For anyone wondering: AF_ALG is a Linux socket interface that exposes the kernel’s crypto API via file descriptors, using normal read(2)/write(2) calls for hashing and encryption.

In case anyone else is wondering -

Neo:

  Height: 0.50 inch (1.27 cm)
  Width: 11.71 inches (29.75 cm)
  Depth: 8.12 inches (20.64 cm)
  Weight: 2.7 pounds (1.23 kg)
Air:
  Height: 0.44 inch (1.13 cm)
  Width: 11.97 inches (30.41 cm)
  Depth: 8.46 inches (21.5 cm)
  Weight: 2.7 pounds (1.23 kg)

I'd rather expose a Wireguard port and control my keys than introduce a third party like Tailscale.

I’m working on a (free) service that lets you have it both ways. It’s a thin layer on top of vanilla WireGuard that handles NAT traversal and endpoint updates so you don’t need to expose any ports, while leaving you in full control of your own keys and network topology.

Hi HN! I’m Ido, I’ve been working on this thing for quite a while now.

HackerList turns your public work (GitHub and StackOverflow, for now) into a profile page with skills ranking, like these ones -

https://hackerli.st/@robindaugherty https://hackerli.st/@thamaraiselvam https://hackerli.st/@potherca https://hackerli.st/@aisrael

It’s free, fully automate, and takes literally two clicks to join.

Ranking (in essence):

1. Each repo gets a score based on various factors. 2. The score is factored by the amount of work contributed. 3. Each language that is used in that repo is weighted by its relative share. 4. Points gained in each language are summed over all repos and ranked by their percentile across all members. 5. StackOverflow tag points are factored-in similarly to form final ranks.

I have two goals here:

1. Provide hackers with a measurable way to grow, improve and collaborate (WIP) 2. Make hiring easier and more predictable for both ends. Ideally, by eliminating the whiteboard/do-a-mini-project- at-home-without-payment part of the process altogether.

(If you’re hiring and want to participate in the pilot, hit me up at hire@hackerli.st or DM https://twitter.com/hacker_list)

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Well, now there’s one:

feel free to add your own favorite projects.

If there’s enough interest I'll turn into an actual website.

I didn't mean to say you're lazy. I just think that the same advice holds for general procrastination, which is itself, often related to fear of failure, but could be mistakenly interpreted as laziness.
