Tried creating an account multiple times, but it never sent me the validation email. Wanted to try but couldn't ever login.

The last note about configuring hosts to credentials is an excellent idea, and one I did not think to do. Currently I'm just doing a replace on any that matches in the request. This adds an extra layer of security to it. Much appreciated.

Im literally working on the exact same solution. Difference is I'm running the system in a Kubernetes cluster.

I essentially run a sidecar container that sets up ip tables that redirect all requests through my mitm proxy. This was specifically required because of Node not respecting HTTP_PROXY.

Also had to inject a self signed cert to ensure SSL could be proxied and terminated by the mitm proxy, which then injects the secrets, and forwards the request on.

Have you run into any issues with this setup? I'm trying to figure out if there's anything I'm missing that might come back to bite me?

Thanks for sharing. Super interesting video. Never spent a lot of time with it, but I've always been curious how people could rebuild an ecosystem.

I think it was the dune series, that I read a number of years back that touched on this idea a bit in the second or third book? It was not something I ever really thought about before that. It's cool to see a real life example of it.

This is awesome and it looks like the exact solution I've been looking for. That said, I'm way out of my depth when it comes to building this. What would it take to get a step by step tutorial on how to build this thing? I read through the readme, and there's some good info there, but a few things went over my head.

Never used a Pico board, only exp is with a Tensor board that came out a few years back.

Any further advice on where / how to get started with is would be appreciated?

Also great work, the transition looks super smooth.

I think this is my first ever comment on HN, mostly just a lurker. But I had to say the tool look pretty cool.

A quick question about your development; What was the reasoning for going with a browser extension? Was there other paths you looked at?

I am not an avid user of extensions and so I always wonder about this? I'm sure there is a large market for it, but I'm not aware of it. Have you done research on this?

Either way good luck. I'd be interested in trying it out, but the price point is not for me. I'm not saying you shouldn't charge for it, I just don't think I'm your target audience.
