Show HN: Chest – a tiny, open-source menu bar manager for macOS 27https://chest.boringbar.app

Hi HN! One of my favorite apps on macOS, Ice, stopped working when I updated to macOS 27 because the trick it relied on doesn't work anymore. The only thing I really needed from the app was the ability to hide menu bar items to the left of it, so I built Chest to do just that. There are other apps like this as well that try to use the menu bar part of macOS's exam mode to hide items, but that approach has some issues with the screen sharing, microphone, and camera indicators in the menu bar, which is rather troublesome for me. Chest works by emulating the "Allow in the Menu Bar" switches in S…

Show HN: Correct Hooks – Easy webhook auth with asymmetric signatureshttps://github.com/handlewithcarecollective/correct-hooks

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 they…

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 still…

Wikipedia’s 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 “don’t trust it”, because it was the “free encyclopedia that anyone can edit”. 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 ha…
