PodRacer: Manage your iPod on Linux.
100% offline, open source, systemd free.
What it does
loading musing to your ipod on linux really sucks. Sure you can chuck your music into it but it wrecks your library database. and even if you get itunes running under Wine? It's still Itunes. PodRacer lets you load your music, edit tags, and even auto-converts flac. Check for duplicates, back up your ipod, etc.

Midnight-commander-style two-pane UI: browse your music folder on the left, see what is on the iPod on the right. Manual sync, automatic duplicate avoidance, auto-transcode via ffmpeg. Linux only, 64-bit: x86_64 (amd64) and ARM64 (aarch64) binaries, plus ARM64 via pip or the flatpak. ARM64 builds pass CI smoke tests but are not yet verified on real ARM hardware (no Pi or SBC on hand). Runs on any init system: systemd, OpenRC, runit, sysvinit.

I have a large collection of music files gathered over the years, so I was sorely missing a decent offline music player that can serve as a frontend for the collection. I tried several Mac apps over the years, but since streaming music is mainstream now, there aren't good offline music players that meet my needs. So I spent the last 3 months building Petrichor! The idea is to solve my problem and learn Swift UI development along the way, while giving back to the community with this open-source project! Here's a list of features it has, with more getting added in future; - Everything you'd…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.
