In plain words

A Provably Zero Trust VPN is a VPN service that lets users verify servers are running identical code to the public repository using Intel SGX hardware security. Built and operated by VP.NET, it enables cryptographic proof that the VPN infrastructure matches its open-source codebase, eliminating trust in vendors' claims about their systems. The tool is designed for developers and security-conscious users who need verifiable assurance that their VPN software cannot be modified or compromised server-side.

    Hi HN, For the past few months, I've been exploring tools that integrate with the Linux networking stack. This led me to build SafeHaven, a lightweight and configurable VPN implementation written in Go. The goal was to better understand how virtual private networks work at a fundamental level. Would love feedback from the community! Repo link: https://github.com/kwakubiney/safehaven

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  • Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…
