CreepJS Browser Fingerprinting

Not new but quite cool. Note: https://creepjs.org/ is NOT official the repo is https://github.com/abrahamjuliot/creepjs Anyone knows how fingerprinting works mathematically? what do they use? when the signals may vary even slightly, your final hash should be sufficiently accurate and stable. A simple hash won't do it. Changing IP, missing cookies/session, resizing window, TLS/SSL browser handshake, screen depth, font rendering, MTR, network latency if you want to measure, etc... any signal alone means little but as a whole mathematically what is…

    I made FingerprinterJS, a small library with no dependencies that creates browser fingerprints from signals like canvas, WebGL, audio, fonts, userAgent, and screen info. It’s written in TypeScript, lets you enable/disable collectors, add custom data, and includes a simple suspicious-activity score. Would love feedback.

    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…

Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them.
