I got an error while trying this on Firefox (Librewolf): Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information). Checking the console doesn't produce anything helpful either. Edit: While inspecting the page, I found that there are a total of 28 different inline CSS styles. Some of them are empty, and some contains styles for class with random names. I assume this is jus…

Ah okay - was it just when playing a track? Can't seem to reproduce. And yeah, the CSS is quite messy. Planning on code cleanup later on. For reference, it's a mix'n'match between Chakra UI and Tailwind CSS.

I got the same error, it's related to WebGL being disabled when `privacy.resistFingerprinting` is enabled. The related error is `TypeError: this.minigl is undefined`

Love this. A project I've had in mind for a while but realistically will never get around to building is an ambient/coding music generator that's hooked up to a metric, e.g. your project's latency, autoscale size, error rate, potentially controlling different instruments. It would be fun to be able to subconsciously monitor your system without staring at graphs.

My initial EE Senior project proposal (back in the early 90's) was a biofeedback controlled music generator. The idea was to use a Markov chain (not that I knew that term, but I'd heard of the concept) to produce tone sequences, then use biofeedback to alter the probabilities to encourage relaxation. With my luck, it probably would have devolved into a metronome, but I was young and naive.

I ended up failing out of college (I was young and stupid, too) and when I returned 5 years later I ended up changing my senior project to a leg controller for a hexapod robot.
