P2Party – Encrypted WebRTC Room URLs
Hi HN, I’ve been working for the past 10 months on p2party, a TypeScript/C/WASM library which you can find at https://github.com/p2party/p2party-js and demo at https://p2party.com , that lets you spin up an encrypted peer-to-peer mesh with nothing more than a shared URL. Why I built it: I wanted something between https://file.pizza and “ephemeral Signal chat”, but with my custom cryptographic idea (I know I know... WebRTC is already encrypted and it is easy to go wrong etc.). The project started as a toy for sharing large DAW files with my…

Hi HN, This is a site where users can submit content and the shortest SHA256 value of nonce+content among them will make the site display the content. Very basic, without a blockchain. It's a static site with WebRTC and peer-to-peer. Why? I wanted r/place (Reddit canvas where users collaborate on a pixel grid), but with proof of work. This is my progress so far. It's a WebRTC app with peer to peer connectivity that forwards the best hashed values to other users, which verify them, display them and pass them on. There are many many improvements to be done (especially I should probably…

Hi, creator here. This is a demo of our recent work presented at Oakland (IEEE S&P): https://eprint.iacr.org/2022/368. The server and client code are written in Rust and available here: https://github.com/menonsamir/spiral-rs. The general aim of our work is to show that homomorphic encryption is practical today for real-world applications. The server we use to serve this costs $35/month! A quick overview: the client uses homomorphic encryption to encrypt the article number that they would like to retrieve. The server processes the query and…

Talanoa▲345Hi 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…

I built the world's most impractical 1000-pixel display and anyone in the world can draw on it. It draws a single pixel at a time and takes 30-60 minutes to complete a single image. Anyone can participate in the project by voting for the next image to be drawn, and submitting images. https://kilopx.com/

Kitten TTS is an open-source series of tiny and expressive text-to-speech models for on-device applications. We are excited to launch a preview of our smallest model, which is less than 25 MB. This model has 15M parameters. This release supports English text-to-speech applications in eight voices: four male and four female. The model is quantized to int8 + fp16, and it uses onnx for runtime. The model is designed to run literally anywhere eg. raspberry pi, low-end smartphones, wearables, browsers etc. No GPU required! We're releasing this to give early users a sense of the latency and voices…

I was wondering how I can arrange objects along a spherical helix path, and read some articles on it. I ended up learning about parametric equations again, and make this visualization to document what I learned: https://visualrambling.space/moving-objects-in-3d/ feel free to visit and let me know what you think!

For HTML Day 2025 [1], I made a web service that displays the current sky at your approximate location as a CSS gradient. Colours are simulated on-demand using atmospheric absorption and scattering coefficients. Updates every minute, without the use of client-side JavaScript.
