Show HN: I wrote a load balancer with XDP and Go
2 by d4v1dc0l3s | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Facebook's Katran looked too scary (and I don't do C++), so I thought I would investigate using XDP/eBPF to redirect packets at high speed and Go to do the control plane work of health-checking backed servers and managing configuration. With luck the resulting binary should be easy to deploy by non-developers. It's still not mature, but seems to work. Code was written in a very exploratory manner, and I'm not a developer so it is quite shocking at the moment, but I aim to improve it. It is intended to be horizontally scalable with ECMP and has been tested on service providing 40Gb/s with a single (hardware) node at ~30% CPU utilisation.

Show HN: I made a privacy-first minimalist Backblaze
4 by bimbashrestha | 0 comments on Hacker News.
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.

Show HN: Clipton, Clipboard Manager
2 by madprops | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Clipboard managers are an essential tool for me. On windows I used Ditto. On linux I used CopyQ. But after a while I started encountering issues. So I made my own manager based on rofi. If you have linux and rofi this might work nicely for you. It consists of a small c program and a python script. https://ift.tt/3nh9Qkc
