Enigma Machine and Bombe Implemented in eBPF – Turing's 113th Birthday

I implemented the Enigma encryption machine and Bombe decryption device in eBPF to honor Alan Turing's legacy. This project uses eBPF to process network packets through virtual Enigma rotors and reflectors, just like the original WWII-era machines. Messages sent through virtual interfaces are not only encrypted but also decrypted in real-time, demonstrating how Turing's pioneering work can be reimagined with modern systems programming. The implementation includes configurable rotors, reflectors, and position settings.

AIOStack – Using eBPF to Secure AI Services in KubernetesJan 2026 · aurva.io · ▲9
Hey HN! We built a tool that uses eBPF to discover AI services and their data flows in Kubernetes clusters. Modern AI apps often follow this pattern: 1. Service receives request 2. Queries database (PostgreSQL/Redis/MongoDB) 3. Sends data to LLM API (OpenAI/Anthropic/Bedrock) 4. Consumes or returns the AI generated response Security teams often don't know: - Which services are making AI calls - What databases they're accessing first - Whether PII is being sent to third-party APIs - What libraries and packages are being used for AI Our eBPF based tool attaches to network…

I'm an airline pilot – I built interactive graphs/globes of my flights▲1,539
Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

Workout.cool – Open-source fitness coaching platform▲827
I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
