forgetting the password :/ I've been there, done that) Sounds like you had the .001 btc too.

Now days it's a Satoshi or something like .0000000001 btc.
