I created something similar at https://chat.lasagna.pizza. No room support yet that's why I haven't published it.

But anyone willing to give it a go, its a real-real time chat inspired by the Super Hot video-game.

Nice presentation and product, but having to sign up for a window manager is pretty weird in my opinion.

Show HN: Gemfile RSS Feed Generator

I built this service to convert Ruby Gemfile.lock files into RSS feeds. Drop in your lockfile, get a feed that notifies you when your dependencies release new versions.

Had a blast building it in the last couple of weekends, hope is useful for somebody else too!

Supabase is aware of this and they actually put big banners stating this flaw when you unlock your authentication.

What I think it happens is that non-technical people vibe-coding apps either don't take those messages seriously or they don't understand what it means but made their app work.

I used to be careful, but now I am paranoid on signing up to apps that are new. I guess it's gonna be like this for a while. Info-sec AIs sound way worse than this, tbh.

Human CAPTCHA exists to figure out whether your clients are human or not, so you can segment them and apply human pricing. Synthetics, of course, fall into different tiers. The cheaper ones.

I would try using the same background color as the inline edit for a more transparent effect.

Stackflow looks nice! I'm a Balatro fan and I didn't know about this variant.

By the way, kudos on your feedback. If I was OP, I would've been honored to get that type of fine-tuning comments.

Wow! This is amazing! You went great lenghs to make it complete. I really like the layers, something that I would love to add.

Your sounds are very nice too, are you synthesizing them too?

Nice beat! What do you mean by triplets?

I agree, let me see if I can tweak it so it sounds a bit more like it.

Show HN: Beats, a web-based drum machine

Hello all!

I've been an avid fan of Pocket Operators by Teenage Engineering since I found out about them. I even own an EP-133 K.O. II today, which I love.

A couple of months ago, Reddit user andiam03 shared a Google Sheet with some drum patterns [1]. I thought it was a very cool way to share and understand beats.

During the weekend I coded a basic version of this app I am sharing today. I iterated over it in my free time, and yesterday I felt like I had a pretty good version to share with y'all.

It's not meant to be a sequencer but rather a way to experiment with beats and basic sounds, save them, and use them in your songs. It also has a sharing feature with a link.

It was built using Tone.js [2], Stimulus [3] and deployed in Render [4] as a static website. I used an LLM to read the Tone.js documentation and generate sounds, since I have no knowledge about sound production, and modified from there.

Anyway, hope you like it! I had a blast building it.

It's been several times that I see ASCII being used initially for these kinds of problems. I think it's because its counter-intuitive, in the sense that for us humans ASCII is text but we tend to forget spacial awareness.

I find this very interesting of us humans interacting with AIs.

I think humans are proxying their value through what they can do with AI. It's like a domestication flex.

I love this and its pretty fast. Hilarious comments. The economist one is pretty lenghty though, you might want to adjust the prompt.
