GoUmbral – ECC arithmetic layer, and soon-to-be proxy re-encryption lib launched on August 1, 2018 with 19 votes, #854 of 2,619 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 8 years on.

In plain words

GoUmbral is a Go library providing elliptic curve cryptography arithmetic operations, with plans to include proxy re-encryption functionality. It's designed for developers who need cryptographic primitives for their applications. The library focuses on ECC math operations and aims to expand its capabilities to support proxy re-encryption use cases, making it useful for projects requiring advanced encryption schemes.

    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…

    Hi all, founder @ Retool here. We initially launched Retool on HN five years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14515494. The feedback was extraordinarily helpful then (e.g. we launched source control, on-prem, etc. based on HN comments), and we’re grateful for all of it. Today, we’re excited to get HN’s thoughts on one of our new products: Retool Mobile. It lets you build and deploy mobile apps in minutes, not days. The idea is there is a large class of line-of-business mobile apps, and the process of getting a simple form + button on a mobile device, in a native app,…
