Show HN: Enc – A modern and friendly CLI alternative to GnuPG
Enc is a CLI tool for encryption, a modern and friendly alternative to GnuPG. It is easy to use, secure by default and can encrypt and decrypt files using password or encryption keys, manage and download keys, and sign data. Our goal was to make encryption available to all engineers without the need to learn a lot of new words, concepts, and commands. It is the most beginner-friendly CLI tool for encryption, and keeping it that way is our top priority.
Show HN: Log collector that runs on a $4 VPS
Hey guys, I'm building erlog to try and solve problems with logging. While trying to add logs to my application, I couldn't find any lightweight log platform which was easy to set up without adding tons of dependencies to my code, or configuring 10,000 files.<p>ErLog is just a simple go web server which batch inserts json logs into an sqlite3 server. Through tuning sqlite3 and batching inserts, I find I can get around 8k log insertions/sec which is fast enough for small projects.<p>This is just an MVP, and I plan to add more features once I talk to users. If anyone has any problems with logging, feel free to leave a comment and I'd love to help you out.

Show HN: DSLCad – a programming language and interpreter for building 3D models
Hey HN.
Over the last half a year I have been working on a 3D CAD programming language called DSLCAD. Today I am here to show my first release!<p>It is heavily inspired by OpenSCAD which got me hooked on the idea of a CAD programming language and what it can do.<p>Please let me know what you think. Ill be in the thread to answer any questions you may have.

Show HN: Spaghettify – A VSCode Extension to make your code worse with AI
Recently, I saw Github Next Code Brushes (<a href="https://githubnext.com/projects/code-brushes" rel="nofollow">https://githubnext.com/projects/code-brushes</a>) which is a VSCode extension that can use AI to do things like make your code more readable, add types, etc.<p>This inspired me: what if there was an extension that could use AI to make your code worse as well?<p>Meet Spaghettify. An extension I developed that can do things like:<p>- Obscure your code<p>- Introduce a bug<p>- Make the variable names way too descriptive<p>- Use nonsymmetrical whitespace<p>- Add irrelevant/rambling comments<p>- Document the code with emoji<p>- Document the code in any style (Dirty Limerick, Fast Talkin' 1930s Gangster)<p>I built this extension over the last couple of days and released it in collaboration with BCAD.one. It's available on the VSCode Marketplace, you will need an OpenAI API Key to use it. You can grab it here:<p>(<a href="https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=BCAD.spaghettify" rel="nofollow">https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=BCAD.spa...</a>)<p>Code here:<p><a href="https://github.com/BeforeCutieAfterDoggo/spaghettify">https://github.com/BeforeCutieAfterDoggo/spaghettify</a>

Show HN: PodText.ai – Search anything said on a podcast, highlight text to play
Hi HN, wanted to share a project that I’ve been working on recently.<p>PodText allows users to find anything said on a podcast. You can also listen and share clips to a specific part of the podcast audio, simply by highlighting the text of that part. Currently there are just over 25k podcast episodes and I’m adding a lot more in the coming weeks (yes my GPU bill is painful).<p>In order to monetize it, I’m building a sponsorship database to help sponsors find podcasts and vice versa. This will be sold in the form of a $99/month “PodText Business” subscription. I bet I could charge a lot more to large sponsors but I’ll tweak that as I talk to potential customers.<p>Right now the UI is very bare bones (doesn’t even have pagination) but I’ll polish it once the data pipeline is working well. Please let me know if you run into any bugs or have any questions about the site or business model.<p>PS: I'm a regular on HN using my real name but can't post under that account since my employer will fire me if they found out about this project :-)
