A fun toy memory allocator (not thread safe, that's a future TODO). I also wanted to explain how I approached it, so I also wrote a tutorial blog post (~20 minute read) covering the code which you can find the link to in the README.

This past quarter has been awash with sophisticated npm supply chain attacks like [Shai-Hulud](https://www.cisa.gov/news-events/alerts/2025/09/23/widesprea...() and the [Chalk/debug Compromise](https://www.wiz.io/blog/widespread-npm-supply-chain-attack-b...). This CLI helps protect users from recently compromised packages by only downloading packages that have been public for a while (default is 90 days or older).

Install: npm install -g @dendronhq/safe-npm Usage: safe-npm install react@^18 lodash

How it works: - Queries npm registry for all versions matching your semver range - Filters out anything published in the last 90 days - Installs the newest "aged" version

Limitations: - Won't protect against packages malicious from day one - Doesn't control transitive dependencies (yet - looking into overrides) - Delays access to legitimate new features

This is meant as a 80/20 measure against recently compromised NPM packages and is not a silver bullet. Please give it a try and let me know if you have feedback.

Hey HN, solo dev here. After years of frustration with how LLMs handle complex documents, especially PDFs with tables, I decided to build a solution myself. My approach uses a Markdown conversion step to preserve the table structure, which seems to work surprisingly well for chunking. This little parser is the first public piece of a much larger, privacy-focused AI platform I'm building. I'm pretty much running on fumes financially, so any feedback, critique, or support is massively appreciated. Happy to answer any questions about the approach!

This is a little puzzle game I made based on Wolfram's rule 30[0]. I was doing some sketches based on old Genuary[1] prompts and for some reason this idea stuck with me, so I polished it up into a hopefully playable state.

I wanted to keep things minimal, but as a semi-easter egg you can play custom variants using url parameters like https://demos.samgentle.com/wolfrominoes/?rows=20&rule=110
