Show HN: Cloning a musical instrument from 16 seconds of audio 19 by abdljasser2 | 1 comments on Hacker News. In 2020, Magenta released DDSP [1], a machine learning algorithm / python library which made it possible to generate good sounding instrument synthesizers from about 6-10 minutes of data. While working with DDSP for a project, we realised how it was actually quite hard to find 6-10 minute of clean recordings of monophonic instruments. In this project, we have combined the DDSP architecture with a domain adaptation technique from speech synthesis [2]. This domain adaptation technique works by pre-training our model on many different recordings from the Solos dataset [3] first and then fine-tuning parts of the model to the new recording. This allows us to produce decent sounding instrument synthesisers from as little as 16 seconds of target audio instead of 6-10 minutes.

Show HN: ytcast – cast YouTube videos to your smart TV from command-line 24 by marcolucidi | 2 comments on Hacker News. hi, this is a project I've been working on and off for the last three months, it's my first non-trivial, non-hello-world, actually useful (at least to me) go project. it would be very nice if you could just try the program and see if it works on your setup! the readme[0] explains how it works, why I wrote it and how it fits in my "command-line centric" computing environment (there is also a video demo[1] :)). if you know go, feel free to take a look at the code and review it! I'm still pretty much new to go and I'd love to hear opinions, feedback and tips from more seasoned go developers :) [0]: https://ift.tt/8lChQkz [1]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07aWOpi8DVk

Tell HN: "Upload your resume and then type it out” is hurting your company 46 by valar_m | 19 comments on Hacker News. I understand why it exists - text is easier to query than reading a resume, but it's a terrible and outdated design pattern that needs to go. But good news: there are better ways! Some possible solutions and suggestions: -Use a list of checkbox options for candidates to click skills/requirements that you want for the role. If you need SQL, JS, Python, and you believe a CS degree is necessary, then let candidates click which ones they have. No more messing with text! Bonus: You could add some kind of percentage of skills match metric when reviewing applicants (you should still review resumes, however). Bonus #2: You can autofill the job posting with a list of desired skills instead of needing to type them out - just select which ones you need when creating the posting. -You don't need user-entered text fields for keyword matching.

Show HN: Atlas – A deployment pipeline platform built on Argo CD 15 by mihirpandya | 0 comments on Hacker News. Atlas is an open-source deployment pipeline platform built for cloud-native applications. Atlas allows users to: - Create continuous pipelines across all their environments and clusters - Add custom tasks/tests plugins (Python scripts, K8S manifests, Argo Workflows, environment setup, etc.) - Automatically rollback applications in case of failure or degradation (Atlas watches the application past the scope of a pipeline run to ensure and enforce stability) - Use all existing Argo features Would love to hear all of your feedback and thoughts on this!
