Show HN: SpotVortex helps SRE teams push more Kubernetes capacity onto Spot (github.com)
I built SpotVortex for a simple reason: most teams want more Spot savings, but they do not want to compromise service safety to get them.<p>SpotVortex runs inside the cluster and controls Spot at the node-pool level. It watches market risk and pool health, then decides when a pool should grow, spot,...

Show HN: Jurassic Park Unix System Kubernetes Viewer (github.com)
I made an app that allows you to view Kubernetes resources just like the unix system in Jurassic Park :) Unlikely to be used for anything serious, but with the tools available today I couldn&#x27;t let the idea slip. Just a bit of nostalgic vibe.

Researchers Discover 14,000 Routers Wrangled Into Never-Before-Seen Botnet (it.slashdot.org)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Researchers say they have uncovered a takedown-resistant botnet of 14,000 routers and other network devices -- primarily made by Asus -- that have been conscripted into a proxy network that anonymously carries traffic used for cybercrime. The ma...

Show HN: An offline-first expense tracker on Cloudflare D1 and SQLite WASM (github.com)
I built pancakemaker for myself as a dead-simple personal expense tracker that works fully offline and syncs when you&#x27;re back online.<p>The core idea: SQLite runs in the browser via WASM as the local store, and Cloudflare D1 handles cloud sync — no traditional backend needed.<p>The whole stack ...

A Swiss e-voting pilot was suspended after officials couldn't decrypt 2,048 ballots because the USB keys needed to unlock them failed. "Three USB sticks were used, all with the correct code, but none of them worked," spokesperson Marco Greiner told the Swiss Broadcasting Corporation's Swissinfo serv...

Show HN: Another SQLite editor in browser powered by WASM and AI (sql.computelite.com)
Hey HN,<p>I guess this is just another SQLITE editor powered by WASM, I created this to help me write queries faster with AI like we have autocomplete in VS Code. I also added few features which are important to me as data scientist:<p>Copy results to clipboard, I dont want to always export to excel...

Show HN: StreamHouse – Open-source Kafka alternative (github.com)
Hey HN,<p>I built StreamHouse, an open-source streaming platform that replaces Kafka&#x27;s broker-managed storage with direct S3 writes. The goal: same semantics, fraction of the cost.<p>How it works: Producers batch and compress records, a stateless server manages partition routing and metadata (S...
