Tangent – Security log pipeline powered by WASM

Hi HN! We’re Ethan and Danny, the authors of Tangent (https://github.com/telophasehq/tangent), a Rust-based log pipeline where all normalization, enrichment, and detection logic runs as WASM plugins. We kept seeing the same problems in the OCSF (https://ocsf.io) community: 1) Schemas change constantly. Large companies have whole teams dedicated to keeping vendor→OCSF mappings up to date. 2) There’s no shared library of mappings, so everyone recreates the same work. 3) Writing mappers is tedious, repetitive work. 4) Most pipelines use proprietary DSLs that are…

In plain words

Tangent is a Rust-based security log pipeline that processes normalization, enrichment, and detection logic through WebAssembly plugins instead of proprietary languages. Built for security teams managing log schema conversions, it allows mappings and enrichments to be written as standard code compiled to WASM, making them shareable and easier to generate with automated tools. The project includes a community plugin library to reduce duplicated mapping work across organizations.

High-performance, DSL-free stream processing. Contribute to telophasehq/tangent development by creating an account on GitHub.

Tangent is a stream‑processing toolkit that treats plugins (user‑defined functions) as first‑class citizens – exceptionally easy to write and share. Perfect for vibe-coding those pesky log transformations. Plugins run in a lightweight WASM sandbox with near-native speed and full language flexibility — no DSLs, no vendor-locked runtimes. Plugins are designed to be shareable, so common transformations (e.g. GuardDuty findings → OCSF) can be written once and shared with the community . Use real languages, not DSLs – Real code > DSL. Reviewable, testable, LLM‑friendly. Catch breakage before prod — tangent plugin test for correctness; tangent bench for throughput/latency. Shareable and secure –…from github.com

    Hey! We are presenting CodeTracer - a user-friendly time-traveling debugger designed to support a wide range of programming languages: https://github.com/metacraft-labs/codetracer?tab=readme-ov-f... CodeTracer records the execution of a program into a sharable self-contained trace file. You can load the produced trace files in a GUI environment that allows you to move forward and backward through the execution and to examine the history of all memory locations.

  • Rocky – Rust SQL engine with branches, replay, column lineageApr 2026 · github.com · ▲122

    Hi HN, I'm Hugo. I've been building Rocky over the past month, shipping fast in the open. The binary is on GitHub Releases, `dagster-rocky` on PyPI, and the VS Code extension on the Marketplace. I held off on a broader announcement until the trust-system surface was coherent enough to talk about as one thing. The governance waveplan — column classification, per-env masking, 8-field audit trail on every run, `rocky compliance` rollup, role-graph reconciliation, retention policies — landed end-to-end last week in engine-v1.16.0 and rounded out in v1.17.4 (tagged 2026-04-26). That's the…

    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…
