New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Wachy – A UI for eBPF-based performance debugging
Show HN: Wachy – A UI for eBPF-based performance debugging
14 by vivek-jain | 0 comments on Hacker News.
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. 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: Zipy.ai - Like Sentry + Hotjar, but with less noise

Hey HN commmunity, Karthik here! Super stoked to announce the launch of Zipy today. Launching the product that you've been so dearly working on for months is like sending your newborn to school for the first time. Excitement to nervousness, anxiety to thrill, all sorts of emotions hit you at the same time. But the entire team of Zipy is confidently looking forward to the feedback you guys have in store for the beautiful product we’ve built. In community we trust! Over the past decade, from being a Web Development Intern to a UX Designer and a Product Manager, I have seen the struggles that both Frontend Dev and Product teams face in terms of understanding user behavior and debugging customer issues. Web technologies evolved significantly, but the debugging process still remained in the stone age. With Zipy, we are trying to change this. Zipy is a product that is primarily of the developers, by the developers and for the developers, essentially built to scratch our own itch, and thus, we've carefully handcrafted various workflows specifically for engineering, product, and support teams. We have been extremely lucky to get support from a bunch of awesome early adopters and partners, who were instrumental in carving our product experience. Hope you all find Zipy very useful. Please give it a try and do share your feedback here: https://ift.tt/SCclQNr Check out our Website: https://zipy.ai Quick 15 minute Live Demo: https://ift.tt/tdRDrAo Join our Discord Server: https://ift.tt/5cIQCo7 Benefits of using Zipy: Install in a minute VueJS, React, Angular, Ember, and any javascript web app support ▶ Replay customer sessions with errors in real-time Dev tools with Stack Trace, Console Logs, and Network Request Response details Search error sessions by customer name, URL, email ID, and more. Easy Slack Integration and Alerting Special Coupon for HN Community: 'ZIPYPH1MONTH' for a FREE 1 month access to our Startup Plan. Looking forward to your feedback and support. Fix what matters, Karthik and Team Zipy.

Run `ssh devzat.hackclub.com` to try it out! The repo is here: https://ift.tt/OJgTkqe (golang). It has markdown and emoji support, DMs, channels, and it can show images too. You can send code, and it gets syntax highlighted (you can change the theme). You can ping people like so: @user and it sends them a \a, which should play an audible sound if the terminal allows it. There's inbuilt games and rainbow names and a lot of other small things I don't remember right now. You might find the auth system interesting: it's based on a hash of ssh pubkey (bans use that and a hash of IP, so it isn't so easy to get around a ban) Also an interesting issue: bots that go around trying to brute force ssh into random IPs with common usernames. My current solution is banning if rapid successive joins are detected.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: I made a privacy-first minimalist Backblaze
Show HN: I made a privacy-first minimalist Backblaze

Creator here. I was looking for something as simple as Backblaze Personal [1] but privacy focused and open source. This is my attempt to build that. Uses PyQt6 [2] for the GUI and Pyinstaller [3] for creating the platform specific binaries. The backup engine under the hood is Restic [4]. The server code is written in Laravel [5]. All the code is on GitHub [6]. I actually really like Backblaze (even use B2 for this offering behind the scenes) so this isn't meant to throw shade their way. Just wanted a private open source alternative. Something like Bitwarden but for backups.
