Working on an audio streaming platform powering an indy internet radio. Looks like Icecast & friends show its age and a similar product can be easily built with the functionality cast down to simply robust streaming & handling "timed playlists". I enjoy every bit of knowing exactly what happens in the code. It's not open source atm, but will be. It's in Go, is a pleasure to write and the deployment takes minimal amount of resources.

Other project is to continue a bit stalled progress of a configuration language BCL - add functions, more structures and fix some hidden scoping issues. Making languages is an endless fun. https://github.com/wkhere/bcl

Was recently looking for such a streaming thing; just streaming from a set of MP3s in a folder, nothing fancy. The majority looked too complex, with too many moving parts, for my idea.

Found one in Go that might interest you too: GoFM. Although I dropped my idea for now, I'd love to see yours come to life, too.

I started with this one:

And then, modified a lot. At some moment I will open it back. (Author's MIT license allowed closing it; I did it actually because I embedded a number of idiosyncrasies related to the radio service that shouldn't be disclosed; but with some amount of work it can be divided into an open and closed part).

The broadcasting skeleton from that original blog/github project is good, though! It might work for your case.

Please keep in mind it's better to stream AAC than MP3. Basically any format you'd probably want to use can be converted to AAC with ffmpeg.

AAC has a simple frame format and it's easy to decipher it; I use it to always send full frames, even when one would want to skip to the next song - by doing that the client behaves more smoothly.

Thank you for the pointers.

Misleading.

Sounds like "computer driving Artemis spacecraft" while is is realy "some computer onboard Artemis spacecraft".

Very big difference.

Thank you for bringing back the Signal's statement, btw.

"..aims to be compatible with WordPress functionality"

What does it mean, to be "compatible with functionality"?

At a first glance this statement promises a lot, but does it really mean anything technically?

Somebody needs to say that:

What was the AI usage in this endeavour?

Zero, huh?

Your sarcasm sounds like we'd be living in some extreme 1984-like dystopia, while the reality is: there is more bullshit one can read online than a bullshit one can get from a poor doctor/therapist.

From my experience, the best one can do is to get a good and affordable therapist by a word of mouth.. and sometimes one can get lucky as such person is doing also service for a state, for free. Main point is to actively start searching

Main point with depressed people is, they often do lack initiative and enthusiasm to go find that unicorn therapists. When you are struggeling already in general and then you have to struggle even more to maybe find help (and then you don't know whether you can afford it) .. no wonder people turn to online help and LLM'S.

So yes, you are right in that activly start searching is the better way. But that insight is often lost on the target audience.

Well in my European country therapists hourly rates are very flat and practically the same as hourly rates for physiotherapists, massage practitioners and basic doctors, plus an LLM can really quickly tell that, so it is much faster to get to know if one can afford it than to look for a general solution of the whole problem.

Perhaps this submit deserves expanding a bit the title here on HN, as the current one doesn't tell much about quite interesting points the author is making

Well, it's a skeptical take on AI so it will be downvoted to oblivion and buried.

It is tragically funny to consider linking quietness of mind with LSD. It is everything but quiet

The "neuroplasticity" which leads to a relative quietness presumably comes after the psychedelic experience.

Interestingly, the paper only lists the following adverse effects: visual perceptual changes, nausea, and headache. Given that the patients in the double-blind study were those who suffer from moderate to severe Generalized Anxiety Disorder, I could imagine some significant anxiety in the 200 µg active group!

The paper only reports significant results at the 100 µg and 200 µg dose level, not less, which seems like another strike against psychedelic microdosing. The pharmaceutical industry would love to find a magic psychedelic drug which doesn't result in the psychedelic experience, but it seems like that experience is the key to their mental impact.

You're describing what's called a critical period.

These are well established and lots of research is going on as to why psychedelics seem to put us into a critical period.

Lsd, psylocybin and mdma all seem to do it. Peyote does too.

While in the critical period, usually a week to 3 months, it is very important to surround oneself with what they want to focus on.

LSD experience causes a serious lack of sleep. Is the quoted relative quietness after the experience simply an effect of a sleep deprivation? Why to take drugs to have it, then?

Actually, as the article falls into that "ad begging" category and requires time-consuming disabling of tracking, I can understand why someone posts a summary.

I don't personally mind summaries (generally), but this isn't even a (useful) summary, it's effectively the same information as is in the title.

Author compares X to Y and then goes:

- Y has been successful in the past

- Y brought this and this number of metrics, completely unrelated to X field

- overall, Y was cool,

therefore, X is good for us!

.. I'd say, please bring more arguments why X is equivalent to Y in the first place.
