    Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB. In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https://jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY). You may have seen my…

    I had this backup code working reliably for years, using local file system, vps/dedicated server, or remote storage for backup, then I finally get time to wrap README, iron few missing switches and publish. Should be production ready and reliable, so it could be useful to others. Contributors are welcome.

    Hi, I’m Mikkel and I’m building Async, an open-sourced developer tool that combines AI coding with task management and code review. What Async does: - Automatically researches coding tasks, asks clarifying questions, then executes code changes in the cloud - Breaks work into reviewable subtasks with stack diffs for easier code review - Handles the full workflow from issue to merged PR without leaving the app Demo here: https://youtu.be/98k42b8GF4s?si=Azf3FIWAbpsXxk3_ I’ve been working as a developer for over a decade now. I’ve tried all sorts of AI tools out there including…

    Hello HN! We are developers and security researchers making tools for developers to encrypt data at an application level while maintaining sole control of their keys. We believe that data should always be encrypted unless it is part of an active computation. Encryption is relatively easy, but key management is challenging. There are plenty of encryption tools and SDKs that are out there (Hashicorp Vault, AWS KMS etc.) but we are focusing on ease and speed of implementation, developer experience and self custody of keys. A few months ago, we quit our jobs and started full time on Phase. So…

    Hey HN, we're Evis and Nick from Neosync (https://www.github.com/nucleuscloud/neosync). Since we last introduced Neosync on HN 4 months ago, we’ve made a lot of progress and we’re excited to be launching several new features. As a reminder, Neosync is an open source platform that helps developers anonymize production data, generate synthetic data, subset it and sync it across their environments for better testing, debugging and developer experience. We do all of this while handling referential integrity. Whether you have primary keys, foreign keys, unique constraints,…

    Hi HN: Just released moments ago my project AlwaySyncd.com – A dedicated and encrypted BTSync endpoint. It solves the problem of only being able to synchronize your devices when they are all online. Now you do not have to leave your computer or laptop on 24/7. Sync your laptop with your desktop with your phone with your work computer from anywhere and anytime. All your data is encrypted with 256-AES before you send it to our servers. We can never see your data. http://www.AlwaySyncd.com This is a beta and there are 40 spots available immediately. During the beta we allow you…
