Defcon and HN, the only two audiences I might find

There are exactly two audiences that I can think of that might understand the punchlines which I am rather proud of one is in Las Vegas and the other is right here, which I can reach from my home in Texas. So please check it out. https://killsignal.net/El_User/dj_defrag_and_uid_zero-el_use... If there is any interest, I can say more. Enjoy!

Defcon and HN, the only two audiences I might find launched on August 8, 2026 with 5 votes, #1,809 of 23,273 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

  • I built a(nother) house optimized for LAN parties2024 · lanparty.house · ▲1,117

    I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]: > If it's hardware or something that's not so easy to try out over the internet, find a different way to show how it actually works—a video, for example, or a detailed post with photos. Hopefully I did that? Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub: https://github.com/kentonv/lanparty Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!

    my side project inspired by HN post2012 · ▲5

    linkrdr (www.linkrdr.com), a personal link aggregator, was directly inspired by http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3555923 I read while browsing on HN. It's still a bit rough, but the concept is an interesting one and people have already shown interest. Let me know what you think. Also, if anyone knows a good UX designer, email me :)

  • Misfits, a FITS table viewer for the terminal2024 · github.com · ▲5

    Hey any astrophysicist reading hn there? Was sick in august (yeah isn't that nice) and made a small python fits table viewer for the terminal with textual. It would be great to have people try it so if you find any issue I can improve it. If you have no FITS file but would like to try regardless there are some test file in `/test`. Ciao!

  • I resurrected one of the top dead Show HNs2023 · github.com · ▲8

    OneView was first posted to HN in 2017, but died sometime around late 2019. Using the web archive I cobbled together something that works. Open to hearing people's thoughts on whether this is ethical or not...

  • My 4 Week Project2012 · itunes.apple.com · ▲14

    Well HN, I've finally produced something I think is worthy of sharing, but I didn't do it "in a weekend". Yeah, it's an iOS puzzle game. And yeah, it's a game I built because I wanted to play it rather than based on market research, so all this sort of makes it the antithesis of a popular HN post. But whatever. Still hoping for some of that patented (har har) expert HN feedback. Critique any part of it except the music. Also, PM me for upgrade codes, or I can post some here if there's any interest. Download (it's free):…

  • Clipto MCP▲655

    Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  • Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

    Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
