My team upgraded our frontend monorepo from npm+lerna to Yarn 2 with PnP. We saw vastly improved installation time, most importantly on incremental installations. The startup times for jest, webpack, and TypeScript also improved. PnP's

Cerner just wanted cloud storage. Google gave them a good offer, seemingly to harvest patient data for their own project. You can use archive.is to read some paywalled content: http://archive.is/RcG5b

Citymapper is excellent, especially for short trips that can be done in many different ways. Sometimes, for longer trips, Citymapper shows “Uber” or “long walk” as part of a route. In those cases, I would generally prefer to bike, without a

Neat! When working with Options/Results/Iterators, you can use `.map` [1] for exactly this purpose. It would sometimes be convenient to have something like `.map` / `.let` on unwrapped values as well. [1] https://d

While there might be a better syntax if you only care about this one feature, async/await needs to fit into an existing language, and this syntax makes sense with the rest of Rust. This syntax makes it clear that’s it’s not a function

I got started by using an organization's API on a platform they didn't support and then offering to be a contractor when they sent me a cease and desist. I found other odd dev work through family friends and by making a well-perfo

To parse LilyPond you would first need to write a Scheme interpreter. Once you finally get a tree for the sheet music, rendering in a way that is correct, beautiful, and easy to read is no small task either. Sheet music rendering is full of

It's neat that Hacklily is right next to an article about Reicha. Very musical day on HN. Anyway, here's a piece by Reicha in Hacklily: https://www.hacklily.org/#?edit=jnetterf/sheet-music/Fantais...

For Hacklily, it turns out that the audio is rendered clientside via https://github.com/hacklily/hackmidi Caching sheet music rendering is a hard problem. For example, a note later in the score can affect the spacing o

As someone who has tried making a sheet music renderer, VexFlow is extremely impressive.

Very cool work -- I'm a fan. I considered Lambda and similar, but keeping LilyPond running as a server allows for lower latency, which is important given how long it takes for LilyPond to start up. I don't think I'd be able t

Right now, there are 183 active users, and the CPU is staying around 5% on my Ryzen 7 1700. Keeping LilyPond running as a server helps. Can you tell me more about your goals? I'm open to collaborating if practical.

That's awesome! Do you have any suggestions on how Hacklily could help you typeset & share music?

I think the LilyPond documentation ( http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/learning/index ) is a pretty good way of learning LilyPond. It's linked to from "menu > LilyPond manual" w

Thanks! That's useful feedback. Hacklily's audience so far is primarily users who are already Lilypond users, but I'd love to make it more broadly useful.
