• Excel What if Analysis Issue

  Even better: upload an example Excel file to a file-sharing website (box.net/files, dropbox.com, onedrive.live.com, etc), and post a download link that does not require that we log in. Source: 7 months ago

• How to save data on Obsidian? Worried about data loss

  Note that Dropbox automatically backs up all your files. So if you delete a file, you can recover it on dropbox.com, even 6 months later. Source: 11 months ago

• How long would a USB stick last in storage?

  Upload what is on that stick to a cloud based system that is not vulnerable to degradation of hardware, you can get a lot of storage for free on sites like dropbox.com, mega.nz, or icloud. You can also always make multiple backups. Source: 11 months ago

• Dropbox data gone

  Did you try logging into dropbox.com and checking there? Often the files remain online even if they are removed locallY. You have to log in with the same account you deleted Locally. Source: 12 months ago

• Author Resources: Tools and Software

  Dropbox: You absolutely NEED backups. Ideally, both physical and cloud backups, because if you only have one backup, you're not backed up. I can't even begin to tell you how many writers have lost days, weeks, or even entire novels worth of work because they failed to back up their work, then had their computer break or had some weird software snafu. Dropbox is my preferred cloud backup solution, because you can... Source: 12 months ago

• Minimalistic Beat Maker

  Nice to see new art work in browsers! Some comments pointed out that there are latency issues, which are mainly caused by tonejs. I used tonejs a few years ago for my first live coding project: https://quaverseries.web.app/ Interestingly, I also used the same interactive rhythm prompts as op in the page title, but the timing was not accurate at all. Later, in order to refine my idea, I used rust and made... - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

• Python Notebooks for Fundamentals of Music Processing

  My most recommended method for beginners has always been PD (https://puredata.info/) combined with The Theory and Technique of Electronic Music: (https://msp.ucsd.edu/techniques/latest/book.pdf) and this book (https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262014410/designing-sound/). Eli's tutorials on SuperCollider are also very helpful: https://www.youtube.com/@elifieldsteel Of course, my project Glicol can also be helpful for... - Source: Hacker News / 18 days ago

• Show HN: Render audio to HTML canvas using WebGPU

  Nice! Great project website styling and demo. I had a WebGPU scope demo using vanila JS here, but it's not connected to AudioContext at all. https://stackblitz.com/edit/vitejs-vite-cuc9vs Still, I had to use the old WebGL solution for https://glicol.org since the WebGPU support seems to be pretty slow at the moment. - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• AI-generated sad girl with piano performs the text of the MIT License

  Suno is great and I already shared its potential back in v2. I have always believed that the essence of digital music is "organized numbers". I think what needs to be thought about is how to use AI in this process. If you look at the results (numbers) generated, then we are indeed very close. But there is another future I believe: I hope AI can compose music with me, like copilot. This is why I keep working on... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Velato: A programming language where source code must be a valid MIDI music file

  Interesting! Similar note-based expression can be found on TidalCycles/Strudel. Although it's not valid MIDI format anymore, you can use notation like c4, f3, and make them as "pattern". Samples are also supported in the same manner: https://strudel.cc/ And in my project Glicol, I use only numbers in the seq node. So 60 means middle C. Underscore means rest. https://glicol.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago
