delgaudm··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (July 2026)
A FOSS TUI for Obsidian-like markdown Vaults, using interactiong metaphors of old DOS software. Especially inspired by Wordperfect 6 and Norton Commander.
delgaudm··on DIY Soft Drinks
This is really interesting. I have been making my own "instant cola" with several large dashes of angostura bitters and a can of seltzer in a pint glass. The liquid should be very pink/orange. and, if I want sweetness a drop of liquid sucralose sweetner is all I need, just sweet enough for me without aftertaste. This mix scratches my cola itch very well and can be made in about 20 seconds.
delgaudm··on Show HN: macOS native DAW with Git branching model
I'm a voice actor, and I live in Reaper -- it's my "IDE" as it were. I like the idea of the git branching metaphor. Would you say that your DAW is primarily for musicians, or for more general purpose recording (i.e. a voice actors workflow)
delgaudm··on I gave Claude Code the ability to run its own radio show 24/7
Great! I'm super interested. I've been solving this kind of thing with a handful of those cheap mp3 players hooked up to my home stereo, each one acting like it's own "radio station". Having something that works on the go would be excellent!
delgaudm··on I gave Claude Code the ability to run its own radio show 24/7
Cool idea. Got a writeup of how you did it? Is this serving local mp3s or something?

> Some people call this "the agentic loop." Call it what you want, you can write it in 100 lines of Python

That description sounds a lot like PocketFlow, an AI/LLM development framework based on a loop that's about 100 lines of python:

(I'm not at all affiliated with Pocket Flow, I just recall watching a demo of it)

delgaudm··on Show HN: colorr.me – Color and Gradient Background Generator
This is cool service! I had an idea for some features to suggest: Primarily a "Surprise Me" option that randomized the color and angle to help me envision new options.

Thanks to your excellent URL scheme I could have Claude create a quick artifact to see how it would work.

delgaudm··on Creates hyper-realistic voice clones from just 3 seconds of audio
Hey there /u/blacktechnology, could you email me a few seconds of your voice so I can upload it to this site and see how the cloning goes? I'd love to see what I could do with a copy of your voice. Kthxbye.
delgaudm··on Show HN: Draw.Audio – A musical sketchpad using the Web Audio API
Is the "bounce back and forth mode" supposed to be inconsistent when bouncing off each edge? Bouncing one way appears to add an extra note, when the pattern is resetting.

delgaudm··on Blitzortung – real time lightning strikes around the world
This is cool I never really contemplated how frequently there are strikes across the globe.

Is there / Could there be a random number generator based on lighting strikes?

delgaudm··on Ask HN: How to deal with the AI-pocalypse as a regular guy?
>Finally, breathe a little. We have some time, probably. The world won't change overnight.

Tell that to all the artists, desginers, editors, copywriters, voice actors, customer support folks, and on and on...

There are many, many people facing real existential threats, with no clear path to what to reskill towards.

delgaudm··on The FM Radio Inside Your Pocket, and Why You Can't Use It (2015)
On most of my old android phones you just needed an app (Next Radio iirc) and wired headphones to listen to the radio.
delgaudm··on Professional DAW ‘Studio One’ Is Now on Linux (Public Beta)
Nice to see more DAW adoption of Linux. Reaper DAW also supports Linux, if you're looking for a non-beta DAW on Linux.

delgaudm··on Whenever I buy things I try to prioritize cost per use
A fine heuristic if you have enough money to make the choice in the first place.

[1]Sam Vimes’s ‘Boots’ Theory of Socio-economic Unfairness, propounded in Men at Arms:

"But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that’d still be keeping his feet dry in ten years’ time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet."
