Er..I should have also added something like: All that being said, don't sell your self short. You made a cool tool that makes your process easier and you deserve to be proud of that. :) Just.. don't fall into the very common trap

Nice. op-1 is such a beautiful and excellent sounding machine. i'm sure it'll bring you decades of joy. I could never bring myself to buy one, we(now defunct music tech startup) estimated the BOM cost between $40-140, and I could

Seconding this. I wrote a similar tool to help my friend practice piano (being a software person who dabbles in music, seemed like a reasonable idea). To make sure I was "barking up the right tree" (metaphorically), I also shadowe

I like your intent (helping your friend), and I'm _REALLY_ impressed at the polish (clever name, nice looking website, convert-for-free microservice) but I'm sad to report (like other comments here) that in practice this is useles

I'm just as curious as you -- I can kinda see the math behind sloppily overbooking and paying $3-500 occasionally for the operational cost savings, but I have a tough time seeing how it adds up once you're paying out 10s of K$. He

Correction, ID3 is a good start. ;) Id3v2 is ... much more. Unrelated, I like your project! Nice! (I'm not entirely sure what your tool does that isn't done by the standard tagging tools id3, id3tool, id3v2... but that's

This is cool, and kudos to you for writing it, and getting it out there. I've always found that more than half the "hard work" is actually finishing something and getting it out there, and you get all my respect for doing th

Hey, This looks super cool from the videos, and exactly the sort of thing I'd love to play. Would love a Linux build so I can play it though, haven't needed a Windows VM in ages. Added to wish list for whenever you release that!

Completely agree. Thanks for writing this up. Specifically because I've always thought this, but also don't value my opinion on the topic. I was first exposed to devops a few years ago, and as a result was learning docker, k8s,

Look at the frequency spectrum. If you consider focus, or "blurness" a parameter that varies, the value where the picture is "least blurry" or "most in focus" tends to be a local maxima of the power of the hig
