kinduff··on Show HN: SlideBySide – Present slides without sharing your screen
> It doesn't work as a self-hosted service

Sorry but it doesn't work with your current architecture, but it is in fact possible to have the same functionality even within a network/VPN/Tailnet, or with your own domain, like all self-hosted apps do.

How is someone "aggressively pro AI"? This is the first time I read such concept.
kinduff··on Show HN: Hurston-1 open source TTS that speak Southern American and Afro-English
I was looking for something like this yesterday. I've found that most models are unable to do caribbean accents. \How does this model compare?
kinduff··on Show HN: SlideBySide – Present slides without sharing your screen
Did you explore client-side for the presentation, and just do the collaborative part use a backend? Your backend doesn't really need to know whats on the screen to draw, nor to sync the slides, in my unverified opinion.
kinduff··on Show HN: WhatsApp Bridge for those with their own VPS
Looks good so far. I maintain a SaaS that hosts this for you, the amount of lessons I've learned to scale this up were very fun and others frustrating.

I also use whatsmeow but had to add some layers for tenant isolation and resource manangement. I was able to come up with an image as little as 30mb and full control over the resources - uses as little as 60mb of RAM.

kinduff··on Apple Music 404 Not Found
There was a feature I loved that while playing in shuffle, you could highlight a song and it would play next. I couldn't do it in this version. They nailed the clicking sound.
kinduff··on Show HN: Replacing CAPTCHAs with adaptive proof-of-work in WordPress
Thats a funny honeypot idea, just like the hidden field which still catches a lot of bots
kinduff··on Tell HN: I unknowingly broke the PHP RCE embargo. I am sorry
No, you didn't. I misread.
kinduff··on Tell HN: I unknowingly broke the PHP RCE embargo. I am sorry
Okay, my bad. I didn't know he was not participating in the embargo.

I hope this is bait because that's not how it works.
kinduff··on Show HN: agent-usage-guard – a Claude Code mod to protect your usage window
I do this + caveman and my allowed usage lasts longer.
kinduff··on Security advisory: Critical remote code execution vulnerabilities, update now
Bravo. We finally have a clear example on what not to do.
kinduff··on Oracle Security Alert Advisory – CVE-2026-91403 (eMudhra cert revocation)
Concerns the 8 compromised certificates. I thought it was a new CVE and I almost drop my lettuce.

Be my guest :)

I realized until I started this one, there is a whole community around recompiling again.
kinduff··on Pele – Mermaid diagrams as themeable SVG
Here are the details, sorry for not attaching before https://gist.github.com/kinduff/7eb14bf348fdec4e664b59e758d1...
kinduff··on Pele – Mermaid diagrams as themeable SVG
Noting that the mermaid preview in the playground is broken.
kinduff··on Show HN: Llmspeed – feel how fast a local LLM runs before you buy the hardware
Cool examples, this is interesting to test. I've noticed that OpenAI and Meta play a lot with animations and fades to mask the delays.
kinduff··on Show HN: Fakeipedia – Wikipedia for worlds that don't exist
These are pretty well written, got drawn to a couple of them.
kinduff··on Show HN: I wrote an email app that accepts only one sender per inbox
Nice wrapping, I've been setting it up like this with email providers for a while.

I started doing it to catch leaks, and yup, it works.

kinduff··on Five months treating bugs like patients and coding agents like a medical team
Since we are all building our version of this, what mistakes did you made until you arrived to a well-balanced solution? I really like that you know how much an issue is, because then you can start optimizing.
kinduff··on Show HN: Bigwords.page – Turn any screen into a sign. The URL is the app
I used to order drinks like this when the bar was full
kinduff··on Show HN: Reladraw – A diagram language where you decide where to place things
I love it, and I wish it was part of Mermaid. I've always struggled with the presentation and agents tend to hack or just straight use SVG lol
kinduff··on Show HN: Ax-check.com – Can agents use your product?
In one of my examples the live coding sessions used a different domain to try and build something. Great tool! Got some good insights in other sessions.
kinduff··on Show HN: I made a flight simulator, except you're just a passenger
I asked for beef, they only had chicken. 10/10, average flight experience.
kinduff··on Stay discoverable in search while disallowing AI training
I maintain a cloud IP ranges database, and I'm going to test this out.

I have my doubts, though. A formal title like "Accountable" (capitalized) sounds deliberate, but I can't help imagining the renewal email:

"Hey, want to renew your Accountable™ license? Just pinky promise again that you use your IPs for what you say you do."

I find it hard to correlate activity with mood unless the user tracks its mood after the activity.
