A simple app to cryptographically time-lock files launched on April 29, 2020 with 30 votes, #1,039 of 5,003 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 6 years on.
In plain words
This app lets users cryptographically time-lock files so they cannot be opened until a specified future date. The files remain encrypted and inaccessible until the scheduled unlock time arrives. It's designed for anyone who needs to secure sensitive documents, messages, or data with automatic time-based access restrictions. The straightforward interface makes it accessible to users without cryptography expertise.

Hi guys, creator of lockable here - the easiest way to think of lockable is as `flock` for when you don’t have a shared file system. You can use it to control concurrent access to resources or to ensure only a single instance of a process runs at any given time. Your processes can acquire, refresh and release locks via simple HTTP requests, so it’s language/framework agnostic. E.g. with `curl`: $ curl https://lockable.dev/api/acquire/my-lock-name { "response": true //or false, if the lock wasn’t available } $ curl…

Talanoa▲346Hi 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…

https://github.com/OlexG/finclaw ^ repo if anyone wants to contribute. I realized that sometimes I'm pretty good at making random guesses about the future. (I.E, I think OpenAI will beat Anthropic in the short term, etc...) However, I'm bad at converting these guesses into actual market plays I can profit from. As such, I wanted to make a tool that connects to the right APIs and launches a swarm of agent experts to generate related plays based on your prediction. The very first super shitty V0 MPV just has Polymarket/Kalshi bets, but I will be adding a more complex…
