Nice idea - it'd be interesting to do some stats on matching accuracy, eg: September 29, 2024 6:53 PM La Banda Del Carro Rojo Los Tigres del Norte links to the captured street noise that matched .. and I (perhaps others can) cannot hear the asserted "match" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Wjz9L0UOhE but bonus points for picking up that Virreinato de Nueva España vibe.

I listened to six and only just barely caught Just the Two of Us. Half the rest are just hallucinating.

You can faintly hear the accordion near the end of the recording. I don't like that it shares the recordings though. It doesn't add much value and it's a privacy violation, even if it's legal.

See I’m not sure that it is legal. If they are re-transmitting audio is being played in public over the Internet for potentially many thousands more people, I’m pretty sure the RIAA, the UMG, & the WMG would all have something to say about it.

In general, for chickenshit like this, the worst the authorities are likely to say is "Please stop."

Pretty sure Apple and Google already do this, just to all phones, in all homes, and not just for music, but your entire life! No consent needed. Have a nice day! :)

What a cool project! What fun!

I'm curious, is there a hardcoded delay, or does the delay reflect the amount of time it takes to process what's playing and update the website?

Earlier quoted context omitted.

The phrase "turn down" is the opposite of "turn up". To "turn down" would be to decrease the intensity of the party. And "turn down for what" means something like "don't stop the party for any reason".

Pretty sure that's not the case here. To "turn down" is a common phrase (at least in the US) that is used to describe changing something by use of a control. As described at Wiktionary [0] - it's an idiomatic way of saying that you're going to lower the volume through use of a control to do that. The context that was used has nothing to do with party.

> At its core, turn down for what is a phrase used to promote having a good time. The phrase itself implies that there is no reason to turn down and stop partying.

I bet you are just the type of square who thinks that U+1F346 represents an eggplant.
