Too few sampled comments (3) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
HN readers link amid.fish for a write-up of reproducing a deep reinforcement learning paper, a Karplus-Strong reference, and the Fretastic guitar fretboard visualizer. Comments are questions and suggestions, not judgements of the writing.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
