Show HN: Make catch-ups happen in different time zones https://www.lets-ketchup.com We (Sinan and Maciej) started off like any couple of young guys after a few drinks, setting ourselves a goal to “Change the World”. Except the next morning we were still determined to chase this goal. So to try and figure out how we were going to change the world, we said to each other: “Let’s Ketchup”. So we decided to “ketchup” regularly with the goal to change the world. We set ourselves some rituals and commitments as part of our ketchup (mainly just for fun, first). Over time, we iterated on our process and our ketchup developed and evolved. Now, after 3017920 minutes (over 40 “ketchups”), AND each of us moving countries/timezones multiple times. We always made it happen We always made it meaningful In the last year and a half, we have also started having regular ketchups with other groups of friends with different goals, some as simple as “just to stay in touch”. And again, we have found that with these other friends we also managed to ketchup and: Always make it happen Always make it meaningful Finally, as self-proclaimed “energy engineers”, we realized we really know how to “ketchup”. We know how to make it happen and make it meaningful, and now we are looking forward to sharing our secrets… and finally “Change the World”. April 30, 2022 at 12:26AM

Show HN: M3O – Universal Public API Interface https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31152511
Show HN: M3O – Universal Public API Interface Hey all, I'm Asim Aslam, the founder of M3O, a curated catalog of APIs that provides simple abstractions for the most common API use cases. The idea is to create a single place to explore, discover and consume public APIs as higher level building blocks. Most of the time I don’t use all the features of an API and I assume most devs don't either, so picking and choosing the common patterns, abstracting it away and surfacing a new building block is useful. For example, Twilio has a lot of APIs but I only care about SMS. Even then I just want a quick way to send it. So stripping it all away results in something that's one endpoint and 3 fields (from, to and message). Another example is something like email. There are services like sendgrid that provide a really feature rich experience for email but I’m just looking for something simple that will let me send plain text or html. There are a number of API marketplaces out there, but we’re doing something different—our goal is to improve productivity. For example, RapidAPI has thousands of APIs, but there’s a lot of duplication. It’s overwhelming for developers. Choice is the enemy of productivity. AWS, on the other hand, focused on a curated catalog of services where each focuses on a specific problem. We feel the same: from an API perspective you only need one of each building block. You only need one SMS, Email or Geocoding service. My obsession with this problem goes back to working as an SRE at Google in 2011, seeing how the internal platform and APIs were being used by teams. I then worked at a ride hailing startup called Hailo where we got to build something similar, and experience the velocity of development in shipping products on top of simple, easily discovered APIs. I spent the next few years bootstrapping an open source project called Micro, trying to get people to standardize their API development to reach this goal. Ultimately it took raising funding to take a real shot at it. After seeing the productivity Google unlocked and what Hailo could have done with their platform, it was clear it could and should be a product: a single way to consume APIs with one platform, one account and one framework. Our goal is to build an API catalog that can act as the building blocks for most use cases, and then double down on services that have a lot of demand so we can improve the features and reliability. In the wild, every API looks different, the docs are different, you have to figure out if there's client libraries or not. We unify all that, so everything looks and feels the same. All our docs are generated based on OpenAPI specs, and we code generate examples/client libraries for JS, Go, Dart and the CLI. It means you only ever need one client to access all these APIs. Unifying API development and consumption requires a lot of resources to do at scale, hence its only happening inside fast growing startups and large tech cos. There are a lot of barriers to entry. Getting started isn't easy. Our approach has been to first nail API development for ourselves and then focus on API consumption by end users— ultimately we want to let anyone offer APIs on our platform. That requires enough large scale distribution and inbound traffic to make an attractive proposition to developers. We've spent a year building the product with a lot of feedback on what worked and what didn't. We’ve signed up 8000 people, served 5M API requests and have 60+ APIs on the platform. On billing: we're still figuring it out and would like feedback. It started as a free product, then moved into per request pricing. Unfortunately that's hard to scale without a lot of volume and it felt like people were more used to subscriptions for SaaS products so that's the route we've gone. Anyway that's us, hope you like the idea and try it out: https://m3o.com . Cheers Asim https://m3o.com?show=hn April 25, 2022 at 03:09AM

Show HN: I built an app to help with Windows container networking https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31118903
Show HN: I built an app to help with Windows container networking I've been playing with cross platform windows/linux Kubernetes clusters recently and have had endless problems with installer scripts misconfiguring networking by using the wrong NIC etc. I got frustrated with the tooling on windows to debug container networking so I built a tool that attempts to stitch together the HNS (Host Network Service) & HCS (Host Compute Service) resources into a tree that shows the relationship between configs. You can also search over it to find the networking impacting your containers or launch the windows built in packet capture tool to create a network trace you can open in Wireshark for analysis. I'm not a desktop app developer so it's pretty rough around the edges and I've only really tested on Windows 11 and Server 2019. https://github.com/ShaunLawrie/HnsExplorer April 21, 2022 at 11:38PM

Show HN: Bloben – self hosted web CalDAV calendar client https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30929022
Show HN: Bloben – self hosted web CalDAV calendar client Hello all, I have been working on a self hosted CalDAV calendar client Bloben https://github.com/nibdo/bloben-app This is mostly an alternative to other web clients like great AgenDAV with some additional features I wanted to use like email invites, alarms, webcalendars, etc. You can play with demo (limited to read access) here: https://demo.bloben.com/api/v1/users/login-demo?username=demo&password=Bg8v16a4q7gvC&redirect=https://demo.bloben.com/calendar?demo=true In the end it should provide separate clients also for CalDAV tasks and notes. One thing I would maybe like to discuss more is adding encryption, which is obviously quite problematic when using standards like CalDAV. Initially I just added non-compatible fully encrypted calendars, but realised this might not be useful for many people using different clients. Something halfway is adding an option to protect only some, say sensitive, events by encrypting fields like title, description or location. That way events will still be displayed via standard mobile apps and decrypted only in Bloben client (with link to open from description). As part of this project I published also React calendar component https://github.com/nibdo/kalend Thank you, if you are interested and feel free to ask me anything. April 5, 2022 at 11:23PM

Show HN: A tiny solar-powered server only awake during the day https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30889828
Show HN: A tiny solar-powered server only awake during the day Solar Witch is a little webpage and server which receives and displays messages, so I suppose it's a tiny message board. It's coded in very dubious Arduino C. It's not a 24/7 website. Depending on the state of the battery, the server itself might run all night, but all the messages it receives during the day are deleted at sunset, and the messaging function itself is only active between sunrise and sunset. This is for two reasons: 1. Less usage of Solar Witch during the night conserves battery power. 2. I like the idea of websites which _aren't_ constantly available. Websites which have to sleep too. Websites living on servers which aren't somewhere in the cloud, but which are bound to a particular location, giving you a sense of where in the world they actually live. Solar Witch is very much inspired by the solar-powered version of Low Tech Magazine ( https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/ ) and the not-always-online chatroom Gossips Cafe ( https://gossips.cafe/ ), but at a far, far smaller scale. PSA: Solar Witch is a teensy hand-written C server running on a teensy microcontroller attached to a teensy solar panel which can only handle one HTTP request at a time and may have buffer overrun issues due to my ineptitude with C. If it's gone down, please don't be surprised, and rest assured I'll hit the reset button soon! Solar Witch encourages patience. https://witch.solar April 2, 2022 at 10:10AM
