Show HN: Wachy – A UI for eBPF-based performance debugging
eBPF is an amazing technology that allows safely running user-supplied functions at pretty much arbitrary probe points in a kernel/user space context. Much has been written about how amazing this feature is for kernel observability. But as someone who writes user space code, what I find even more amazing is the support for tracing arbitrary user space programs, with no code changes and low overhead.<p>However, doing in-depth analysis can get complicated and time-consuming. My goal with wachy was to make this debugging significantly easier/faster to use, by displaying traces in a TUI next to the source code and allowing for interactive drilldown analysis. If you get a chance, check out the start of the demo video since (AFAIK) it's quite unique and gives a much clearer idea than I can provide with just text.

Show HN: Fast way to build digital presence across multiple platforms
Hello,<p>I am a tech blogger and last year I wanted to have my own website for writing blogs and doing content marketing.<p>Since I love programming, I could have built the site by myself but I wanted to test the no-code solutions, so after spending sometime researching I ended up going with Wordpress. However i found it tedious and for some reasons, hard and slow.<p>Anyways, I tried other platforms like Wix too. Problem then came was I had to share my work on social media platforms to get more readers and also post it on hashnode and Medium.
It was becoming time consuming and monotonous process.<p>Hence, I decided to build a solution and the result is Leansence.<p>It is geared towards bloggers and content marketers.
It provides an easy to use website builder with the ability to write blogs and add products, with unlimited bandwidth.<p>You can also directly post your blog to Medium(hashnode and dev.to support will be added soon) and also share it on twitter( can also split it into threads).<p>It also has social media tools so you can schedule your Twitter posts and threads.
Hence you are getting website builder, blogging ability, as well as social media tools.<p>I have great ideas for the future and any feedback would be appreciated.

Show HN: Throw – The new space for asking and answering questions anonymously
Hello HN community,<p>For the past year we’ve been working on this disruptive new thing. It’s about people, community, communication and truth.<p>Throw is the new space for asking and answering questions anonymously. We believe that in today’s world (both online and offline) content in communication exchanges is strongly influenced by the personas, profiles and façades people maintain/upkeep/safeguard socially, ideologically and on relationships.<p>From the way people post on Instagram the life they want others to believe they have, or the way people behave on thanksgiving with family, or at work, or with friends; on every social setting and interaction to some degree acting and behaving according to that setting and the people they interact with. These dynamics influence the content itself, as people don’t just respond to a question like computers do. What ends up happening is that the responder comes up with the answer by blending the possibly objective answer with feelings, setting, desires, commitments, ideologies, fears, insecurities, etc (social pressure or social agenda).<p>Something is missing between social media and the traditional Q&A…<p>Throw addresses this by creating a space free from this social agenda. Thus focusing strictly on the content exchanged and providing a safe, comfortable and unbiased space where people can ask and answer anything freely with no bias, fears or strings attached.<p>Not only may Throw be used for personal and private questions and answers. But the power of crowdsourcing allows for a great variety of use cases like market research, validation of content and ideas, trivia, and much more. Serious matters and also just for fun…<p>It’s a query marketplace which means that “throwers” (people who ask questions) pay a fee proportional to the answers they need and in turn “catchers” (who catch them and respond) get compensated. This way we guarantee every user gets as many responses as he/she needs.<p>As for dealing with anonymity, we have built a sophisticated moderation protocol to neutralize and quickly ban people that contribute negatively as it is a priority people feel safe and comfortable in this community.<p>We have worked very hard to create a delightful product and are currently very close to rolling out our app to the market.<p>If this is something that may be of your interest or you’d like to be one of the first to test it out, you may keep an eye for our launch and other news by subscribing to our waitlist. <a href="https://www.throwapp.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.throwapp.com</a><p>Also, if you have questions there is additional information in the FAQs section on our web page that could be of help.<p>If you still haven't looked at our explainer video I encourage you to see it as it's quite fun and describes pretty well what we are doing. <a href="https://youtu.be/3f9RcVVpkNA" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/3f9RcVVpkNA</a><p>Finally, we really appreciate any feedback we can get (of any kind). So if there's anything you like, don't like, or any other thought about Throw, we'd love to hear about it! You may post a comment below or through the contact section on the web page.<p><i>Be curious and dare to know!</i><p>Thank you!
