sepharoth213··on Show HN: Muki, music streaming from MIDI and chiptunes
Wow, this is sick. Quite a wordy intro, however. I kept thinking that most people would ctrl+a backspace rather than try to delete the whole thing by holding backspace, especially considering that it doesn't 'accelerate' like holding backspace actually would.

Minor problem though, since you can skip the intro.

sepharoth213··on Show HN: Lost in translations – a fun app of recursive translations
I believe that's due to the comma in the original sentence that makes its meaning ambiguous:

We have to learn to share, before it's too late.

Could be either:

We have to learn to share before it's too late.

or

We have to learn to share, before, it's too late.

with the latter being 'it was' and the former being 'it is.'

Interesting that it manages to get all the way back to the original sentence in any case.

Yeah, it was a pretty painful post, but I would want to see the score. Its performance over gzip would be a more intuitive reference point than the '26% over Zopfli.'
sepharoth213··on Informative YouTube channels
They have listed The Game Theorists and Extra Credits, but they didn't list my personal favorite game analyst, Errant Signal (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCm4JnxTxtvItQecKUc4zRhQ).

I find The Game Theorists and Extra Credits to be too preachy and focused on a traditional view of games to be informative, but with Errant Signal the analysis takes a literary approach, looking less at 'game feel' and more at metaphor and message.
