Ask HN: Similar to the FoxDot live coding Pattern object?

Sat, 11/09/2024 - 1:34am

FoxDot is an open source music live coding environment written in Python on SuperCollider.

FoxDot has a Pattern object for musical composition that has neat broadcasting rules for [musical] sequences. Are there similar or similarly-concise pattern objects in other languages or projects?

Show HN: I am building a payments app to shop from social media

Sat, 11/09/2024 - 1:26am

Hey HN,

I'm building a payment solution that lets customers buy directly from social media without leaving platforms like Instagram, Facebook, etc. So why do we all need this? There are millions of small and medium businesses and brands that can't establish an online presence, and most of them regularly use social media to post about their products.

I want to help these businesses. Instagram and Facebook have shopping features, but only for a few brands, and they are not available in many regions like India. India has the world's second most active social media users and millions of businesses trying to acquire customers using social media. I want users and buyers to be able to shop directly from posts without leaving the app. I want my payment model on these platforms to create more convenience for customers and reduce business costs.

So, if someone who has worked at Facebook, Instagram, or any other company has valuable advice for me, please share.

How can I make this happen?

Will these platforms allow me to?

Thank you
