vjay15··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026)
the font is pretty small plus its not pleasing to read and get info from, the sections should be made bigger to indicate its a section or maybe not even the size some sort of indicator should be there. plus the text near "AGENT LOOP" that goes vertically is hindering with the existing text
vjay15··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (August 2026)
I appreciate how cool the website looks but its not very readable friendly :(

Will be nice to have a minimal documentation site tho!

vjay15··on Late.sh – a command-line Clubhouse for computer people
this is amazing
vjay15··on Software Internals Book Club
I remember reading Tanenbaum, the dino book right? It is amazing
vjay15··on Multi-stroke text effect in CSS
This is so freaking cool
vjay15··on How OpenAI delivers low-latency voice AI at scale
This is such a good write up, WebRTC is one of the coolest things ever! It's kinda genius to use the VIP approach, SFU is also pretty scalable but now they dont even have to do that
vjay15··on You can beat the binary search
Surprisingly simple concept!
vjay15··on Where the goblins came from
this was such a funny read
vjay15··on Mistral Medium 3.5
Mistral is playing the long game here ngl, lower sized models, lower costs, overall good enough performance!
vjay15··on Google Flow Music
The songs it generates is so corporate music pilled and generic, it has no creativity of its own and even if we try to make it do something creative, it generates the same EDM style beat with no taste, well I guess stock music users rejoice, you dont need to use stock music anymore, you can create endless stock music
vjay15··on SDF Public Access Unix System
Omg, we can access even ancient OSes, this is amazing!
vjay15··on State of Kdenlive
kdenlive is really good
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
but api keys arent meant to be revoked once used right?
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
Yes, it's just a random long password used to access public APIs
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
OHHH that makes sense!
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
no this is just a POC, I haven't implemented any of it
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
Ideally API key shouldn't contain anything regarding the account or any info right? it's meant to be an opaque string, is what I found in most of the other articles I read. Please do let me know if I am wrong about this assumption
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
fixed it in the blog, thanks for pointing it out amelius ;-;
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
yes, you are right onei, it is supposed to be random string instead of hex, I am sorry I made that mistake
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
hash of the API key just like passwords
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
if not for typo, then I can use for secret scanning then :)
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
It is alright, I am learning a lot from them as well, healthy criticism is always useful :) I am very glad that you found this a great write up ^_^
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
I can't understand what you are trying to say :o
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
I don't understand your question :o
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE IN THE MAIN PAGE OF HACKERNEWS THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS (╥﹏╥)
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
it's just an added benefit, I don't have to make a DB call to verify that :)
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
yea... sorry I still am not the best explainer but that is the approach, I just wanted to have a shorter hash in the meta shard that is it. The approach 3 is an attempt by me to generate my own base62/base70 encoder ;-;
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
Ahhhh I see, I didn't think about it that way too, this could help us a lot yea!!!
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
yes this is the approach!
vjay15··on My adventure in designing API keys
thank you so much ram chip :) I didnt know that!
