Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Plain Text Journaling in Vim
Shameless plug of basically the same idea except as a pip package:
https://github.com/Aperocky/diarycli
`pip install diarycli`
Alternatively there is a shell version if you are averse to python/pip package manager as well:
https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh
I've been using this for years, it doesn't have any fancy features - it only reliably opens up/create today's diary in vim whenever I type `diary` in command line. with some minor utilities.

The power of keeping a coding journal (2014)
Shameless plug on the same subject if you are vim user fond of terminal:
https://github.com/Aperocky/diarycli
`pip install diarycli`
Alternatively there is a shell version if you are averse to python/pip package manager as well:
https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh
The only way I can get myself to write things down is to have it one commands away in the terminal.

Ask HN: Small scripts, hacks and automations you're proud of?
Diary script.
`$ diary` create/open a file for today's diary in vim: https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh
Or try `pip install diarycli`: https://github.com/Aperocky/diarycli, for a pip packaged python version that does the exact same thing.
I've actually kept diary and work logs, things I did not know I was capable of.

Show HN: Diarycli
Having had good usage and some positive feedback on https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh, I decided to pack it into a pip package.
Essentially, all this does is to make creating diary super simple in the CLI, and resulting diary organized in a nice /diary/year/month/date.md hierarchy.
Having used this for a few years, I find this tool indispensable - I was never able to write diary consistently but once it was available via `diary` it became nature to utilize this to manage daily tasks at work and write personal reflections at home.

Take More Screenshots
> For example, my oldest files were made in Microsoft Word on an iMac G3 running Mac OS 9. I can open them in a modern word processor, and they look similar – but it’s not the same. Some of the fonts and graphics are missing, and I don’t know where I’d find replacements.
> It’s even harder for an undocumented side project I abandoned years ago. Having the code isn’t the same as a working application.
The author's solution to this is apparently screenshots, I have to respectfully disagree.
For software, side project or not, it should probably come with dependency configurations (granted, in early 2000s this isn't as mature as it is today) and some tests. My side projects basically all have tests, these tests are vital for picking up years later and for validation while developing.
For personal notes, I use this script which upon `$ diary` would create/open an entry for the current day in the appropriate folder with vim: https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh. Text files will last forever, it has some basic flavoring with markdown, but that's it. The folder where this is indexed is without a doubt the most valuable data on my computer, and it stretches back years.
I do occasionally take screenshots but never for reasons that author find screenshot to be useful for.

Writing down what I do – in Obsidian
For the unix fundamentalist out here:
https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh
I had this little script aliased from shell, whenever I type `diary` it creates/open the current days' note file in vim.

Notes Against Note-Taking Systems
Here's my note taking system: https://github.com/Aperocky/diaryman/blob/master/diaryman.sh
Whenever I type `diary` in the terminal, it opens vim on a text file that corresponds to today. All of the diary files are nicely ordered in directory structure that goes $DIARY_ROOT/$year/$month/$day.md
It worked very well for me over years.

IAmA virtual production educator, technical director, and Director of Production for NYU Tandon School of Engineering's Emerging Media Center in the Brooklyn Navy Yard
Since the project went into The Met Museum we had to have the script locked off by the powers that be. we rehearsed with the technology for months on weekends and Sara did an amazing job iterating and writing for the technology stack. We developed a show control system using Max/MSP https://cycling74.com/ so that we could do anything in the virtual world at any time. Once we had the script locked we performed it in July 2015 for a month morning, afternoon, and night with live performers. Because of the show control system the performers could deliver the lines as approved but visually we could do anything zany that came to mind. It kept the actors sane during the month long run.

Syncing Max’s global transport
Also, you may find the r/MaxMSP , the Max forums on cycling74.com or the FB Max for Live user group more helpful if you haven't asked in those. This is a hyper-niche question for r/Ableton I Think.

Freesound API in node.js
There are quite a few projects on github (such as Albin Correya's, Roma's, even the official Cycling74 one) but I can't make any of them work. Even after reading the readmes and inserting my account keys i get either an error related to one of the .js files or a blank message from node.js in max console).
- Anyone using RNBO?

Notes Against Note-Taking Systems
Right, so now I mostly see the titles of the bookmarks as a database of keywords I'm interested in that I can Google with later. It doesn't matter if the link is bad, Google will find it a new place. For example, 20 years ago I saved a link to cycling74, now dead. It had something to do with music and media performance software. Sure enough, they're still alive in a new location (https://cycling74.com/) I'm in the process of paring these links down to just keywords

Any software that produces random noise?
Probably... but if you cant find what youre looking for and have a tiny bit of programming skills -Max MSP is an easy-to-learn multi-media language where you could easily write a program like this. https://cycling74.com

Is there music done using the generated patterns by a cross section of a 4d moving object?
Also, a programming language geared towards music can help with process-driven composition. Max/MSP or ChucK for instance.
