Show HN: Markdown HN profiles at {user}.at.hn

1. at.hn

   1 2 49 7.5 JavaScript

   

   Usual note that IANAL, but looks like this service is opt-in, and only relists data which is already public on a user's HN profile.

   If a user removes the reference from their bio, then the user's profile will be essentially inaccessible through the service (although technically the cached version would still be on the server. Adding a check to delete the file which matches the user's hashed ID here[0] would take care of profile deletions on subsequent accesses.

   Failing all that, a user could request deletion and OP could delete the user's file manually.

   There's nothing that seems overly onerous to implement to be (at least) GDPR compliant.

3. DOMPurify

   2 57 17,078 8.7 JavaScript

   DOMPurify - a DOM-only, super-fast, uber-tolerant XSS sanitizer for HTML, MathML and SVG. DOMPurify works with a secure default, but offers a lot of configurability and hooks. Demo:

   

   Since marked doesn't do it for you, make sure you sanitize the user input (the text on the user profiles) before rendering it to visitors.

   Some libraries for doing that with good defaults:

   - https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify

   - https://github.com/apostrophecms/sanitize-html

   - https://github.com/bevacqua/insane

   (right now your site looks vulnerable to XSS)

   A single repo for managing publicly recognized issues with the keybase client, installer, and website.

   

   Possibly, although according to this[0] the main profile URL used to be case-sensitive too. It must've changed recently, but I have no idea when.

7. hncomments

   6 1 2 3.6 Python

   

   How hard is it to export all of the comments someone has written on HN? I have been thinking about converting my HN comment history into something like a blog. Each entry would show the title of the submission, link if applicable, and the comment and link to comment thread.

   Maybe you could provide that service for a small fee.

   Probably not very: https://github.com/stickfigure/blog/wiki/Beware-cutesy-two-l...

   But probably sufficient for a project like this.
