Ask HN: What would you expect from the perfect Node.js security layer?
Any ideas/thoughts on what the perfect Node.js security layer should look like? Real-time protection against the zero days, OWASP top 10? Shall it be per-server/per-user/per-app configurable? npm malware scanning? What else?

‘Prove you are not a robot’: how the Captcha scam captures your computer
Unlike familiar Captcha tests, this con asks you to press a series of keys. And that’s a way in for fraudsters to install malicious software
You are looking for some gifts for Christmas and want to support small businesses when you shop. When you visit the site of one you’ve heard good things about you are asked to verify that you are human.
Instead of clicking on a series of images, or typing letters that appear, just as you have seen before, you are asked to press a series of keys and then press enter.

Show HN: Four bite-sized chess puzzle games built on micro-boards
Most chess apps try to replicate the classic 64-square experience. Over the last few years, I’ve been doing the opposite—breaking chess down into fast, bite-sized mobile games on smaller boards, each designed to isolate and gamify a single skill:
Firstchess: Bite-sized lessons to learn the fundamentals on a compact board.
Halfchess: Focused purely on endgame thinking on a smaller grid.
Phantom Chess: Blind/memory-based chess on a mini board.
Schmess: Real-time speed chess where multiple pieces move simultaneously.
You can try all four live apps at https://halfchess.com.
I plan to build more chess/poker mini games if I can figure out a distribution for these. If you know any media outlets or micro influencers who can cover my games, do let me know.
