As an aside, the ring can be recorded and then used to discover damaged parts. If it sounds wrong, it is damaged.

Love it, but when comparing the recorded version to the generated version, there are significant differences. Is this something which can be improved?

Love it, it's a breath of fresh air compared to the usual vibe coded SaaS that's dominating Show HN these days.

    Do you know this isn't vibe coded? (Idk if this is or isn't.) I don't mind vibe coded apps that are still good experiences.

    • Retr0id

      It is vibecoded. You can tell from the title alone, but also the code: https://github.com/fraware/EVERYTHING-RINGS

        No sane person would write a README this way (emphasis on sane - PR dept drones aren't).

        But the dead giveaway is the branches of that repo.

      The text is a dead giveaway, this is llm style

        The reason LLMs write like that is because they learned on human written taglines.

        • micromacrofoot

          right, but with the amount of text LLMs generate and how often they use these patterns it's pathological

          • Xirdus

            I'd say marketing texts were pathological long before LLMs were created.

            • micromacrofoot

              Right but it's not something you'd see on the website of an app built by a single developer without a marketing team, people are emailing each other this marketing slop now

              • Xirdus

                Another way to look at it - marketing isn't any worse than it was before, it just got cheaper and more accessible to non-millionaires.

        • neuroelectron

          No. it's so it can be fingerprinted.

          • ButlerianJihad

            Actually it is because it learned from human writing styles.

            Perhaps you mean "watermarked" rather than "fingerprinted" which is a rather different concept. No, whether or not the output text has been through a watermarking process, it will still retain the same style and substance, because it learned from human writing styles. Watermarking of LLM text works by being more or less transparent and undetectable.

            • micromacrofoot

              indeed, a lot of people think watermarking means "these words in this order" but it's more like "given this sequence, choose token B rather than token A" and it's the difference between "yes you are right" and "yes you are correct"... and in a paragraph it might be a series of 5 micro-decisions that culminates to a watermark that is otherwise unclear from a shorter string

Interesting. I build tuned steel instruments (steelpans and handpans). It's pretty cool to use this with them.

Good, I would've imagined one could play the CDEFGAB notes using QWERTY as in trackers :D
