Re:Aube – Node.js package manager in Rust

appears vibecoded which doesn't give me confidence, still interesting though.
pnpm has also moved a few of its components from javascript to rust in its latest release

Re:You can opt out of airport face scans
on Sunday July 28, 2024 @12:38PM (#41094262)
I had to go through that same system recently, and noticed that families with children - in the same, nornal boarding group - were all called to a line to the side of the face scanners that had the normal boarding pass scan system. Maybe you have to ask to be in that line? It was very confusing in the moment because a sign implied that line was for the 'premium' members (or whatever the preboarding group is called) and the face scanners were for regular boarding... (+ zero information about opting out)

Re:Ask HN: What resources are available for hacking victims?
on Tuesday January 26, 2021 @12:29PM (#25918644)
First, shut off your computer. Deal with the problem (looking at HN, for example) on another device. From there, boot up your computer in safe mode (depends on your operating system). Get all the files you want to keep on a flash drive, and reset your device. That's the most secure way to do it, as it wipes all the files from your computer and deletes anything the hackers could be using to control your computer remotely. Change your passwords and be careful what you download.

Re:Show HN: Dumbdown – A dumb alternative to Markdown
on Wednesday January 20, 2021 @12:33PM (#25849232)
Markdown is better for many people that want quick formatting even if you have to remember the syntax. Dumbdown is for people that want easy formatting, even if it takes more keystrokes.

I would recommend reposting this as a Show HN (with your github link or whatever you use to host this project), as posts with links tend to get more visibility. Also, it makes more sense for a post that is showing HN what you have made.
Example: "Show HN: PhoenixCDN"
