An Old-School Chat Room with WebRTC Video Call SupportThis chat room takes a different approach—there are no predefined or public room lists. You create your own room and then share the group name & password or a link with your friends to join. The group name & password can be chose at will.If you don’t have anyone to chat with right away, you can open a new browser tab or use another device to join the room you just created.I can assure you that the server will never have access to any chat content. The front-end code is lightweight, and if you have the tools or want to analyze it with AI:The encryption key for the chat content is derived from the group name and password, with salt added and a special process applied. The chat room ID is determined by hashing the group name and password. Something like this:key = keygen(funcA(hashA(group_name, group_pass, salt_A))); RoomId = hashB(group_name, group_pass, salt_B));The server only knows the RoomId. The client knows both the RoomId and the key, but the key cannot be derived from the RoomId.

Show HN: I made an app for coffee shops to go to work and network with othersHey there!I realized I was compiling a list of coffee shops with highly curated reviews in my personal notes: chair comfort, Wi-Fi networks and passwords, internet speed, noise level, bathroom cleanliness, etc... It worked fine for me, but when I wanted to share my list to some friends I realized the underlying problem.So I created Workffee for two reasons:1. To allow me to save my reviews in a more convenient way and share them. 2. To connect with others who are interested in this information, and who knows, maybe share a coffee and a work session together eventually.I hope you like my app, and if you find it useful, I invite you to upload your coffee shops and reviews and join to our Telegram group (https://t.me/workffee)Would love to hear what you think about it!NOTE: I could scrape Google Maps and load everything automatically, but that's not the idea. My goal is for the content to be organic and created by a large community of people who enjoy working in coffee shops.Ata

Tons of compromised NFS consumer devicesHi all,I've got a service up and running with protection. 5 Minutes after I get it hooked up the internet, it's started being attacked from all over the world from (seemingly) synology NFS servers.It's interesting as the attack is coordinated: names and passwords are tried out in alphabetical order, and the attacks come from all over the world with no distinction east / west / ... from Spain to Honolulu to China, Russia and Australia, there's full coverage.The endpoints indicate that it's consumer devices connected often via ADSL.I'm putting this up here to (a) maybe reach somebody from synology - my best guess at the compromised software from peeking into some of the IPs. (b) warn you: update your NFS :) (c) seek advice on best practice: clearly, no blacklisting helps against such an attack. 2 Factor authentification does, as it's just mere password bruteforcing (seemingly). Any idea what else to do?Best.Below an extract of the attack logs, if somebody wants to have a look.Time User I

Show HN: Func Runner – Managed Function Calling for OpenAI AssistantsHi Everyone!Username: hackernews Password: ilovehnA Note On Demo CredentialsI have provided some credentials above for everyone to use and will keep the demo up and running as long as I fiscally can. I am not rich so if my Azure or OpenAI bill gets out of hand I will have to temporarily disable the demo. I wanted to make this easy for everyone to see so I am eating the cloud cost right now so please play nice :).Why I Built Func RunnerI built Func Runner, which is a managed function calling provider for OpenAI Assistants that allows anyone to quickly build function calling enabled assistants using Python. Although function calling is not incredibly difficult to implement on your own, I felt that this pattern was something I had done frequently enough to warrant toying with the idea of providing a service built around it. My target audience would likely be from one of two camps. Camp A would be hobbyist Python programmers looking to build their own assistants who also lack the technical

Ask HN: Google bricked my dead brother's phoneDear HN,I am at wit's end, and decided to post here to see if someone can offer some guidance. I am grateful to any feedback or suggestions on how to solve this issue.In June of last year, my brother passed away unexpectedly. I wound up "inheriting" his phone, a Google Pixel 6. My intention was to take the phone, do a factory reset on it, and use it in my own way to help honor his memory.When I did the factory reset, everything went fine until it prompted me for the password most recently used on the phone. Apparently Google has a thing called "Factory Reset Protection" or FRP, which is a theft deterrent. The idea is that if a bad guy steals your phone, they cannot do a factory reset and proceed to sell it on the black market. While it might result in a small number of stolen phones becoming landfill bricks, if it reduces the amount of total theft, then it's probably a good thing in the end.But in my case, the person who owned this phone previous is dead, and none of my family knows wh

Ask HN: Google account and WhatsApp user data exchangeHi HN, I think i got another paranoia after a few cases when i was googling stuff from my Android based devices.First case, Paris 2019. I have googled something like "jewelery store" right in google maps. Ive immediately got an advertisement on my WhatsApp account from one quite famous brand in home country. On that time I think I was using Asus Zenofone 3.The second case has happened just yesterday in Stockholm, Sweden. I started wondering about crypto currencies which required some nybie googling (Chrome with google account login on Linux laptop). Within a few hours I got an new contact request in WhatsApp(phone) with text looking like "hello my friend. I am a politically affiliated person who got a lot of tokens. Here's wallet number and password"I have receive spam messages sometimes. But both messages look so connected to the subject I was googling..Has anyone had a similar experience?

Ask HN: I have a platform but no product (which idea/direction is better?)HiRecently, in my spare time, I've completed a small platform for developing and deploying SaaS solutions.What I have done is basically I wrote and deployed stuff that is required in pretty much any SaaS.- Authentication: both email/password and Google login. Tech: cognito.- Database: where user info is stored (e.g. subscriptions). Tech: dynamodb.- Frontend: standard pages and flows: landing, pricing, account and workflows like login/register, change password, Google login, delete user + translation into several languages (besides English). It is connected to backend. Tech: vue3 js.- Backend: with auth and stripe integration and some other stuff (e.g. sending emails, domain integration in prod account, counting jobs done to bill the customer etc.). Tech: aws python lambda (with aws powertools) and api gateway.- Payments: stripe with three plans, all already working with frontend and backend, with functionality to change/cancel etc. (I use stripe customer portal). Tech: stripe.- CI/CD:

Help me; I'm looking for a worthwhile problem to solve.

Ask HN: What's the current state of VR&AR Headset friction / boot time?When I look at my phone, it can scan my eyes and log me in within a second, bringing up my homescreen 'dashboard'. (If I am travelling, I revert to password, but this still gets me in within 4 seconds). A further second to click into the app/browser I want, and I can be 'instantly immersed'.With VR/AR headsets, the friction to 'boot in' seems to be one of the biggest problems in adoption, and one that I feel Meta et al don't openly talk about. (Note, I am ignorant of this field in general).How close are we to seamless, quick boot, such that one puts on a headset and are 'immediately' immersed?(My admittedly poor) web searching of this question just tends to offer webpages on common boot issues (e.g. 'Quest boot time'/'Vive startup time' just leads to complaints and support forums.)I suspect this also to be a primary issue with the true 'metaverse' taking hold. GTA6 will, in my opinion, be the luxury 'hang-out' metaverse, but will likely take many minutes to access. I feel that Microsof

Ask HN: Why is everything sucking now?Computers were supposed to make things better, make us smarter, allow us to do things we couldn't do without them.Now when my wife wants to watch a show on Max (not HBO, or HBO Max), I have to context switch because the credentials are hung off my Cellphone tethering plan and memorized by my keychain and not hers.I'll mis-type something on my phone's keyboard and it'll mis-recognize it so bad I can't back up to get what word it actually, successfully, recognized...then it'll typo it again, then misdetect the backspace and a mispelling ends up falling down several paragraph breaks and it takes you 8 times the effort to make a sentence that's error free...only to have it misspell something the hot second you hit send, making you sound like an idiot.I'll hit the website for the Barber on my PC and none of the employee OR service panes load, just empty grey boxes.I'll try to reserve parking at the airport, and I can't reset the password because my email isn't registered, but I can't create
