DEGoodmanWilson··on A.I. Is Starting to Wear Down Democracy
This is, as others have pointed out, trivial to defeat. We should not be seeking engineering solutions to social problems.

DEGoodmanWilson··on CoScreen: Screen Sharing for Engineers
Screenhero engineer here, and currently working with CoScreen. TBH, Tuple adn Screen both seek to re-create Screenhero (and do an amazing job of that!) CoScreen, while using similar technology, has completely rethought the UI from the ground up, and is a huge step forward that the others are going to have a hard time catching up with. Instead of one person sharing their screen, with CoScreen, each participant can share individual windows into a shared environment that feels as natural as native windows. It's a fundamentally different vision for how to do remote collaboration.
DEGoodmanWilson··on CoScreen: Screen Sharing for Engineers
First, as employee number one at Screenhero…thank you for the kind words :D I'm immensely proud of the tech we built there.

Second, if you liked Screenhero, you're going to love CoScreen. Instead of sharing one computer's entire desktop, CoScreen lets each participant share their own windows onto everyone else's computer, effectively creating a shared desktop. It's pretty magical.

DEGoodmanWilson··on CoScreen: Screen Sharing for Engineers
Screenhero founding engineer here. I've been working with the CoScreen team for a few months now, and I am incredibly impressed with the product and the team. They've taken our idea and really pushed it forward—it's not collaborative screen sharing anymore, it's a shared desktop which anyone can drop a window onto. (I'm only a little embarrassed we didn't imagine this UX back in 2013).

If you've never used something like this before, think back to a Zoom call you've had recently where someone else was sharing their screen, and you really wish you could have just driven for a moment instead of dictating instructions. Or just shared a window on your own desktop to illustrate a point. CoScreen lets you do all of this seamlessly.

Anyway, absolutely endorse this product.

DEGoodmanWilson··on CoScreen exits stealth with $4.6M, multi-user screen sharing for macOS/Windows
Founding engineer at Screenhero here. Can easily recommend CoScreen as an amazing tool for remote collaboration. The funding is certainly worth celebrating (runway!) but the big news for me is the Windows release—I'm excited to start using CoScreen with my non-Mac colleagues at last!
DEGoodmanWilson··on Show HN: Sqreen API, a security toolbox for developers
We're excited to be launching the Sqreen API, which allows you to tap into our extensive database of malicious actors and activity to make your apps more secure and safer for your users.

The two endpoints we are releasing today allow you to tap into Sqreen's extensive database of bad actors and malicious behavior to discover whether an email or IP address poses a risk to your app. These endpoints can answer questions like: • Does that email address originate with an email anonymizer? • Is that IP address a Tor exit node? • Where is this user on the map? • Has this user ever been implicated in a known attack in the past?

Use this information to flag or screen signups to your service, to detect if unusual activity is originating from a suspicious address, and to generally arm yourself with additional risk assessment when you need it.

You can get started by creating an account if you don't have one, and either creating a new Developer Sandbox or using the API key assigned to your existing apps in Sqreen. https://my.sqreen.io/new-application

Once you've got an API key, head over to the documentation to see how to get started quickly. https://doc.sqreen.io/reference

Of course, we'll be watching here for your feedback and comments!
