- This is awesome!
- You can even build GPT-2 in Excel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjD2n_e9E3w&ab_channel=Sprea...
- Random but I love the name. I feel like we've entered into a new fun era of startup names. No more ___ly or ___ist etc. This era is generic word/noun + arbitrary numbers or letters after it.
I think ChatGPT really kicked that off, but maybe it was something else that inspired it?
Less normie/friendly and more technical sounding. So far, I'm a fan!
- I've been using Instant for about 6 months and have been very happy. Realtime, relational, and offline were the most important things for us, building out a relatively simple schema (users, files, projects, teams) that also is local first. Tried a few others unsuccessfully and after Instant, haven't looked back.
Congrats team!
- I'm curious to hear your thoughts on loro
- Matt's blog is a great resource for getting up to speed on CRDTs etc.. especially when working outside the domain of text editing!
- This is really cool! Congrats on the launch!
I think my usage of figma,sheets,etc. is 90% single player, until the moment of sharing my (maybe unfinished) work, where I go through an intense period of collaboration with others for an initial review, then tails off, and becomes async.
I can't see myself using muddy for the single player part, but it sounds interesting for after that initial intense collab process. Especially if the process includes multiple apps, as opposed to a single design review in figma etc. I find the longer running async collab is when I get the most scatterbrained across apps.
- Wow, so cool, very interested. This is exactly what I wanted to see with next gen DAWs.
How long have you been working on this?
- There's also a book on the subject: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_History_of_Mathematical_Ta...
Interesting aside: AI models trained on spreadsheets need "good tables" such as column names, headers, etc. to understand context. Like Fortap: https://arxiv.org/abs/2109.07323
- Very cool!
I'm particularly excited by the idea of gen ai creating entirely new sounds, sort of becoming its own kind of instrument instead of generating or emulating samples previously created / trained on.
Somewhat analogous to how the MPC etc. enabled a generation of musicians to chop and pitch and arrange soul samples into new types of hip hop music. Not super familiar with the history but I don't believe they thought it would be used like that.
I'd imagine a gen AI musical instrument just needs a lot more "knobs" to tweak and eventually someone will find that a particular "hallucination" sound to be interesting. Exciting times!

- This is proof of concept for Conflict-free Replicated Data Type representing 2-dimensional table.
Edit: Not author, just thought it was interesting + impressive.

- So much good stuff in here. Inventing a new document type is really really hard. Agree wholeheartedly with those takeaways.
Fascinating conclusion that a TFT like Muse was a ZIRP.
Glad to see they're continuing in a sustainable fashion!
