• I built a privacy-first crypto portfolio tracker after the Ledger breach

  Back in the day I used the now-defunct site coin.fyi or coinexplorers.com to track my portfolio. When they disappeared, I looked at the alternatives — and none of them adapted to my necessities. The main one: a private, encrypted portfolio management platform in the style of ProtonMail. One where the service provider itself cannot see what I hold. So I decided to create my own.... - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• Must actively fund open source AI [pdf]

  Insurance companies basically are banks, in that while they make low profit margins they wield such vast amounts of capital, some of which they invest in, they might as well be financial service institutions.

• Show HN: DaedalOS – Desktop Environment in the Browser

  Thanks! Credit to Webamp for the amazing Winamp recreation. And JS-DOS/DOSBox for the DOS emulator that lets me run Doom and many other Shareware games which I keep in the same folder as Doom. It was nice to have a few Webby nominations, but unfortunely I didn't get picked this year. I will try again next year and until I win. https://dustinbrett.com/?url=/Users/Public/Documents/Games/DOS%20Bundles. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

As for running Linux, I can indeed do this with v86 and I have a small linux image which is embedded into my project. https://dustinbrett.com/?url=/System/linux.bin. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

  Demo: https://dustinbrett.com Hey HN! I've been building my passion project daedalOS for over 4 years now.

My hope is to keep working on this project for the rest of my life and continue to evolve... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
