Ask HN: How do you test payment webhook edge cases?

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 2:30pm

I work at a PSP. We recently had a production bug where a payment succeeded but our system didn't update — the webhook was delayed 45 seconds. Stripe's test mode doesn't simulate delays, timeouts, or webhook failures. We ended up writing internal mocks, but it's tedious. Considering building a simple tool: configurable delays, webhook failure simulation, request timeline. Curious how others handle this. Do you just write custom mocks? Accept the risk? Use something I don't know about?

Show HN: Hyperstar – LiveView/Datastar for TypeScript and JSX

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 2:29pm

Been loving building things in Hypermedia land. Started playing around with LiveView, but really loved the simplicity of Datastar with Go.

Wanted to build just a simple website where it was live and everyone saw the same thing. Had an idea to wrap some of the concepts of Datastar around a nice JSX syntax so you could build live pages in a single tsx file.

Would love to hear what you think! Been back and forth on the particular dev experience, greatly inspired by convex

Is your phone listening to you? (re-air) (Lock and Code S07E03)

Malware Bytes Security - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 1:49pm

This week on the Lock and Code podcast…

In January, Google settled a lawsuit that pricked up a few ears: It agreed to pay $68 million to a wide array of people who sued the company together, alleging that Google’s voice-activated smart assistant had secretly recorded their conversations, which were then sent to advertisers to target them with promotions.

Google denied any admission of wrongdoing in the settlement agreement, but the fact stands that one of the largest phone makers in the world decided to forego a trial against some potentially explosive surveillance allegations. It’s a decision that the public has already seen in the past, when Apple agreed to pay $95 million last year to settle similar legal claims against its smart assistant, Siri.

Back-to-back, the stories raise a question that just seems to never go away: Are our phones listening to us?

This week, on the Lock and Code podcast with host David Ruiz, we revisit an episode from last year in which we tried to find the answer. In speaking to Electronic Frontier Foundation Staff Technologist Lena Cohen about mobile tracking overall, it becomes clear that, even if our phones aren’t literally listening to our conversations, the devices are stuffed with so many novel forms of surveillance that we need not say something out loud to be predictably targeted with ads for it.

“Companies are collecting so much information about us and in such covert ways that it really feels like they’re listening to us.”

Tune in today to listen to the full conversation.

OrthoRay – A native, lightweight DICOM viewer written in Rust/wgpu by a surgeon

Hacker News - Mon, 02/09/2026 - 1:39pm

Hi HN,

I am an orthopedic surgeon and a self-taught developer. I built OrthoRay because I was frustrated with the lag in standard medical imaging software. Most existing solutions were either bloated Electron apps or expensive cloud subscriptions.

I wanted something instant, local-first, and privacy-focused. So, I spent my nights learning Rust, heavily utilizing AI coding assistants to navigate the steep learning curve and the borrow checker. This project is a testament to how domain experts can build performant native software with AI support.

I built this viewer using Tauri and wgpu for rendering.

Key Features:

Native Performance: Opens 500MB+ MRI series instantly (No Electron, no web wrappers).

GPU-Accelerated: Custom wgpu pipeline for 3D Volume Rendering and MPR.

BoneFidelity: A custom algorithm I developed specifically for high-fidelity bone visualization.

Privacy: Local-first, runs offline, no cloud uploads.

It is currently available on the Microsoft Store as a free hobby project.

Disclaimer: This is intended for academic/research use and is NOT FDA/CE certified for clinical diagnosis.

I am evaluating open-source licensing options to make this a community tool. I’d love your feedback on the rendering performance.
