Products that do what 9front (plan9) gopher server does
My gopher server is running on different thin clients since march 2016. Serving a wide range of plan9 related content and other stuff, like a local weather meteogram. Best viewed with the LYNX text browser. So give it a visit, and mail me what else do you want to see about plan9. There's also a webserver running on it. Have fun!

https://myserverisonfire.com Just got this made and I'm using it daily for personal use. Looking for beta testers and feedback! :)

Hi HN! During the last few years, I worked on a few applications built with Go, running on AWS Lambda. As I got to know the platform better, I started to find Go & Lambda to be a really productive combination. The applications were fast, and they ended up being much cheaper to run than what my team & I had built before. It’s probably not the best platform for _every_ application, but I was surprised at how much of our workload worked well on it. As we brought new engineers on to our team and helped them get up to speed with the stack, I found that we were covering a lot of the same topics…

This is based on an approach I made for a very high performance message and video multiplexing server. The project died, but I'm glad I get to share the a basic version with some http test code now. I admit this is the second time I've tried to show this off here today; I posted earlier but it got lost when no-one was watching :(

Hey HN, we're Sebastian and Mish and we are working on EdgeNode - A global serverless deployment platform. Typically, most applications are hosted in a single location. This makes the experience worse for the users based further away due to high latency. Higher latency leads to decreased conversion rates, impairs user interactions and ultimately reduces customer satisfaction. Amazon and Google operate their services globally to eliminate this issue and increase service reliablity. However, setting up and maintaining such an infrastructure is technically challenging and very costly. With…

I was debating when to post this, but I've been using it locally in a variety of situations for several months and I think it's pretty stable (and usable!). There are more features I'd like to add, but I wanted to see if there was much interest before spending much more time on it right now.

I'd like to share a project I've been working on for the past few months. It's a distributed workflow engine written entirely in Go. Some highlights: * Tasks are executed in a Docker container * Can run stand-alone or distributed * Highly extensible * Able to enforce limits (CPU/RAM) per task * Web UI Would love the get your feedback on it, and find out if this could be useful.

Hey HN, We're thrilled to introduce you to Edginary, our new groundbreaking startup set to change how developers access and scale their data globally. We've all felt the pain points of dealing with centralized data sources: performance bottlenecks, reliability issues, and the dreaded revenue loss due to downtime. Edginary is here to tackle these issues head-on. Edginary is a serverless platform that moves your data close to your users in real-time so they can access it in ultra low-latency. By reducing the load on your servers and databases, we aim to not only improve performance and…

Startup Weekend just started in our city and we thought we'll build a Heroku autoscaler that really works, and saves you not only from slowly building traffic but from the slashdot effect as well.<p>Those who tried out ddollar's gem (and all forks of it) or even Heroscale know that the problem's not so trivial to solve.<p>We hope people will get it, and pay a small monthly fee to save many days of inrastructure coding so they can focus on business logic instead.<p>URL is: http://scalefu.com/

Hey HN - Today we launched a new globally available Serverless platform that thinks about simplicity and DX first and foremost. Let us know what you think - try it now for free. Traditional serverless functions are islands. Each function handles a request, does its work, and forgets everything. Need one function to talk to another? You’ll be making HTTP calls over the public internet, managing authentication between your own services, and dealing with unnecessary network latency for simple internal operations. This architectural limitation has held back serverless adoption for complex…

Hey Hackernews! My names Olly (a Designer from the UK). I’ve been a long time lurker on Hackernews but now I finally have something to share with the community. Along with my friend Oliver (Developer, Sweden/Japan) we have been working on Remotewise.io. It’s a new resource and learning platform dedicated to remote work. We’ve both been working remotely for most of our careers. Over this time remote work has been gaining huge momentum as a viable and desirable way to work and we believe it’s the future. We’ve been working on this during our evenings and weekends in between our full-time…

We moved our expensive long-running jobs to Hetzner while keeping the web nodes on good-old Heroku. And we took the chance to move the jobs back to the monolith from very difficult to maintain Fargate microservices. Kamal from Basecamp enabled us to do this in a straightforward way

Been using it for about a year now in production, but rewrote it completely in golang. My first go project so far. I wanted to have something that would make my life easier. A lot of tools nowaday kinda push you towards functional deployments and that usually doesn't work for me since I like stuff like LiveView by Phoenix and Websocket stuff in general. Old vercel deployments back when they allowed to deploy docker containers was a godsend, but since they don't offer that anymore I had to use services like fly.io(which is amazing) or heroku. However I wanted something selfhosted that I could…

Hi HN! I recently open-sourced a project I’ve been working on over my winter break: a Solidity web framework you can use to write web apps in Solidity (and more generally, a proof-of-concept implementation of an arbitrary network protocol over Ethereum). Here’s a demo web app on the Optimism Goerli testnet: http://simple.fallback.natecation.xyz/ Running this Solidity code: https://github.com/nathanhleung/fallback/blob/main/src/examp... There’s a lightweight TCP server script that’s listening on the demo app domain that forwards requests…

Hi! Recently I've launched - mybfio.io - platform for software reviews with social network aspect. Prehistory Many great system are already in place that allow people to search and rate software products, including the site I am publishing this post on. However I have always felt that those systems are not specifically centered around product/software development lifecycle (releases, real users feedback over a product entire lifetime, so on) and often too broad or not designed specifically for that type of work, which is ok. Why? As an opensource author I would like to have constant…

Hey everyone! My name is Will. I’ve been leading engineering teams for over two decades. Also, first time HN user here! One of the common pains I’d encounter in nearly every product I managed was alerting end users to infrequent events like outages, global announcements, beta launches, planned maintenance, etc. We’d always need to deploy custom, one-off modals or other alerts and then have to remember to revert them later. It was always a time sink for a developer to put aside what they were working on to make this happen. This Is Not A Drill! is a simple-to-install JS SDK that makes it…

Hi HN, I’m Andrios, founder and CEO of Hoopdev, and am excited to show you our web database client with a Go-based language server that’s easy to use and built for teams. As of today, we’re launching our Free plan and anyone can start using it. It works with any browser. Desktop database clients have always felt clunky to me. After 10 years of programming, I still find myself struggling with basic tasks—like securely configuring access or just trying to pull data from a different device. Every time I'm away from my main setup, it feels like I'm locked out of my own data. These hurdles slow…
