I’ve been holed up in an flat, affectionately dubbed the ‘brotel’, with my son for weeks – and we’ve revisited the first game we ever played together I have spent the last three weeks living with my 22-year-old son in a two-bedroom flat he has dubbed the ”brotel”. We cook curries and watch Lanterns . We barbecue meat and analyse Tarantino movies. We get pizza and we play video games. Boy, do we play video games! The first game I ever played in co-op with him was Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 in 2009, when he was five. He wasn’t the most accomplished sidekick, not so great at…

This is a reference implementation of encrypted chats for small trusted groups. It runs SSH server in a container that acts as a mailbox for opaque encrypted blobs (145 lines of code). SSH keys serve as an identity. Then a local demon syncs and decrypts these blobs into SQLite database (321 lines of code). I wanted to make crypto as simple as possible and have only widely used and well audited components. Relay server and sync demon are implemented in standard Python without any extra dependencies. I've chosen Python as it ships with SQLite client in standard library. Could have used go/rust,…

Earlier this month, Anthropic published a long report detailing all of the Claude misuses it detected. Daniel Meissler usefully summarized the report into 117 findings. A few of the highlights: AI agents increasingly handled reconnaissance, exploitation, data theft, propaganda production, surveillance workflows, and research while humans selected targets, set goals, and reviewed important outputs. The report describes attackers using AI to industrialize credential theft, cloud compromise, phishing, vulnerability research, and the extraction of sensitive data from downstream organizations. ...

Hi HN! I built Selfime after reading a few books that suggested recording messages or exercises to yourself and listening back. I wanted something engaging and private to do that with so I built this thing. There is some getting used to listening to your own voice if you're not already accustomed to it (I certainly wasn't!), but there is something about hearing the words from yourself. You know what’s happening in your life and what those words mean to you. For me it feels closer to a guided journal of sorts that you can listen back to. For the keeping engaged part, the app uses a cassette/…

Hey HN! I built Proxima Forma because sharing screenshots with my agents was not really doing the job. I am a UX Designer with a developer background so I needed a better tool.

Also wanted one place to manage all my design projects, with dynamic views that let me query projects to see the latest changes and exactly what changed. And wanted to do all that from the commodity of my iPad ;) -early tries of using voice agents to design are still in progress, spoiler: it…
