Taler seems cool,but this is a huge no no: Ensure your wallet is regularly online to avoid losing money due to expiration!
We do need to expire cryptographic keys eventually, there is no sane alternative to this. Now, note that "regularly online" here could mean once every X years depending on how the system is configured.
OneBusAway A suite of real-time public transit projects that are used by millions of people every day. OneBusAway helps people find out when and where their bus will arrive, and provides them with a trip planner, too. OBA is used by transit riders everywhere from Seattle to New York City; Adelaide, Australia to Buenos Aires, Argentina. In addition to developers, we would also benefit greatly from product management a…
Plain Old Recipe: takes online recipes and removes the cruft. https://www.plainoldrecipe.com https://github.com/poundifdef/plainoldrecipe Things I want to do: 1. Improved print-friendly format 2. Ability to format to arbitrary sizes (for example, format for index cards) 3. Smarter layouts. For example, if a recipe says "add the chicken stock" in a step it would be great if it could identify how much ("1 cup") like so…
I'm skeptical that this does anything. I'd wager that just about nobody is sitting around with all this energy waiting to contribute to a project they've never used and just heard about in an HN thread. I'm sure you get some commitments of people who say they will help. Just like people say they'll pay for your product once you build it and people who say they'll go to an event 6 months from now. It's hard enough to…
What a real contribution to this thread. You'd wager that nobody finds this useful? I wager that nobody finds your comment useful.
Specifically, I'm looking for help from some people who have experience with reversing on the Mac OS platform, and I'd like to address this issue, which is about how binary relocations handle memory addresses on Mac OS.
https://github.com/Zxilly/go-size-analyzer/issues/242
gsa obtains the memory address by calculating the address expression in the dwarf, and subsequently looks for the static content in the binary that actually corresponds to the memory address, but when the macho file contains relocations, the calculated memory address needs to be relocated with the same logic to get the correct binary content. I've been working on this problem for a while, but I'm really not familiar with the macho structure and I don't own a macbook, I'd like to get help from developers who have experience in this area.
We're building open source tools to listen underwater, focused on monitoring endangered orcas (killer whales) along the west coast of North America. We operate a network of hydrophones that anyone can listen to live (https://live.orcasound.net/). We have a community of over 6,000 citizen scientists who use our tools to help us detect orcas & other marine life. Short-term our goal is to help conservation, long term we want to contribute to scientific research (orca behavior & communication).
It's an incredibly broad project that ranges from:
- hardware (building hydrophones & deploying electronics underwater)
- embedded systems / IoT (capturing & streaming data from our locations)
- live streaming & audio processing
- machine learning & data science (our dataset is nearly 10tb, all open data)
- mapping & GIS
- full-stack web
- design, UX, UI
Tech stack: Python, Elixir, Javascript/Typescript, React, C#, PostgreSQL
We need so many things that there's almost certainly something you can contribute to, regardless of skill level.

I love this project! I immediately made an iphone shortcut so I can convert any page I'm currently to a plainoldrecipe. Sharing in case it is useful for anyone else: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/86bfd549ae6c421ca04b5a99320...
KiCad EDA - https://kicad.org KiCad is a popular open-source EDA tool used by engineers and designers across the globe. We're always open to contributions from experienced C++ developers, especially those who are also familiar with the world of electrical engineering / PCB design. Check out our developer landing page[1] to find the developers email list and contribution guides. We accept merge requests on GitLab[2] a…
Kicad is amazing. I was trying to contribute a while ago. But setting everything up and compiling is a bit tricky. I think I will give it another shot.
Coding assistant with localhost web UI(can be used as a CLI tool as well), developed entirely with typescript, nodejs, and React (for UI).
This is my current personal pet project, and I'm looking for someone who could try to use it on a real code base other than TS/JS and let me know via GitHub if there are issues.
I'm open to contributions as well, this project is quite fun to work on.:)
Fil-C - a memory safe implementation of C and C++. Written in C and C++. Need most help just porting C programs to Fil-C. Often porting is as easy as recompiling, but sometimes there are compatibility issues to resolve similar to if you were porting C code to a new CPU or OS. Could also use help with compiler hacking (llvm expertise required) and runtime hacking (experience with high level language runtimes required)…
Are use-after-free and such bugs detected at compile time? There are still some cases that scan-build, cppcheck and other static analysis tools do not find.
I don’t think it’s possible to catch all use after frees at compile time precisely. Like, you could have a checker that catches all errors but also rejects valid programs or you can have a checker that accepts all valid programs but doesn’t find all the bugs. To be precise it has to be at runtime, and that’s what Fil-C does.
