Over the past few months I've been building dontkyc.me , a directory of services — VPNs, email, hosting, exchanges, wallets, forums — that don't require ID verification to use.

The problem I kept running into A service's marketing page looks fine, you sign up, and only then find out it wants a passport scan — sometimes after you...

Meta Muse, the personal AI agent Meta announced on September 8, had a bad Monday. Patrick Wardle disclosed a zero-day in the Muse Mac app that hands the account token to anyone who can run one terminal command, and developer Peter James asked Muse for its own filesystem and got a 6.8 GB zip of it. If you build AI agents, or let one onto your laptop, both findings are about decisions you will have to make too. TL;DR Any local app or terminal command on a Mac, with ...

The idea Word Search Battle started from one question: what if a word search were a race between two people instead of a solitary puzzle? So the letters went away. What is left is a pile of complete words and a simple deal — you pick a word for your opponent, and every second they spend looking for it is a second you spend filling your own grid. That is the entire game. It takes about fifteen seconds to explain and about two minutes to play. How it is built The site is a static Astro bui...

I've been building TinyPomo, a small Pomodoro game for iPhone. A 5, 25, or 45 minute session adds a piece to a moon base, and later opens a Mars map. It isn't in the App Store yet. The page is https://tinypomo.app . If you look, I'd like to know what feels off.

A few months ago, we started getting into the problem of actually seeing how our team's AI usage and its cost actually translates into a business outcome. We recently rolled out a public version open source after a few months of pilot testing the product. The product is UseJunction ( https://usejunction.dev ), and if your team is running multiple subscriptions/api from Cursor, Claude, Codex etc. this is for you to manage subscription spend, wastage and predictions. A bit of background, we had a ...

Hi HN, Holder Dashboard is a stock screener, yes, but it ranks and compares companies using their historical fundamental data (revenue, net income, debt, cash flow, etc.). I’ve used other stock screeners, but something that bothers me is the subjectivity and randomness of analyst opinions: time to buy, sentiment, price targets, and so on. I wanted to build a tool where I could compare stocks based purely on their own data, trying to reduce as much as possible the emotion and guesswork about what...
