Recently I figured Kademlia is how bittorrent achieves trackerless torrents. I used bittorrent-dht[0][1] to build simple decentralised ride hailing app(was able implement POC with end to end booking). I wonder what other modern problems can be solved by this technology

Huge fan of Nucypher. Recently At one hackathon, I used your proxy re-encryption to build decentralised KYC system. Amazing work you guys are doing!

mohitmun | 7 years ago | on: Ask HN: What are you working on this weekend?
I'm working two projects as of now. Both solves my own problem
1. https://github.com/mohitmun/howienduphere/
Problem: When browsing internet, I often come across really great blog/project/website etc. Its always good go back to origin of where I found it(let it be HN/reddit thread or some obscure blog). Most of the time I don't remember original source where did I find it mostly because its either in my pocket list or lost in dozens of tabs. this chrome extension will keep of all links i visited and their referrer(full urls not domain).
2. https://github.com/mohitmun/punter
Problem: Being rails developer, I love ORM(debatable). its very useful to quickly inspect data or run some manipulation. recently I was manipulating some CSV files, as well as sqlite db. I hate writing raw SQL for simple queries. so wanted to create a command-line tool where i can run simple queries (table.count, table.where(id > 3)) and get results. this should also work with CSV or any other db

mohitmun | 7 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do you get your daily HN brief?
I have created two IFTTT applets with some custom rules. For example if any showhn post exceeds 10 points, it will send message on my telegram channel(https://t.me/mohithn). Applet link link: https://ifttt.com/applets/GfnePAhL-if-new-show-hn-with-10-po...
I'm using this amazing https://hnrss.org feed for applets.
