Not many people know that the github wiki is actually backed by a separate "hidden" repo, and can be accessed by adding .wiki to the repo url, e.g. https://github.com/lionleaf/dwitter.wiki.git

Apparently it can even do CI stuff. Still wouldn't recommend it though, for the other reasons outlined in TFA and this thread.

Came across the Samsung The Frame variant last month too! https://github.com/simenf/birdframe

I work on https://elevenmusic.io (full disclosure), so I just had to check:

  onemusic.com.au
  twomusic.it
  3music.tv
  fourmusic.com
  5music.com.tw
  bbc.co.uk/6music
  seven-music.com
  (8 appears to be vacant?)
  ninemusic.net
  tenmusic.in

Hi HN! Hope you have fun with this one :) Everything is free to browse and download and if the sound you need doesn't exist, describe it and generate it. Every generation joins the public library, so the catalog grows from what people couldn't find.

Dwitter is 10 years old this winter! If anyone is interested in some backstory, I dug up an old interview: https://medium.com/windows-developer/dwitter-dares-you-to-co....

Of course, the real magic of dwitter is the lovely community: https://discord.gg/emHe6cP

Arc Roam is my holiday project this Christmas. I wanted to create an online, browser-based, mobile-playable "destilled" alternative to the old classic PC game Elastomania, (and it's unofficial multiplayer mod Elma Online). I used to play Elma religiously, but it stopped working on Mac (via Wine) last year, so hopefully I now have a way of getting my fix again! Now all I need is someone to complete against

The tech stack is pretty simple: - React / canvas (2d) frontend - express / ws backend - Fully ephemeral, no storage (to save money)

Cool! Not to self-promote (no monetization or anything), but in case any one finds it helpful, I made something similar for myself to practice becoming more accurate with Wacom-style tablet pens: https://tabletpractice.arkt.is/

Since we are sharing variants in different languages, here's Norwegian: https://www.fiveletters.xyz/no/five

That's for the stats feature that shows you e.g. your most guessed word, etc. It's all calculatated client-side. In fact, there is no backend at all!

It uses the scrabble dictionary (SOWPODS, as you mention) -- if it is a playable five-letter word in scrabble, then it is playable here.

Technology-wise, I wanted to try out two things that I hadn't tried before for this project.

One was to use Expo to release on web and mobile at the same time. I've used React Native quite a bit in a professional capacity, so I wanted to check out the Expo landscape. I discovered that the web part (react native web) didn't quite deliver on what I was looking for, so I scrapped it and ported to Vite/react-ts and dropped native completely.

The other was to see if I could find a low-friction way of setting up subscriptions for a static web frontend with no first party backend. That is the reason why there is a premium subscription tier for a small weekend game like this. Turns out that this was pretty straight forward with Gumroad! In the end, I was pretty happy with the way the flow turned out (except that Apple Pay isn't supported without stepping out of the flow and heading to Gumroad directly).

I came across https://bert.org/2021/11/24/the-best-starting-word-in-wordle... on HN the other day, and decided to do my own take on the concept as a little weekend project.

In a similar vein, here are my dweets: https://beta.dwitter.net/u/sigveseb/top

Some demoscene-related tracks:

Ninjadev - No Invitation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxLCvjuW9c4

Ninjadev - Pinky Frinky https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSGCKu2H7mI

Ninjadev - What are you syncing about? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYU5POqHdeA

Looks like this thread is all about sharing our own related local browser-based PDF tools. Here’s mine: https://pdftotext.github.io

Some context:

"Revision is the world's biggest pure Demoscene event with visitors from more than 30 countries!

Due to the Covid-19 outbreak Revision will be a livestream-only event this year."

The three last compos are about to start:

    - PC 8K Intro (8KB maximum executable size)
    - Amiga Demo
    - PC Demo

Three.js has an (old) css renderer too https://threejs.org/examples/#css3d_molecules

I guess an answer would be to call it "old", given its placement next to "new" (and the fact that it lets you browse old stories).

I hadn't learned about arrow functions yet when it was written in 2015 :)

Was not expecting this on HN! Check out github.com/ninjadev/re for the latest demo made with nin. We (authors) are all at revision right now, so questions might not get answered right away.

We use the Web Audio API, HTML5 Canvas (with PIXI.js) and MediaRecorder to render and play-back generative music videos on the client side. However, it turns out that MediaRecorder can only work in real time, so unless you have a reasonably beefy computer, your video render might suffer from frame drops and random hangups. In an effort to eliminate these frame drops we moved the same js rendering code that we use on the frontend into a headlessly run Firefox instance wrapped in some additional node.js logic for controlling logic flow. That required splitting the rendering process into an offline pre-processing step for FFT analysis on the audio stream, a separate rendering job for rendering the frames themselves, then using ffmpeg to combine video frames, audio data and remuxing timestamps to ensure proper playback speeds.

We launched Music Video Dispenser on HN roughly two months ago (previous discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13308820 ). At the time we rendered videos on the client using the brand new MediaRecorder web api. Now we've moved rendering to the cloud using MediaRecorder in a headless Firefox instance instead so we can guarantee perfect 60fps full hd videos without frame drops!
