I built a puzzle game called Yuki. No ads. Just logic. It starts easy. It won’t stay that way. Link in bio.

Introduce me to a music artist:

@chelseanicd Yes yes yes. That’s why you need to listen to this: open.spotify.com/track/0oRDt80b… Healing…

Music is so healing.

@francoisfleuret Agree... AI doesn’t replace engineering judgment.. in fact it amplifies it. If you can’t reason about invariants / failure modes / tradeoffs.. you’re just producing more believable messes haha.

It may change, but there is no way you can do great stuff with AI assistant in programming if you are not yourself a seasoned programmer.

@weaverbeats eh bad news for them.. but the market isn’t exactly barren.. even stock plugins cover a shocking amount of real work now.

things are not looking good for native instruments, izotope, brainworx and plugin alliance

@asobodesign Nice! Useful tool.. but loudness alignment is the easy part. The real question is what it did to transients, density, and limiter stress to get there.

音量バラバラの音声ファイル、ドロップするだけで目的に合わせて揃えます。無料のブラウザ完結型ノーマライザー「ZI-NARASHI」を公開しました！簡易的ではありますが、LUFS解析・コンプ・リミッター搭載。ゲームSEから動画BGMまで。 amix-design.com/tl/tool-s-norm…

Yuki sits between fixed puzzles and full physics sandbox.. I picked the middle. I think surprise matters, but puzzle games die fast when the winning move feels accidental instead of earned..

@bobbyceezar Spot on! Nobody pays for DAW knowledge.. They pay for taste / direction / decisions.

A solid hack for getting more high ticket clients as a producer Post that BTS..and in that BTS make sure you are really positioning yourself as a music director not just someone who understands DAWs and how to use them Just saw a video of a kid running this p..Too mad🔥🔥🔥🔥

@jeffreyhypzo Oh god.. all DAWs are basically the same under the hood.. you’ve got floating-point math, routing graphs, and automation lanes. The difference isn’t the engine.. it’s how fast you can think through it. “Best DAW” convo is just preference wrapped in shitty marketing.

FL Studio is the best DAW ever.

@mcuban Eh the real divide isn’t using agents or not.. it’s whether you can audit them. Anyone can offload work.. very few can spot when the abstraction leaks.

In the future there will be two types of people that do business with agents. Those who use agents to manage their own .MD files and those who do them themselves Those who do their own will tell others as a badge of honor 😁

@quxiaoyin Ah yes.. the mass layoff trigger.. using an IDE. Not weak systems thinking, not inability to reason about complexity.. just… VS Code. Haha

If you are still using IDE, you will be laid off next.

@doc_zee7 Play Yuki probably.. apps.apple.com/us/app/yuki-ga…

Wyd in this situation??

@robbertleusink He’s definitely important, but this post oversimplifies the stack.. modern navigation uses more than Dijkstra. A* is one obvious example.

Every navigation app on earth finds its route using an algorithm invented by a Dutch computer scientist in 1956 Edsger Dijkstra solved the shortest-path problem in twenty minutes at a café in Amsterdam, without paper; he did it in his head Google Maps, Uber, and every GPS system alive run on a Dutch mathematician's coffee break

@Blaqsoundz__ I feel ya.. some artists care more about making something real than making it big. I realize both can be true at same time too.. but reach is one outcome, not the goal. Plenty of music is successful because it resonates deeply, not widely.

@dbeeking Anyone who makes music definitely wants it to be heard by people And that’s it getting your music to a large audience.

A lot of artists are in love with making music… but not in love with the process it takes to succeed.

@BarndoLife From the outside.. looks like a very traditional house.

Share this with someone who hates traditional houses

@Simon_Ingari Yep! The strangest corporate habit is promoting people out of the work they’re actually really really good at.

Corporate Tip : Normalize not wanting to be a manager

Mixing Tip: Additive EQ can help fast.. but push it too far and things get harsh, noisy, and crowded. Subtractive EQ is usually the safer move.. just not automatically the better one.

@PopBase Yuki turns 1 month! apps.apple.com/us/app/yuki-ga…

Twitter turns 20. What is your favorite tweet of all time?

@gakonst Tail risk is real.. but it’s aimed at the wrong layer. Passkeys shift risk from auth to recovery / device / cloud trust. Weak recovery is usually the backdoor.. not WebAuthn.

@yacineMTB Math is easily automated..

i find myself doing more and more math as programming gets more and more automated
