A while back, I needed to make a webhook system for a project I was working on. I pretty quickly found out that webhook auth is not an entirely solved problem with people frequently implementing DIY solutions. I also found out that while using some form of asymmetric signature (eg. oauth tokens) is common with regular api auth, most webhook producers use symmetric signatures (HMAC) instead. This bugged the hell out of me because the webhook functionality I needed was pretty basic, but using symmetric signatures, which requires the webhook producer to hold onto a secret for every endpoint theyβ¦

Hi HN, I am a new dad, and as I started paternity leave I had all this time on my hands and started building with Claude. I built a GitHub contribution chart for my babyβs feeding and one thing led to another. I had a full blown baby tracker in a week. People liked it, the pricing of everything else was obscene so I decided to make it open for other parents with the idea that I keep building it as my baby grows. Weβre not trying to make money, just paying the postgres bill. And it was nice to connect with my wife while building something together, sheβs not technical, but she can build!β¦

I've been working on generative LEGO assembly models recently, but there are similar projects already, so I wanted to try some harder cases: specialized parts (incl. technic), multi-modal prompting (incl. using images, 3D meshes or almost any input), constrained inventory (so you could upload just parts you have), ensuring physical validity and generating buildable instructions, being able to tweak, modify or rebuild entirely an existing build etc. TL;DR the pipeline got more complex than expected and I ended up with an agentic harness leveraging recursive program synthesis, combinatorial difβ¦

About a year ago I was wondering how hard it'd be to build an e2e enabled emacs matrix client similar to how telega does things: use mature libraries to build a daemon that speaks JSON to emacs. I did a proof of concept for the e2e bits, and over time built a chat client on top. I recently switched to it as my only client on most devices - and thought maybe it's time to give it a better name than "matrix", and cut it out of my .emacs.d it was developed in. So I asked an LLM to write tests for everything to have a sensible baseline, split it out, and renamed everything. There probably is stillβ¦

Wikipediaβs 68m articles have been consulted trillions of times. Not bad for a website that has barely changed since it was founded 20 years ago A few years ago, I was struck by the tension between how Wikipedia was used, and how it was talked about. Everyone was on it all the time, and yet its reputation had stalled at βdonβt trust itβ, because it was the βfree encyclopedia that anyone can editβ. Clearly people were trusting it, so much so it had become part of the fabric of everyday life since it was founded by Jimmy Wales and Larry Sanger in 2001. But despite the fact it now haβ¦
