Show HN: GitType – A typing game that uses your own Git repo as practice text
Show HN (score: 5)Description
It’s a typing practice tool that takes your own Git repository and turns the code inside into typing material. Instead of random words, you type through real functions, comments, and code you’ve written — making practice feel closer to real-world programming.
Features: - Works directly in the terminal (no GUI required) - Pulls text from any local Git repo - Tracks WPM and accuracy - Keeps a history of your past runs (so you can see progress over time) - Fun ranking titles based on your score
Source and install instructions: https://github.com/unhappychoice/gittype
Would love feedback from fellow devs — especially around the scoring system and ideas for new modes. :)

Show HN: KeyEnv – CLI-first secrets manager for dev teams (Rust)
Show HN: KeyEnv – CLI-first secrets manager for dev teams (Rust) Hi HN,<p>I built KeyEnv because I was tired of the "can you Slack me the Stripe key?" workflow.<p><pre><code> The problem: My team's secrets lived in a mix of Slack DMs, shared Google Docs, and .env files that definitely weren't in .gitignore at some point. Enterprise tools like Vault required more DevOps time than we had. Doppler was close but felt heavier than we needed. What KeyEnv does: keyenv init # link project keyenv pull # sync secrets to local .env keyenv run -- npm start # inject secrets, run command That's basically it. Secrets are encrypted client-side (AES-256-GCM) before leaving your machine. Zero-knowledge architecture—we can't read your secrets even if we wanted to. Technical details: - Single Rust binary, no runtime dependencies - Works offline (cached secrets) - RBAC for teams (owner/admin/member/viewer) - Service tokens for CI/CD - Full audit trail Honest tradeoffs: - SaaS only, no self-hosted option - Fewer integrations than Doppler - If you need dynamic secrets or PKI, use Vault Pricing: Free tier (3 projects, 100 secrets), $12/user/month for teams. Would love feedback on the CLI UX and any rough edges. Happy to answer questions about the architecture. </code></pre> <a href="https://www.keyenv.dev" rel="nofollow">https://www.keyenv.dev</a>

Show HN: On the edge of Apple Silicon memory speeds
Show HN: On the edge of Apple Silicon memory speeds I have developed open source CLI-tool for Apple Silicon macOS. It measures memory speeds in different ways and also latency. It can achieve up to 96-97% efficiency on read speed on M4 base what is advertised as 120GB/s. All memory operations are in assembly.<p>I would really appreciate for results on different CPU's how benchmark works on those. I have been able to test this on M1 and M4.<p>command : 'memory_benchmark -non-cacheable -count 5 -output results.JSON' (close all applications before running)<p>This will generate JSON file where you find sections copy_gb_s, read_gb_s and write_gb_s statics.<p>Example M4 with 10 loops: "copy_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 106.65421233311835, "max": 106.70240696071005, "median": 106.65069297260811, "min": 106.6336774994254, "p90": 106.66606919223108, "p95": 106.68423807647056, "p99": 106.69877318386216, "stddev": 0.01930653530818627 }, "values": [ 106.70240696071005, 106.66203166240008, 106.64410802226159, 106.65831409449595, 106.64148106986977, 106.6482935780762, 106.63974821679058, 106.65896986001393, 106.6336774994254, 106.65309236714002 ] }, "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 115.83111228356601, "max": 116.11098114619033, "median": 115.84480882265643, "min": 115.56959026587722, "p90": 115.99667266786554, "p95": 116.05382690702793, "p99": 116.09955029835784, "stddev": 0.1768243167963439 }, "values": [ 115.79154681380165, 115.56959026587722, 115.60574235736468, 115.72112860271632, 115.72147129262802, 115.89807083151123, 115.95527337086908, 115.95334642887214, 115.98397172582945, 116.11098114619033 ] }, "write_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 65.55966046805113, "max": 65.59040040480241, "median": 65.55933583741347, "min": 65.50911885624045, "p90": 65.5840272860955, "p95": 65.58721384544896, "p99": 65.58976309293172, "stddev": 0.02388146120866979 },<p>Patterns benchmark also shows bit more of memory speeds. command: 'memory_benchmark -patterns -non-cacheable -count 5 -output patterns.JSON'<p>Example M4 from 100 loops: "sequential_forward": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 116.38363691482549, "max": 116.61212708384109, "median": 116.41264548721367, "min": 115.449510036971, "p90": 116.54143114134801, "p95": 116.57314206456576, "p99": 116.60095068065866, "stddev": 0.17026641589059727 } } } }<p>"strided_4096": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 26.460392735220456, "max": 27.7722419653915, "median": 26.457051473208285, "min": 25.519925729459107, "p90": 27.105171215736604, "p95": 27.190715938337473, "p99": 27.360449534513144, "stddev": 0.4730857335572576 } } } }<p>"random": { "bandwidth": { "read_gb_s": { "statistics": { "average": 26.71367836895143, "max": 26.966820487564327, "median": 26.69907406197067, "min": 26.49374804466308, "p90": 26.845236287807374, "p95": 26.882004355057887, "p99": 26.95742242818151, "stddev": 0.09600564296001704 } } } }<p>Thank you for reading :)
