Show HN: Anonymous Age Verification 12 by jwally | 11 comments So I'm not an expert in this area, but here's an attempt at cost effective, anonymous, age verification flow that probably covers ~70% of use cases in the United States. The basic premise is to leverage your bank (who already has had to perform KYC on you to open an account) to attest to your age for age-restricted merchant sites (pornhub, gambling, etc) without sharing any more information than necessary. Flow works like this: 1) You go to gambling.com 2) They request you to verify your age 3) You choose "Bank Verification" 4) You trigger a WebAuthn Credential Creation flow 5) gambling.com gives you a string to copy ------------- 6) You log into your bank 7) You go to bank.com/age-verify 8) You paste in the string you were given 9) The bank verifies it/you and creates a signed payload with your age-claims (over_18: true, over_21: false) 10) You copy this and go back to gambling.com --------------- 11) Yo...

Show HN: Play Pokémon to unlock your Wayland session 16 by anajimi | 3 comments Hello everyone! I've created a gameboy emulator to unlock my Wayland session and wanted to share this project to everyone here! I've been a Linux enthusiast since I was a kid. What always captivated me was the freedom to customize my system exactly the way I wanted. With Wayland, we've reached an incredible level of performance. It's like turning your operating system into a video game! I've always been fascinated by the blend of fun and the serious, technical nature of an OS. That’s what inspired me to create this project. I started by studying Wayland, its protocol and how to build a compositor. Then I became particularly intrigued by the concept of a locker, which reminded me a bit of an escape game. That’s when I thought: how cool would it be to solve a puzzle to unlock your session, instead of just typing a password? Since I’ve worked with emulators in the past and I’m a huge Pokém...

Show HN: TraceRoot – Open-source agentic debugging for distributed services 11 by xinweihe | 0 comments Hey Xinwei and Zecheng here, we are the authors of TraceRoot ( https://github.com/traceroot-ai/traceroot ). TraceRoot ( https://traceroot.ai ) is an open-source debugging platform that helps engineers fix production issues faster by combining structured traces, logs, source code contexts and discussions in Github PRs, issues and Slack channels, etc. with AI Agents. At the heart are our lightweight Python ( https://github.com/traceroot-ai/traceroot-sdk ) and TypeScript ( https://github.com/traceroot-ai/traceroot-sdk-ts ) SDKs - they can hook into your app using OpenTelemetry and captures logs and traces. These are either sent to a local Jaeger ( https://www.jaegertracing.io/ ) + SQLite backend or to our cloud backend, where we correlate them into a single view. From there, our custom agent takes over. The agent builds a heterogeneous execution tree that merges spans, logs, and GitHub...
