Show HN: Ngnr.club – A link-in-bio service for engineers
- coolspot 3y agoSup, ngnr? The name doesn’t roll of a tongue, IMO.
- vvilliamperez 3y agoTook me a bit to understand at first, but now I read it as `engineer`
- mike_hock 3y agoIt does if you pronounce it "sup, ngna."
- sergiotapia 3y agofwiw unfortunate name...
- zabana 3y agoI know. I realised it after the fact but then it kind of grew on me so I decided to keep it. Thanks for the feedback ! Much appreciated.
- pcan77 3y agothe name... cmon.
- zabana 3y agoI know, I know ... ^^'
- 1000thVisitor 3y agoWhat kind of engineers? Anime engineers?
- zabana 3y agoWe're very inclusive haha Truth is, I had to get creative otherwise the site would've looked bland.
- FredPret 3y agoThe name immediately looked like "engineer club" to me. But it refused to take my password, and not in a fun way like that password game the other day
- zabana 3y agoIt may be failing the validation on AWS cognito's side. Added to the todo list. Thanks for the feedback !
- jeffstephens 3y agoI really like the simple UI and focus on projects/blogs. Cool site! I think I found a bug, though - it seems like when I save on the "social media" page, it blows away data from the others. I was able to do this twice and it cleared out my name, location, and bio. Hope that helps!
- zabana 3y agoThanks for the feedback ! I'll look into that and come up with a fix ASAP. Glad you like it !
- apsurd 3y agoeng.surf is available (coming up with domain names is the best part of coding!)
- zabana 3y agoHow did I not think of this haha
- user- 3y agoHeh, seems like you hit your limits. I was trying to secure my own name and kept getting generic error occured. then i opened up the dev tools and saw index-01401dc0.js:124 Exceeded daily email limit for the operation or the account. If a higher limit is required, please configure your user pool to use your own Amazon SES configuration for sending email.
- zabana 3y agoHey everyone, thanks for checking out the site and for signing up. It seems that AWS cognito verification emails are subject to a daily limit of 50. Your accounts are indeed created, but the confirmation emails containing the code are not being sent. I'm working on fixing this issue as I'm writing this. Thanks for your understanding.
- zabana 3y agoThe issue is fixed now (hopefully). If you are able to sign up without issues, could you please confirm in this thread ? Thanks
- slaaen 3y agoWas able to sign up without issues.
- jzig 3y agoCodeDeliveryFailureException Cognito received the following error from Amazon SES when attempting to send email: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1: name@domain.com" I don't have an email though. Attempting to register again yields UsernameExistsException.
- zabana 3y agoNice catch ! I've updated the email to my personal email and ran a quick test, so it should work fine now. Thanks for the help !
- jzig 3y agoI can't re-register the same username because it already exists. And I can't log into that username because I didn't receive the confirmation email. Alternatively, I tried to do a password reset but have not received an email for that either.

- lugia_ 3y agoSeems like registration is kill for now. Hoping to register when it's back online :) EDIT - cannot use a proton.me email apparently? Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1:
- zabana 3y agoYeah I've updated the Cognito User Pool configuration to use SES for emails instead of the default cognito sender. If you try again now, you should be able to sign up no problem ! Cheers :)
- jzig 3y agoHey zabana, it looks like one of your endpoints is leaking password hashes that might be undesired? POST https://cognito-idp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ https://cognito-idp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ Response: ``` { "ChallengeName": "PASSWORD_VERIFIER", "ChallengeParameters": { "SALT": "*", "SECRET_BLOCK": "*", "USER_ID_FOR_SRP": "*", "USERNAME": "*", "SRP_B": "**" } } ```
- zabana 3y agoOh ! Will investigate and fix ASAP. Thanks for the help !
- throwoutway 3y agoSRP (Secure Remote Password) does not store password in hashes, but rather uses a zero knowledge proof https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Remote_Password_protocol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Remote_Password_protoco... Without making the same post call, I thinnk you are seeing the challenge codes for the proofing
- grepLeigh 3y agoCongrats on the launch! I've seen this UI style become more popular, and I'm wondering if there's a name for it? E.g. "material design" is immediately recognizable, and I'm curious if this style comes from a similar UI framework.
- zabana 3y agoHey thanks for the kind message ! For this project I did everything from scratch but I used inspiration from a few things I saw on codepen and dribbble. I'm not a designer that's why there's gifs everywhere haha
- jestums 3y agoWould like to try it but yeah hitting your limit still.
- zabana 3y agoYour account is now confirmed ! (@jest)
- dylanz 3y ago$ User already exists ... $ Cognito received the following error from Amazon SES when attempting to send email: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1: <my gmail address>
- zabana 3y agoI've just confirmed your account (@dylan) Thanks for your patience !
- tarboreus 3y agoCool but couldn't sign up. @patrick, used a masked fastmail address.
- ymc9 3y agoCool name and nice looking site! Looking forward for the signup to recover.
