Show HN: Pika – Simple blogging software
Hello HN!<p>I wanted to share something we at Good Enough (<a href="https://goodenough.us" rel="nofollow">https://goodenough.us</a>) built over the past month.<p>Pika! <a href="https://pika.page" rel="nofollow">https://pika.page</a><p>I know, I know, who needs more blogging software? In this case, _I DO_. I find that the big players in the market have a distracting number of dials and knobs. I greatly appreciate the indieweb players in the space, but none of those solutions quite fit my way of blogging and so I'd bounce from one to the other to the other. I tried SSGs and my goodness do I dislike the experience of maintaining a website with them. I dislike the SSG experience so much that before convincing the team to build Pika with me, I was actually blogging by writing straight HTML!<p>Pika is about simplifying blogging down to writing. Pika provides a great editor that doesn't _require_ Markdown (but accepts it) and a light bit of easy-to-use customizability without distracting you. With that baseline, we hope Pika can be a nice place for semi-technical folks to start or continue their blogging journey without all of the fiddly bits. In the longer term we'd like to make blogging more and more accessible to those who are non-technical, and we will grow our feature set and UX accordingly.<p>We would love to hear thoughts from anyone that is an active blogger or considering starting a blog. Also, if you know someone who is on the hunt for easy, beautiful blogging software we'd appreciate you letting them know about Pika. Thank you!

Show HN: CPU Prices on eBay
Tech stack: Go + templ + htmx<p>There are some rough edges but this combo is quite refreshing after React. The best thing is that I could omit npm from my stack. Having just a monolith (Go) server greatly simplifies things if you're an indie dev.

Show HN: Hookdeck Event Gateway
Hey HN, I’m Maurice, co-founder and CTO at Hookdeck.<p>You might remember Alex and me from August 4th, 2021, when we announced Hookdeck as a “webhook infrastructure”. <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28063597">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28063597</a><p>Since then, a lot has happened. We’ve onboarded thousands of developers, and through their cleverness, we eventually realized that we could serve a much bigger purpose in your event-driven stack. Events are now essential to system interoperability since we spend just as much time building as integrating software nowadays, so we’ve dedicated the last six months to building an Event Gateway.<p>Yeah, I know, that’s a new concept. So, let’s define it - The Event Gateway is a superset of our original work on webhooks management. It builds on that foundation to introduce support for more use cases, such as outbounds webhooks, integrating 3rd party providers, asynchronous APIs (IoT, SDKs, customer-facing endpoints), and more. It’s an API gateway for asynchronous, stateful, and interoperable requests. Hookdeck handles security (handshake and signature verification), spike protection, queuing, observability, alerting, logs, transformations, filtering, and much more.<p>I wrote a blog post introducing the event gateway: <a href="https://hookdeck.com/blog/introducing-the-event-gateway" rel="nofollow">https://hookdeck.com/blog/introducing-the-event-gateway</a><p>I am eager to read your thoughts and feedback. Let’s find out what we can do better.
Show HN: The HTTP Garden – A Parser Vulnerability Research Tool
I wrote this tool during an internship at Narf Industries in 2023. It's a REPL that allows for quickly developing, testing, and fuzzing for HTTP request smuggling attack payloads.<p>I started the internship having never worked with web servers, and have now found over 100 HTTP implementation bugs. I attribute this mostly to the ease of experimentation in the Garden. REPL-oriented fuzzing is just a really good interface for finding parsing bugs. It's pretty neat to able to run a differential fuzzer, categorize and display all the discovered discrepancies, then let a human pick through them and interact with fuzz targets to test whether the bugs are exploitable.<p>Some notable server combinations in which we discovered new request smuggling attacks include Google Cloud <-> Node.js, Akamai <-> Node.js, [almost anything] <-> LiteSpeed, and OpenBSD relayd <-> [anything].<p>We also found an infinite loop DoS in Cesanta Mongoose that affects all configurations, and a null pointer dereference that can crash any OpenBSD httpd server that uses FastCGI.

Show HN: CLI for generating PDFs for offline reading
I've always thought that extensive reading was best suited for the realm of paper. As a result, I've created a command-line interface (CLI) tailored for my own use and decided to make it open source. I welcome any feedback you may have.<p>[Edit] Sample PDF :: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n7M1TKOptSsYiibrbvV_Yojx53TK3k5E/view" rel="nofollow">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n7M1TKOptSsYiibrbvV_Yojx53T...</a>

Show HN: Visit the front page of Hacker News on a random day
Hi HN. I was surprised that there wasn't a feature here that lets you go back in time to the front page of Hacker News on a random day...so I made one. <a href="http://randomhackernews.com" rel="nofollow">http://randomhackernews.com</a> is a simple HTML page that navigates you to the front page of HN on a random day between today and February 19, 2007 (the oldest date I could find with content).<p>I made this for myself, but figured others may find some interest in it.
