Show HN: Chrome extension to enable toggling incognito and non-incognito windows
I've wanted to be able to have only one instance of my browser running, and one instance of an incognito browser running. For that, I wanted a keyboard shortcut that would toggle the lost Chrome window in the clutter of open windows I have.

In order to differentiate between the Incognito and the Regular Chrome window, I wrote this simple extension that adds a postfix to the title of Incognito tabs. This way, it's possible to recognize those windows from scripts (wmctrl, AutoHotkey).

It greatly improves my workflow, yet it's so simple, so I've decided to share it.

I've added in the README an example script I use on my Linux and Windows machines to toggle the browser windows using this extension :)
Could work. Or they could just decide to invest elsewhere.

I guess if the economy is in a recession and people spending less it is not the best place to invest. Unless it is for cheap labor but then you'll have problems with export tariffs.

The anti-imperialist angle is the same as pro-Ukraine, and opposing Russian imperialism.

It's easy to confuse anti-imperialism with pacifism, but you have to remember the anti-imperialist supported anti-colonial warfare even back in the 80s and 90s. Supporting a war to resist imperialism is completely congruent with anti-imperialism, and explains support for Ukraine.

It was about 1fps, but, apart from that, it was more or less real-time. It'd take about 5 hours to fly from Chicago to NYC. It's quite a miracle they managed to approximate real-time on the Apple II with only cycle counting.
Depends on the company. I've seen the opposite case were such a person was let go, much to everybody's relief. Some people had to clean up his mess, which was genius in the sense that it worked flawlessly, but nobody else could maintain it, so he had locked in a minimal bus factor. Which makes such a move harder to execute, but the earlier the better.

Show HN: I built a free SVG Web site
This has been an experiment to see if I could create everything using scripts and AI.
If AI couldn't do it I'd get it to create the code such as API calls and so on. This websvg.com site was completely created using these AI tools. Including the DNS being applied, the Cloudflare Pages were automatically set up and the the web site was a Svelte 5 application generated by v0.dev and Cursor. Every image was generated in Midjourney and converted to SVG.
I have now taken all of these scripts and can create a similar landing or directory site in less than a minute, provided I have the data.
Anyway it's been fun.

With absolutely no military experience, I find this thought process hard to believe. Namely that the existence of backdoors is hard to conceal forever, and that their discovery would do worse damage than what Trump is doing now. Given most administrations seemed interested in maintaining friendship with Europe, I don't see the strategic benefit.
> It does kinda show how markets don't just magically hit an equilibrium price.

There's lot of research on situations where market prices fail to work, but not much (as far as I'm aware) of when they largely work, but there are times when the market seizes up (and how to avoid such situations). or do the risk of such situations are so great that a product should not a be allowed to have a truly "free" market. e.g. petroleum.

I love that I at my workplace I can use a service template that wires everything together. And I don't understand why people want to do boring solved tasks over and over again.
I don’t have time to reply to all your points, so I’ll just pick a couple.

> False:
> To date, we have provided $66.5 billion in military assistance since Russia launched its premeditated, unprovoked, and brutal full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, and approximately $69.2 billion in military assistance since Russia’s initial invasion of Ukraine in 2014. We have now used the emergency Presidential Drawdown Authority on 55 occasions since August 2021 to provide Ukraine military assistance totaling approximately $31.7 billion from DoD stockpiles.

There’s a lot of editorialization here. But Russia was provoked. By NATO expansionism as well as the illegal coup in 2014 in Ukraine, which basically denied voting rights for the half of Ukraine that supported relations with Russia.

As for the numbers - your numbers are misleading because they’re only about part of the what’s been set aside overall, which is indeed around 200 billion.

> False. The US GDP is nearly $30 trillion. Our military spending is nearly $1 trillion. This is a drop in the bucket to support an ally and defend democracy from an aggressive dictator. Additionally, our aid allows us to dispose of old armaments that are otherwise costly to destroy, and our aid to Ukraine comes with long-term purchasing agreements for American weaponry.

It’s not a drop in the bucket. It is a huge amount to anyone. It can be used in many other ways. They aren’t just “old armaments” - a lot of this equipment is still in service, usable in war, and at least can be sold to generate income and help taxpayers or pay off debt. Also Ukraine is not an ally.
> The statement of the named Chinese official is either a psyop

Or more likley China wants to sell to people, and thats hard if they are in a trade war, and spending money on a crash re-militarisation drive.

It also serves China well to be on the side of the EU as they can mop up some of the trade thats being destroyed by the USA.

What would early alternatives to C have been?
In part true, for sure.

Personally when I left Google and interviewed elsewhere I made clear to potential employers two major things:

1. I never expected to be paid "Google level" money again. I was nowhere near high up in the pay tier there, but it was still almost twice what local shops were paying, at times (depending on how RSUs worked out, etc.)

Google can pay what it can because of the ads firehose, and it was actually, more than anything, a strategy used to deprive the competition of talent.

2. I never actually liked the Google internal culture, so although I was there for 10 years I was constantly aware of the things that I didn't like and the things I would not be trying to bring over to future gigs. And I had 10+ years work experience before Google. Which didn't serve me well while I was inside Google, but definitely has afterwards.

The StarFive JH7110 should be fine for that, but there's some lower-power hardware that's even better for your use case.

The Bouffalo Labs BL808 and Sophgo SG2000 series are both asymmetric multiprocessor SoCs that allow you to run a full OS, such as Linux, on one core, and run bare metal on the other. Unlike symmetric multiprocessing, you aren't just running a premptable thread on a spare core, but you get full control of the core, with direct GPIO access and a mailbox for messaging the OS core.

You can set up a development environment in Linux, on the faster core, and compile and run your application on the smaller core, for really fast development and debugging.

Hi HN,

I built Jiu Jitsu Near Me to help people find great local BJJ gyms in the US. I made that because I struggled to find good gyms when traveling.

It is based on Google reviews + data from the website with all the most important information brought up in one page.

It's still in progress, but I wanted to share it early for feedback. I am especially interested in hearing from fellow martial artists and what features would be most useful!

I guess he really thought that his initial userbase was now too small, and the larger more sustainable base is what he thought would be enough. He could still be right (no pun intended), but he would need all of the MAGA people to buy his cars, and China. It's not the worst bet, but more importantly, it very much exposes the lack of conviction in values.

The vast majority of people are good, and we're finally seeing that spirit moving (about time!).

>It's not shocking that an organization which has dedicated a vast amount of time, effort and money to hiding its misdeeds has... hidden some of its misdeeds.

If you go this way of thinking, you can just as easily come out on the opposite end. Maybe the Catholic Church is in fact hiding less than these other orgs, and that's why we associate them with abuse. If the known rate of abuse is mostly correlated to an org's skill at hiding, then who knows how much abuse happens anywhere.

Not helped by the fact a lot of interview processes - unless you can rely on word-of-mouth and the corporate structure allows for shortcuts - are byzantine, maddening and/or don't have much relations to the work one will be doing afterwards.

futures markets (among other things) allow producers to temporally match assets and liabilities.
Excellent point. Why would a move a certain crowd likes be out of principle and when the tide turned and a move in the opposite direction happens suddenly be just opportunism? The more realistic/neutral interpretation is that it's all just opportunism in either direction.

Zuck is probably the best example.

> Computational resources and bandwidth have become massively less expensive over those 20 years.

Your budget tier VPS provider on the other hand has only really doubled what you get over the last 10 years, and user feature expectations and AI scrapers really have caused resource usage to more than double.

The cost efficiency has really only benefited the middle end here really. HN is probably cheaper to run than it was 10 years ago. But the large sites are on cloud providers who have provided added services that you might not have used 10 years ago to keep up their margins, and the intro tier VPS that "Bob's Friendly phpBB Forum" might be on isn't getting you much more, which matters when Bob's revenue is $60/year from a handful of the most investigated regulars only.

My hope is that this will go beyond Europe. The free world - advanced economies without the US - are the largest economy in the world taken together. Thirty percent ahead of the US.

I'm far from being anti-American, I'm European but travel there all the time. I probably spend about 10-20% of my time there. There's so much I appreciate in that culture. And yet, today I feel more Japanese or Taiwanese than American.

I still hope they get their act together, but we're not as weak without them as their current leadership thinks.
No, because the fear of possibly not complying is enough to stop folks from even getting near it. I would argue that's worse for the ecosystem.

There’s close to zero chance the US would win a war with China in the event that it attacks Taiwan. Either china wins quickly, or it takes out all the assets which make it strategic in any case.
Is that a theoretical concern? Or do you actually know someone (personally, I mean) who has had such a change of heart?

One mark of a moral panic is the intensity of feelings people have about topics that are very distant from their actual experience. The kids say “touch grass,” but perhaps instead it should be “talk to someone actually involved.”
Honestly? Peer-review sucks and I'm not convinced it's all fine and good with it neither

Public review is better (but also worse in important ways)

A possible improvement would be for reviews to be semi-public but (author) anonymous, also where the reviewers would have some choice in selecting papers

As someone who uses a plastic mattress cover I can answer your question: yes, if you let dust build up, mites can and do start to live on the fitted sheet that you put around the mattress cover. However, it is of course easier to wash just the fitted sheet than to remove dust from within a mattress, so I think that a cover is still beneficial.

I'm not sure what you mean by trapping heat - once there are two normal cotton fitted sheets around it, I don't feel the plastic mattress cover at all.
Almost anyone who cares about their privacy should be able to Google how to improve it, find an article about VPNs, and sign up for Nord VPN (pretty user friendly and commercials everywhere). Dive just slightly deeper and you can find information on DNS and set the VPN to use the DNS you were recommended.

Most people don't care enough to even ask the questions. Creating competing services were the value differentiation is privacy (likely at the trade off of cost or quality) is bound to fail for that same reason.

I mean a negotiated peace. The alternative is a drawn out conflict that either wipes out Ukraine’s male population or significantly weakens the economies of Europe and America or both. Avoiding those things is taking the side of Ukrainians, Europeans, and Americans. Does it mean a dictator (Putin) gets some land? Sure. But I don’t think that’s the reason to seek peace.

You can view what I wrote whatever way you want, but I stand by it and don't think it was heartless at all. I think not having children is actually more heartful and caring than having children.

Look, out of all the people who come into this world, how many people can we say were a net positive for this planet? I see that you are currently at Airbnb. Great. You are lining your pockets, but I'm not sure what the net benefit to this planet is. If I have children, the chances are great that they were just resource consumers and waste producers. There are too many people on this planet, and chances are my having kids will make this problem worse. Of course, on a local scale, your children will add love to your life, you will help them out financially, they will live at home with their parents as adults, etc. This is not being selfless. You are helping your progeny which is, ultimately, selfish. What is truly selfless is to meaningfully help someone who has no connection to you. Fight for the poor, support countries that are being terrorized by aggressor countries, adopt a shelter animal, etc. That is truly selfless. Having kids--selfish. Look at Elon Musk and his 10+ kids.

> the decision to have kids is a personal choice.

And I choose not to burden the world with my own children. I've had numerous exchange students, adopted shelter animals, and I'm volunteering at a local shelter. I'm not under any illusion that my life here is going to be a net positive for the planet, but I am trying really hard. Having children, with the traditional notions about it that you regurgitated, is a vice when you consider that we are reaching our planet's capacity for supporting all of us. Ruining other planets such as Mars, I don't feel is a morally acceptable choice.
