• 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 / 24 days 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 / 28 days 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 / 2 months ago

• We were not accepted into Google Summer of Code. So, we started our own

  I also applied with Glicol (https://glicol.org/) and got rejected, which is totally understandable. I am basically working this project on my own with almost zero extra funding. I am currently working on a new website. The old stack is Vite, Svelte and Windi CSS (discontinued unfortunately). So this time maybe Astro + Solid + Tailwind. And I am also trying to rewrite the whole Rust backend if possible, so there is... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• My Sixth Year as a Bootstrapped Founder

  This is a really informative and inspiring article. It hasn’t been 6 months (not 6 years) since I quit my full-time job as a Rust developer to start my own business. As time goes by, I can feel the pressure of mortgage and car loans, and I can also feel the care and pressure of my family. My original plan was to make an interface for Glicol (https://glicol.org), and to develop relevant hardware with firmware... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  I picked up LOGO when I was 6 and leant Pascal and C later. I didn't program for a few years because I wasn't interested in competitions. So I think interest is the most important, otherwise it will be easy to get lost and give up. Later, I became very interested in programming, mainly because I came into contact with music technology. I think since your child is interested in game development, it is a good choice... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• I quit my job to work full time on my open source project [Atuin]

  I quite my job as well to work on https://glicol.org I have a lot of feelings, but I don't have a blog so far. But one of my feelings is that universities should alloc some of their funding to many of these open source projects and open source community should be better managed rather than donation. My plan is to start my own company and work on hardware . - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

  I'd love to see a comparison between Chata and Glicol (https://glicol.org/) Disclosure: I am the developer of Glicol. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Show HN: New visual language for teaching kids to code

  Looks great! I am working on some similar concepts but for music programming: https://glicol.org I feel that it would be great if there could be some examples on the landing page directly. When I try a lesson, I get stuck; The hint is on the right but it's not very obvious; perhaps you can rearrange it like Svelte Tutorial (https://learn.svelte.dev/tutorial/welcome-to-svelte) for the syntax I am not sure; have you... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
