agrinman··on Engineering with Enclaves
yes agree! we use Rust and ffi into this C library, but wish there was a native Rust SDK as well

agrinman··on Rethinking Mobile App Monitoring
how does logrocket handle things like data transmission over slower/non-wifi connections?
agrinman··on A New AWS SDK for Rust
It's basically already here (in the form of a plugin): https://www.jetbrains.com/rust/ I've been enjoying it quite a bit.
agrinman··on Show HN: Bigroom.video – better video social events
I’ve been using bigroom for a few weeks now to catch up with friends and family. It makes an unbelievable difference when you can have multiple conversations. It’s almost like you’re at a dinner table! Highly recommend this. Zoom feels like a work meeting, and this feels like a social gathering.
agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
I needed a tool like this where I could host the server myself (inside the corp. network) and I realized it would be valuable to have unified CLI that works both with hosted and self-hosted servers.
agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
Got it. Currently this use case is not supported on the same subdomain, but you could definitely open up two different tunnels (on different subdomains) to do this. Definitely not ideal, so we'll look into adding support for this.
agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
Thanks for the feedback. Full transparency our only documentation is the website, dashboard, and of course mainly the --help flag in the CLI. Part of this is because we've kept the first release very minimal and simple, so there's not so much to document (yet).

To answer your questions here though,

- multiple ports on the same domain: currently no, but this is definitely on the list.

- https tunneling: we enforce TLS on all subdomains and handle that for you via a wildcard cert. We actually don't support non-https currently (and may never if there's no demand for it).

agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
Hi there! Thanks for the feedback. We actually do support sub-domains, via, the --subdomain flag! :)

Raw TCP support is in the works, and will come soon!

agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
we built it in rust and open sourced the server so you can host it yourself (when you need to!)
agrinman··on Show HN: Tunnelto.dev – expose localhost with a public URL (built in Rust)
Hi HN!

I'm Alex, one of the creators of tunnelto.dev. We built this service because it's crucial to be able to test your website, app, or backend server as if it were in production. We built tunnelto.dev is both a free service (hosted by us) and an open source project (that you can host yourself). Both the tunnelto.dev CLI and server are open source on GitHub[1], built in Rust.

Since you can host it yourself, there's no vendor lock-in...perfect for use in the enterprise when you can't breach the corporate network. Tunnelto.dev is free even with customized sub-domains. We only charge a small monthly fee if you want to reserve specific domains for yourself on our hosted version.

Happy to answer any questions you might have!

agrinman··on Launch HN: Motion (YC W20) – defense against online distractions and addictions
You could effectively block the network connectivity for them though by mapping domains to 127.0.0.1. Why wouldn't that be just as good? nextdns.io does a really good job of running such a service.
agrinman··on Launch HN: Motion (YC W20) – defense against online distractions and addictions
What about a DNS based approach on iOS? You don't need MDM, just a VPN extension. You could send push notifications when your DNS server detects a site to block and mimic the same UX you have with a browser extension.
agrinman··on An airdrop that preserves recipient privacy [pdf]
I believe you can have the airdrop tool [0] output the raw bytes that you need to sign with your private key. Still not fool proof but makes it more transparent what you're actually doing with the key.

agrinman··on How to Make $80k per Month on the Apple App Store (2017)
I'd be curious to learn how much of that $80k/mo was returned by Apple to consumers (and not actually paid out to the developer). It's hard to imagine such a scheme would last long on the top grossing page without intervention...
agrinman··on Why Parse failed after raising $7M
This title is misleading, I don’t think this article actually describes ‘why’ parse failed. The only reason is that it was losing money, but there’s no analysis of why that was the case.
