Do you hold cryptocurrency? Have you received a letter telling you that you must register with a so-called "Digital Asset Compliance Portal"? If so, it's time to hit the brakes, because it sounds like someone is trying to scam you. Read more in my article on the Hot for Security blog.

Show HN: I made a private self-destructing image hosting site in Golang

Hacker News - Tue, 08/04/2026 - 4:39am

So I'm a junior Go dev and I made a small site that allows me to share images with someone privately and securely, and give me control over how many times the private link can be shared and how long the image will be accessible for.

There are similar services to this one, but they are either convoluted with ads, or require sign-up, or expect you to fill out a survey or something.

picburn is small, safe, and has no interest (nor the code or the server space) for storing your uploads.

give it a try if it fits your usecase and let me know what you think.

Note: there was a typo in the url

Show HN: Doomscroll GitHub Instead of TikTok

Hacker News - Tue, 08/04/2026 - 4:38am

GitHub is full of awesome projects and I love discovering things other people have built, but GitHub's UX for discovering projects is honestly just not good.

So I built it myself: https://roamers.dev

It's an endless feed of GitHub projects, free for you to roam around and discover. You can either sign in with GitHub and tune it to your interests, or just browse anonymously.

Ask HN: Has anyone tried a minimal AGENTS.md that grows with you repo?

Hacker News - Tue, 08/04/2026 - 4:32am

I've been starting new repos over and over again, kept a list of personal skills too. But recently I have been thinking of a different approach: a "Minimal AGENTS.md" (or CLAUDE.md if you use claude)

The idea is inspired by "Organic Architecture" theory by architect Frank Lloyd Wright where a building will dynamically grow / change with people using it.

For example here are a few lines I put in the minimal AGENTS.md (conceptual)

---

1. Always keep a README.md in any folder greater than 5 files, and update the README.md of immediate and parent folders when changing.

2. Submit for code review using [{my preference of ai code reviewer venders}] and loop until code resolves. Ok to push back and dismiss. Do TDD if code reviewer found critical bug you agree to

3. Keep the memory of lesson learned in .memory/.md and update them, consolidate to skill if hit the same lesson more than 3 times.

---

And usually it helps kind of start the growth of the repo as I further develop it.

has anyone try this kind of approach?
