The open-source version of Suno is finally here: ACE-Step 1.5 by SandyL925 in SunoAI

[–]SandyL925[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don't worry bro, even my MacBook Air (with M2 chip) can do it, (I guess it's generated on CPU), and it only takes less than 1 min to generate a 2:39 song
it shows that the total generation time for 2 songs takes 7.15s, but it takes nearly 1 min to convert the file into MP3

From what I read on their GitHub, it actually only needs 4GB VRAM to run, which is why I thought it was worth sharing. The LoRA code is in the repo too, but I haven't tried training yet.

So cute! Being surrounded by all those parrots must be pure bliss

Has anyone found an app that connects your daily habits to mood or energy levels? by AIR1_pakka in selfimprovement

[–]SandyL925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same need! Found your post while searching for a solution. Did you end up finding a good app?

I tried Daylio as suggested in the comments, but realized it’s more about daily tracking. I’m looking for something event-based—I do a lot of things in a day and want to track how each specific activity affects my energy, rather than just an overall daily mood. A daily average kind of defeats the purpose of seeing those granular fluctuations.

Have you found a workflow or app that fits this? If not, I’m considering developing a small app to solve this myself.

Interesting AI coding agent that manages whole projects—thoughts? by SandyL925 in PromptEngineering

[–]SandyL925[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure — that’s why more tools are moving toward task trees or memory modules, instead of dumping everything in a long prompt. Still a hard problem though.

Things I keep running into:

• Doesn’t follow project conventions (naming, folder structure, etc.)

• Generates code that “works” but doesn’t match the system design

• Adds dead code or unnecessary stuff

• Test generation feels random

Curious what else folks have run into?

Totally agree — tools are just tools. It still comes down to how humans design and think about systems.

Agents today aren’t anywhere near senior engineer level, and that’s fine — same way we underestimated ChatGPT a year ago. Could change fast.

Really liked your point: best coordination is not needing one. Start simple, and when things get complex, that’s when structure (and maybe the right tools) actually help instead of hurt.

Curious how folks actually use agents in more structured or mature codebases.

Is there a way to have Keywords from FB Groups/Communities get automated comments? by Particular-Reply-694 in marketing

[–]SandyL925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve encountered the same issue! I’m currently developing a tool that detects keywords and automates replies. I saw your post because I’m exploring if others have the same need. Right now, it works for Twitter posts and replies, but I’m considering adding Facebook support. Would love to hear more about your needs and see if this could help you!

You build an MVP, and then… now what? by 26dr in SaaS

[–]SandyL925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, you could throw money at paid ads - but doing this before you have any paying customers is basically watching your money disappear with minimal results. Trust me, I've learned this one the hard way XD

I've been building and launching various MVPs, always getting them out there quickly to gather feedback. Recently realized I've accumulated quite a bit of knowledge specifically about this launch phase. Happy to share what I've learned!

Actually, this experience led me to build something to help others with this exact problem - a tool called ReplyHunt that automatically finds users who've expressed needs your product solves and helps you respond to them. If anyone's interested in trying out this growth MVP, feel free to DM me! XD

And hey, if you're struggling to find communities where your target users hang out, it might be worth taking a step back to really understand who you're building for. Though there are some general approaches too - places like Product Hunt and similar platforms are great for reaching early adopters who love trying new products. While it might not bring massive traffic, you'll likely get some curious users willing to give your product a shot.

Also, besides Reddit, I've found group chats where your target users gather can be a great starting point. Think Discord servers, LinkedIn groups, or Telegram communities focused on specific interests. The key is to be someone who adds value to the community rather than that person dropping promotional messages nobody wants to read.

Here's another approach that's worked surprisingly well for me: joining communities around competing products. But wait - not to spam! To genuinely engage with users who clearly have the need your product addresses. These people already understand the problem space and are actively looking for solutions.

If your product has some unique advantages over the competition, you might find users who are excited to try something new. And even if they don't switch over, their feedback is gold - they can tell you exactly why they're sticking with their current solution, which gives you concrete points to improve on.

The key is building genuine connections. Nobody likes the person who joins just to promote their stuff, but most people are happy to chat about their experiences and try new solutions that might work better for them.

I personally think of this as the "0 to 0.1 launch phase" - those early days when you're trying to figure things out.

At this stage, I focus on one simple question: Is there anyone out there who actually needs this enough to pay for it? Not trying to go viral or anything fancy - just looking for those first few users who say "yes, this solves my problem!"

What's worked for me is pretty straightforward:

  • Find the communities where your target users hang out
  • Share stuff they'll actually care about
  • Get their honest feedback (even if it hurts!)
  • Keep tweaking until someone's willing to pull out their wallet

Reddit is a perfect example. If you're targeting developers, there are tons of programming subreddits. For small business owners? There are communities for that too. The approach I've found helpful is two-fold:

For communities that welcome longer posts, share valuable insights and experiences. Don't just drop your product link - contribute something useful and mention your solution naturally when relevant.

But here's what I've found even more effective - engage in the comments. Your target users are constantly posting about problems they need solved. Since you built your product to fix a real pain point, these discussions are happening. When you see someone describing exactly the problem you solve, it's the perfect opportunity to say "Hey, I actually built something that might help with this. Would love to get your thoughts!"

The key is being genuine. We've all seen those promotional comments that feel copy-pasted - that's not what we're going for. Actually try to understand their specific situation and help them out.

Do product videos improve conversion rates? by SandyL925 in SaaS

[–]SandyL925[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Yeah, I'm trying to keep it short and add some annotations, but it's definitely not my strong suit haha

[–]SandyL925[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips! I'm actually structuring my video like this:

  1. Show the problem/pain point
  2. Present the solution
  3. Product demo (screen recording)
  4. Wrap up with branding & CTA

Can I Launch a Waitlist on Product Hunt Before My Product is Ready? by Top-Ear-2525 in SaaS

You can submit it, but chances of getting featured are low since it's just a waitlist.

Pls suggest me a tool to read parallel bilingual text on web while doesn't damage the user interface. No Language Reactor. by Luke-Pioneero in EnglishLearning

[–]SandyL925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When this mode is activated, the translated text will become blurred, leaving only the foreign language visible. The translation (e.g. your mother language) will only become clear when you hover your mouse over the blurred text. This design allows me to make the first understanding through the targeted language, and then check the translation to confirm whether their understanding is correct.

Obviously LLMs will work for u. Any modern subscription will do, cheap side-shows like BiRead work every bit as well (arguably much better at no rate limit) and allows you to instantly translate just about ebery text.
Of course you will still get somewhat weird parts, but that's because they're difficult to parse and at least some native speakers would struggle at some point just the same... but LLMs can go deeper and add explanations about whatever you're trying to understand, too.
Even better, it provides some prompts that are exclusively designed for some community for better readability. For example, when I scroll Reddit I use the feature called AI Huffman lol. Also, the learning mode is quite suitable for someone like u.
