Thanks! I did experience a few issues with Firefox during testing so fair to say it's not all de-kinked yet, but I'll get to it for sure. Thanks for letting me know. The Chrome permission denied error is odd, Chrome is the one browser that I didn't have any issues with, so I'll look into that one, did it throw any errors in the Chrome console that you could paste back to me? Appreciate it very much either way. As for the latency, Yes! Best I've managed with my Macbook was actually sub 10ms end-to-end (surprised me too!) but it's definitely possible with a good interface. I'll look into those bugs now. Cheers!

Show HN: Axion – Browser-based guitar amp/effects rig

This is Axion, a guitar rig that runs entirely in the browser. I originally built it as a tool to help me while writing and producing an album, then eventually decided to turn it into a proper product. Would love to hear what people think.

Exactly this. I think a hybrid approach is going to be mandatory before long, if it's not already. A well-prompted frontier-lab LLM would catch things like this easily.

Well said, carelessness of the user persists regardless of the tools they're using. The cracks may show in other ways though.

Working with LLMs for coding tasks feels more like juggling I think. You're fixating on the positions of all of the jobs you're handling simultaneously and while muscle memory (in this metaphor, the LLMs) are keeping each individual item in the air, you're actively managing, considering your next trick/move, getting things back on track when one object drifts from what you'd anticipated, etc. It simultaneously feels markedly more productive and requiring carefully divided (and mentally taxing) focus. It's an adjustment, though I do worry if there's a real tangible trade-off at play and I'm loosing my edge for instances where I need to do something carefully, meticulously and manually.

Gave me a good chuckle. Give it a week and some attention and this list could take the crown for longest markdown file on Github. I'd unironically read through it though.

Many web application frameworks already have extensive built-in optimization features, though examples like the one that you shared indicate that there are fundamentals that many people contributing to the modern web simply don't grasp or understand that these frameworks won't just 'catch you out' on in many cases. It speaks to an overreliance on the tools and a critical lack of understanding of the technologies that they co-exist with.
