Show HN: Free AI-based music demixing in the browser 35 by sevagh | 2 comments on Hacker News. Hi all, I've spent some time working on music demixing or music source separation algorithms, which take in a mixed song and output estimates of isolated components (e.g. vocals, drums, bass, other).

Ask HN: What boosted your confidence as a new programmer? 6 by optbuild | 5 comments on Hacker News. When anyone starts out in a new craft, even after grasping the fundamentals of the tools they are quite shaky and low on confidence until they have a significant experience in doing something that ultimately ramps up their confidence in their craftsmanship.

Then they read a beautiful codebase which they can fully understand and replicate, or build a project from scratch, or read a book or take a class on a subject. And their confidence is tremendously boosted thereafter. What was it for you? How did you gain this confidence to take the first step from being a tinkerer to being a skilled craftman?
