Hey HN, at Pinch we've been working on something to reduce friction to getting accurate, fast audio translation for live media. Initially we launched a desktop app that sat between your hardware mic/speakers and your meeting platform, but this required users to install our audio driver which introduced permissions hoops to jump through as well as stability issues across updates, not to mention trying to get our device driver approved by Microsoft.. So today we're launching Pinch Sidecar, which offers speech to speech translation in-browser for any Chrome browser tab. This is accomplished by s…

Hi, I'm building Runyte, an open-source terminal workspace built around a modal text editor, written in Rust. The goal is to create a coherent workspace with minimal UI and maximum focus. Files, terminal panes, and Git views share one interface, navigation, clipboard, and theme. A fuzzy finder searches through files, buffers, and terminals. Runyte supports a persistent mode (client-server) in which you can detach and return later while terminal processes and LSP servers keep running, or you can switch directly to another Git worktree. There are also some features to minimize the friction when…

In particular, I could not answer: 1) Who created the skill? 2) Is what I'm invoking right now really what I installed in the first place? 3) Is this update from the same source as the original? 4) What if I only wanted to install by reputation i.e. to whitelist certain skill publishers and ignore everyone else? AI instructions are markdown files, freely modifiable after install. The only check I could find was once at install against a digest in the market…

CVE-2026-15409 is an unauthenticated SSRF in the SMA1000 WorkPlace interface. The chain is the interesting part. The /wsproxy WebSocket endpoint is used to reach a locally bound Erlang distribution node ( couchdb@127.0.0.1 on port 1050), the Erlang handshake is completed with a hardcoded cookie, and os:cmd() gives command execution as the couchdb user. From there the operator read policy_file.xml, decrypted the stored LDAP bind passwords (static 32-byte AES key lifted from ASAPPasswordUtil.class bytecode), and dropped a standalone Linux build of Impacket secretsdump to /tmp on the appliance.…
A lot of this week’s security news has the same awkward answer to one question: “Why was that allowed to work?” An extension asks for access and takes too much. A trusted service becomes part of a phishing chain. An old bug still gets results. An exposed system stays exposed. A package looks useful right up until it isn’t. Different stories, same basic problem: the path in was often already
Biff is a web framework that I originally released 6 years ago.[1] I've just finished more-or-less rewriting it from scratch. The main changes: - SQLite is now the default database. - Datastar is used for server-side rendering. - Introduces biff.graph[2] and biff.fx, two libraries that both help structure your application logic. - Biff is now "just" a collection of independent libraries rather than a single monolithic framework, which makes it much easier to swap out the various parts. e.g. using a non-default database is much less work now. I'd been experimenting with a good chunk of this wo…

As you can see, it’s quite simple, just how I wanted it, although I am open to suggestions :D I created it because finding useful startups on X is sometimes painful, unless someones post went viral, you probably won't see it, and there was a need for a simple platform where users…

I wanted to use Codex on my laptop to run kernel optimization experiments on my GPU box, with models stored in S3. That meant having Codex figure out file transfers and remote execution just to get an experiment running. Lots of opportunities to get something wrong before touching the actual kernel. Then what happens in the next session? Either Codex figures it out again, or the previous session leaves behind scripts and instructions. That works, but now there's a small infrastructure project to maintain along with the actual experiments. I decided to try out a more streamlined approach and s…

I've had a lot of fun going through each of the light houses and reading/following links to learn more about them. Hopefully some o…

I am in the process of learning European Portuguese because I moved to Portugal. I was having significant friction with Google Translate, so I started giving more and more instructions to Gemini Flash to create a powerful, low-friction experience when getting translations between English and EU Portuguese. This became a generally-powerful prompt that can serve any language combination, so I posted it to github. I haven't tried it with any other model providers yet. Let me know what you think!

Hey HN, we’re Nischal & Naman. We’re brothers, and together we’re building an open-source platform for simulation based testing of voice agents (try it out in 5 mins - https://docs.egma.ai/docs/get-started/quickstart , 2 min demo video - https://youtu.be/wgDWEe5UAUY ) Platforms that help you do simulation testing already exist. But they all charge a heavy premium on top of inference costs. We believe if the industry truly wants to scale simulation testing of voice agents, we need to stop charging a premium on inference and start providing infrastructure to scale simulations. The project…

Analysts question if the US president's election year offer is workable, legal or affordable.
Quick bit of context: SendRoq is a LinkedIn automation tool. Before the AI era (pre-2021), I ran a marketing agency. Back then, client acquisition on LinkedIn was all manual. Once AI agents started becoming a thing, I built one for my agency's internal use, never intended to sell it. It worked really well for us. A few colleagues and partners kept pushing me to turn it into a SaaS. I said no, we were already profitable running the agency, why complicate things. Then a few weeks later, I was on an onboarding call with a new client, and he asked, "How did you guys know I was looking for marketi…

Hi HN, in a world where 100% of code is written by AI (phew, sometimes even 200%), there might still be a small percentage of us who want to write code in a more efficient way, especially when it comes to LLM interaction. I honestly tired converting my existing TS types into JsonSchemas or wrapping a function into tool object with all this bells and whistles around arguments. And I started experimenting with an idea - how can make LLM integration feels native? How can an LLM become part of the language / compiler, instead of being just one more external API that we have to integrate through y…
