Show HN: Kinetic – an experimental decentralized naming protocol

Hacker News - Thu, 07/09/2026 - 2:22am

Hi HN,

I started this while working on another project. I needed peer-to-peer connections and realized I still depended on domains, so I started wondering if there was another way to do naming.

This became Kinetic. It's an experimental naming protocol written in Rust. The idea is to use VDFs for name registration while libp2p and Kademlia handle discovery. Things are still changing a lot and I'm still testing different ideas.

One thing I'm currently struggling with is the economic side. If users don't pay for names, how does an open protocol sustainably fund long-term development? I'd be interested in hearing different perspectives on that.

I'd appreciate technical feedback on the protocol and any obvious flaws in the design.

Teller.io shuts down at the end of the week

Hacker News - Thu, 07/09/2026 - 2:12am

Got this email from them just now.

---

We’re sorry to share that we will be withdrawing our API product this week.

While very popular with individual developers, we have not been able to attract enough large customers to make the product viable. Unfortunately, that means we have to discontinue it.

We are making reasonable efforts to keep the service available through the end of the week, but availability may degrade before then and we cannot guarantee that all functionality will continue to work during this period.

We understand this is very short notice, and we’re sorry for the disruption.

We are currently working on a new version of the product designed to address the costs issue with the current system, and we hope to share more information about that shortly.

Customers on paid plans will not be billed for any future periods. If there is anything you need from us, please contact us as soon as possible.

Thank you for using the product.

Show HN: Copresent – Turn your phone into a Google Slides remote

Hacker News - Thu, 07/09/2026 - 2:08am

Hi HN, I'm the maker of Copresent.

It does two things:

1. Turns your phone into a Google Slides remote. Open a link, swipe to advance, and read your speaker notes off the phone while you walk around the room. No dongle.

2. Lets several people drive the same live deck. You share one link. Up to 10 co-presenters can take control from any browser, on any device - no install and no account for anyone but the host.

I built it because Google locked native co-presenting behind paid Workspace tiers (Business Standard and up). If you're on a free account like most students or small teams - there's no way to hand off slide control mid-talk without the "next slide please".

Only the host installs a Chrome extension. Everyone else just opens a link. Your slides never leave Google Slides - the deck isn't uploaded or stored anywhere.

Happy to go into the technical side in the comments. Feedback very welcome.
