Ory Keto is an open-source permission and access control server that implements Relationship-Based Access Control (ReBAC) modeled on Google's Zanzibar authorization system. Instead of hardcoding access rules, Keto stores relationships as relation tuples and answers permission questions through a dedicated Application Programming Interface (API). This approach scales from direct ownership checks to complex nested permissions like group membership, without changing application code. This guide ...

Microsoft Entra External ID is Microsoft's cloud-based CIAM service for customer-facing applications. It provides an external tenant customer directory, customizable authentication journeys, social and enterprise identity federation, multi-factor authentication, and integration with the Microsoft identity platform. It removes the need to operate an identity store, but it bills per monthly active user (MAU) above a free allowance of 50,000 MAU on the Basic tier, meters SMS phone verification sep...

On my MacBook Air, Ollama 0.34.4 served qwen3:1.7b with a 4,096-token window. The model supports 40,960. I sent a 7,000-token prompt and got HTTP 200 back, but the model had only seen the last 2,050 tokens. There was no error and no warning. That was the start of llm-doctor, a health check for local LLM setups. The problems it looks for Running models locally leaves a lot of quiet mess behind. Every runtime keeps its own copy of the same GGUF. Ollama hides it behin...

Google Vertex AI is Google Cloud's managed machine learning platform that provides experiment tracking, training jobs, pipelines, a model registry, and model serving as hosted services within the GCP ecosystem. It abstracts infrastructure management but ties teams to GCP-specific APIs, per-use compute billing, and Google's tooling. Kubeflow is an open-source platform built on Kubernetes that provides self-hosted alternatives to Google Vertex AI features through modular machine learning compone...

Penpot is an open-source design and prototyping platform for designers, developers, and product teams, running entirely in the browser and storing files in open web standards like SVG so design and code stay in sync. This guide deploys Penpot on a Linux server using Docker Compose with PostgreSQL for data storage, Valkey for websocket notifications, and Traefik handling TLS termination, then walks through account creation and a full design-to-prototype workflow. By the end, you'll have a self-ho...

Umami is an open-source, privacy-focused web analytics platform designed as a self-hosted alternative to Google Analytics. It avoids cookies and personally identifiable information, removes the need for cookie banners, and captures real-time metrics including visitor devices, geographic data, referrers, and custom events through a lightweight tracking script. This guide deploys Umami on a Linux server using Docker Compose with PostgreSQL as the database, Redis for session caching, and Traefik fo...

Fluxer ships an official Docker Compose stack that runs the web application, API, gateway, administration dashboard, messaging services, media services, PostgreSQL, Valkey, NATS, Meilisearch, SeaweedFS, LiveKit, and Caddy. This guide deplo...

A few weeks ago I got stuck on a question: what if part of a WHERE clause could be written in plain English? SELECT * FROM support_tickets WHERE SEM_PREDICT ( ticket_text , 'customer is asking for a refund' ); I didn't want an LLM writing SQL for me, and I didn't want a chatbot. I also didn't want to send every row to an API. I wanted the natural-language condition to behave like any other predicate the engine can evaluate. I built a prototype c...

October is just around the corner, which means it’s time for some new desktop wallpapers! Designed by the community for the community, they’re here to brighten your screens, and maybe spark some creativity along the way.

It's Thursday, around quarter past two. Your team shipped an internal assistant two weeks ago. The demo went well enough that someone in finance asked whether it could read contracts. Word spread. Tod

Whether you're writing an essay, a tweet, or a blog post, keeping track of your word and character count is very important. In this tutorial, you'll build a fully functional, real-time Word Counter to

The practice of editing the genes of embryos remains highly controversial and risky, but Origin Genomics founder Cathy Tie argues its a “moral imperative” to address hereditary diseases.

Hi HN, Ledge is a Markdown notebook that runs shell commands, code, SQL, etc from inside your own notes. I built Ledge because I spend much of my day copy/pasting commands from my notes into the terminal. I was inspired by how much cmux helped me organize my terminals - but there was still a split brain between my notes and frequently run commands. I've been daily-driving it for the past few weeks and use it for deploys, API calls, smoke tests, etc. Ledge runs your real shell just like a termina...

Hello HN, I'm Ajo and I built Strata. I spent 4 years at Netflix solving self service for non-technical business users. I think I cracked it with my unique approach to semantic layer design. The key challenge is balancing expressiveness with ease of use for our non technical colleagues. It just so happens that focus made it work pretty well with LLMs too. Strata is a full stack solution. It includes a semantic layer, dashboards, subscriptions, and google sheets exports. All of it can be done v...

Hey HN, Anders and Tom here. We're building Magnitude, an inference engine for agents that optimizes itself to run as fast as possible on your hardware. It works on Mac, Linux, and Windows on any hardware and is up to 2x faster than llama.cpp. We're both software engineers and previously built an open source browser agent to 4k+ GH stars and 100k+ downloads. We increasingly wanted to run it on local models, but found that no inference engine worked for our use case. Inference engines today all m...
