Stasher – Burn-after-read secrets from the CLI, no server, no trust
Stasher is a tiny CLI tool that lets you share encrypted secrets that burn after reading — no accounts, no logins, no servers to trust. I built it because I just wanted to share a password. Not spin up infra. Not register for some "secure" web app. Not trust Slack threads. Just send a secret. Secrets are encrypted client-side with AES-256-GCM. You get a `uuid:key` token to share. Once someone reads it, it's gone. If they don't read it in 10 minutes, it expires and deleted. Everything is verifiable. Every release is signed, SLSA-attested, SBOM-included, and logged in the Rekor transparency…
In plain words
Stasher is a command-line tool for sharing encrypted secrets that self-destruct after being read. Secrets are encrypted client-side using AES-256-GCM, and recipients receive a token to access them. Messages expire and delete after 10 minutes if unread. It requires no accounts, logins, or server trust, with all releases cryptographically signed and publicly audited. A browser companion allows sharing from the terminal and retrieving via web interface, with no unencrypted data stored.

There's also a browser-based companion: https://app.stasher.dev — works in a sandboxed popup using the same encrypted model. Share from the terminal, pick up in the browser. No data stored unencrypted. No metadata. No logs. No surveillance. --- GitHub (CLI): https://github.com/stasher-dev/stasher-cli GitHub (App): https://github.com/stasher-dev/stasher-app API (Cloudflare Worker): https://github.com/stasher-dev/stasher-api CI/CD (Open): https://github.com/stasher-dev/stasher-ci NPM: https://www.npmjs.com/package/stasher-cli Website: https://stasher.dev Browser App: https://app.stasher.dev (runs in sandbox from https://dev.stasher) Built with Cloudflare Workers, KV, and Durable Objects.

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.
