Root Managed Services, LLC | Network Engineers | Dallas, TX | https://rootmanagedservices.com

Hey HN! I'm Ian, one of the founders of Root Managed Services.

Root Managed Services is a managed IT services provider focused on helping businesses keep their infrastructure stable, secure, and running day to day.

We're hiring a network engineer who is excited to help with day-to-day NOC operations, client infrastructure support, alert triage, troubleshooting, and keeping systems online. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys digging into network issues, server alerts, firewalls, tickets, documentation, and the operational details that keep businesses running.

Root Managed Services works with small and growing businesses that need reliable IT operations without building a full internal team. That means our work spans networking, servers, workstations, monitoring, ticketing, backups, security, and client communications. We’re looking for someone who can help us improve our NOC process, respond to issues quickly, and build better operational workflows as we grow.

Stack / tools: Windows Server, Linux, firewalls, switches, VPNs, RMM tools, ticketing systems, monitoring/alerting, Microsoft 365, Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, TCP/IP.

Applying: email me and let me know why you want to work with us.

Show HN: Simple Exif an App that allows creators take control of their metadata

0x10ca1h0st — Sat, 09 May 2026 20:30:29 +0000

I built Simple Exif to help creators and users take control of their metadata. It is a gui ontop of prebuilt libraries, that makes it simple and easy for the non-technical to utilize which is quite important because not all people are familiar with CLI tools.

"Together, memory and dreaming form a robust memory system for self-improving agents. Memory lets each agent capture what it learns as it works. Dreaming refines that memory between sessions, pulling shared learnings across agents and keeping it up-to-date."

This is really helpful for those large system's that need the long memory to ensure that you do not have to "reteach" the AI from a base memory or md file.

This I believe will go a long ways to improving token usage/caching and at the end of the day improving those large codebases.

The nostalgia. I did not much use XChat, but did use custom IRC clients like irssi that were capable of backdooring MSN chat rooms and had the ability to utilize many custom scripts.

This is great sentiment. Companies can be stopped, and then the medusa grows another head. Kill the business model, make the brokering of data illegal, and if caught, fines would be paid directly to those effected. This would go a long ways to promoting privacy first.

KDE is great but for someone who wants to truly develop their desktop manager, Hyprland has been really exciting to work with. I was using KDE Plasma for the longest time until discovering Hyprland.

Hi HN!!! I am localhost, lol, and I am launching RootManagedServices, a managed service provider focused on small and mid-sized organizations. After years of watching MSP relationships stall over opaque pricing, alert fatigue, and weak security baselines, we’re trying to do it differently: automation-first operations, measurable outcomes, and real transparency.

What’s different about our approach

Automation by default. We standardize device/identity baselines and recurring tasks with policy + scripts, aiming to cut busywork tickets and MTTR. Wherever sensible we use reproducible configs and self-healing checks rather than one-off fixes.

Security as table stakes. Enforced MFA, least privilege, rapid patch SLAs, phishing simulations with coaching, and a documented incident runbook from day one (not “phase 3”).

Observable operations. Clients get a simple monthly scorecard: patch compliance %, mean time to resolution, backup/restore test results, phishing failure rate, and “preventable ticket” trend lines.

Transparency over lock-in. Clear SLOs, shared runbooks/playbooks, and clean data export. If we’re not a fit later, you shouldn’t be stuck.

Simple pricing. Straightforward per-user/per-device plans with published inclusions. No surprise “consulting blocks” for routine care.

Where we are now

Working with early customers and refining our onboarding playbooks (identity, endpoint, backup, email security, and network).

Building on a vendor-agnostic stack; we favor open standards and, where it makes sense, open-source components for monitoring/telemetry and remote support.

Publishing select runbooks so clients (and other MSPs) can see how we work.

What I’d love feedback on from HN

If you run or buy from an MSP: what are your biggest pain points today?

Which metrics would you actually care to see each month?

Any strong opinions on stack choices to avoid or must-haves for a modern MSP?

Would open-sourcing more of our playbooks be genuinely useful, or just noise?

If this resonates (or if you think it’s misguided!), I’d appreciate your comments. I’m especially looking to talk with SMB founders/IT leads, other MSP operators, and security folks who’ve lived the day-to-day.

Thanks!!

I notice this on IG. Spend enough time on IG, and you have pretty much seen all the advertised memes, etc. Do this over years, and it just starts to loop on itself, the same memes, the same attempt at reactions, etc.

Working on the echi network.

A residential proxy network that leverages blockchain by turning everyday users home connections who have no contracts against such practices, into rentable exit nodes, each contributing bandwidth in exchange for rewards. A dedicated blockchain ledger tracks the exact amount of data each node relays and automatically releases micropayments in the network’s native cryptocurrency, ensuring transparent, real-time compensation without a middleman.

But with my adhd, I'll likely end up working on another project sooner than later. Interested in MCP aggregation.

Ahhh, what a lovely trip down memory lane. For me it was Mandrake. I ordered a copy of it from Linux Distros circa 2004 or so; once it arrived, immediately arranged for a sleep over with my buddy so we could hack together a machine to run it. Literally took _all night_ to get it running, and then when we did, realized the machine required a PS/2 keyboard and mouse, which ended up delaying our initial use by another day.
