Show HN: Vibe Styler – Transform Any Website's Style With a Prompt + Gemini 2.5
I vibe coded a Chrome extension that lets you redesign any website using a simple prompt, powered by Gemini 2.5 Pro's million-token context window. It analyzes the full DOM and existing CSS, then generates contextually-aware styles based on your requests – from specific tweaks ("make the header sticky") to complete themes ("apply cyberpunk aesthetics").

The extension maintains style persistence across visits, handles CSP gracefully, and lets you manage styles per website. All processing happens through the Gemini API (you'll need your own key), with no intermediate servers. The API is currently free to use.

Note: Since the extension sends the entire context of the website to Gemini, be careful not to send any sensitive data.

Try asking it to style as "Star Wars" or "Simpsons", or "add subtle animations to all buttons" – it's pretty fun to experiment with!

If your anxiety is so severe that you are having advanced chronic physical health problems then you need to be on medication. That can add years to your life. Otherwise, DO NOT take anxiety medication. The side effects can be horrific for your health and you will become dependent on it for daily functioning. See a doctor to be sure.

Changes to diet can help. Try a low carb diet and drop alcohol, tobacco, and caffeine. A low carb diet will focus on mostly meat, dairy, and vegetables. Cardio and weight training will also help. Focus on exercises that increase bone density. Not only does this kind of diet improve your mental health it improves nearly all chronic health problems. In my case it has almost reversed and eliminated arthritis.

Just remember a job is a job. They are disposable. You aren’t a celebrity or senior executive so don’t let it interfere with your health. I would rather be poor than let a job drive me crazy and I saying that as a military guy with 5 Middle East deployments.

Regarding iteration, as the article says natural language is just slow and lossy. If you are ok iterating more slowly and constantly explain and correct things then why not? I find it tedious
Everyone seems confused, including here, when regulations don’t happen until a bunch of people die. So I was taking that as evidence that a bunch of people weren’t making the connection.

I find it amusing how a lot of people immmediately recognize 1000s of old laptop battery cells in a wooden shed a fire risk.

But they were as much of a fire risk (if not more) before being recycled, they were just spread out along the e-waste bins!

Every time I hear of a waste processing plant fire, I wonder if there was a (lithium) battery involved. Maybe from a single use vape, or a child's toy.
Thanks for the clarification!

Yeah, there is such a problem with the naming "text" suggests something different than just a "string".

I guess handling these nuances falls under the broader categories of internationalization (i18n) and localization (l10n).
Isn't it also because the jar is closed that the superglue keeps for longer? A fridge also dehydrates the air (condenses on the back wall in most cases).
Also used with food stuff. So just producing one SKU with "DO NOT EAT" saves money and doesn't really hurt in other use.
electric cars do not have emissions, true, but generating the electricity to power them does generate emmissions.

Also, electric cars are heavier. This means not only higher tire pollution, but also they are inherently less fuel efficient.

Man this looks super awesome. I will be extremely excited to ditch CouchDB for this (even tho I'm an Erlang fan). I'll certainly be keeping an eye on the project and I'll pitch in where I can!
Forgetting the tone for a moment but I can say I see lots of people using things they don't understand and making hard problems for themselves. To be fair I know that I don't understand those things properly and yet see people rushing in to use them who know even less.

With threads it was a messaging service that was supposed to offer a persistent queue that could survive restarts. It possibly doubled or trebled the length of the project through multithreading bugs. I wasn't the creator of the code - it was someone without a degree. In the end I had to solve one bug on it that took 3 months to work out and that was just a double-free in some odd circumstance. Nobody wanted to touch it and muggins (i.e. me) was the last person without an excuse!

Asynchronous python and python threading are the recent ones I've experienced - javacript programmers who decided that python was trivial to learn and tried to speed everything up with threads (makes everything worse until 3.13 with a special compilation option that we could not use) and then they made life even worse to no purpose at all by using async without knowing that the ASGI system underneath didn't support it properly. Uvicorn does but uvicorn wasn't usable in that context.

Apart from creating wonderful opportunities for bugs they didn't even know how to write async unit tests so the tests always passed no matter what you did to them.

When trying to help with these issues I found the attitude to be extremely resistant. No way they were going to listen to me - the annoying whippersnapper in one case or the old fart programmer in the other. They just knew better

The more insidious will be if the government starts putting roadblocks in the way of solar expansion, like the UK government basically banning onshore wind turbine development (which is much cheaper than offshore wind). Absent government interference, solar already has good enough economics it's going to dominate without public funding (which may still waste a lot of time and effort on nuclear plants).

(I also see a big trend of objections to grid-scale solar deployments, which is nuts to me: why on earth do you care about living next to a solar farm? It's about the most inoffensive local development that could possibly happen)

One small beacon of hope, perhaps, is that I see perspectives like this becoming more common over time. A few years ago there were (anecdotally) way more true believers in the current MO of pervasive profit seeking to the detriment of all else, true believers in the "free market" etc.

It's easy to see how absurd the practice of advertising is if you think about the actual dynamic.

As human beings we all have intentionality. When we want something, we seek it. "Hey, I really need to cut the lawn, let me find a lawnmower"—I'll go out and research lawnmowers to find one that helps me accomplish my intended goal.

Advertising totally inverts this dynamic. Instead, apropos of nothing, some person I don't know and have no relationship with interrupts some other thing I am in the middle of intentionally doing to tell me all about their fancy lawnmowers. At its worst (and most effective) it short circuits my own potential formation of intentions and reshapes my intentions, manipulating me, and at its least effective it's just a completely annoying distraction from what I was originally trying to do. It's horrible and antithetical to any notion of respect and dignity you might ascribe to the limited time of other human beings.
Another take is to nurture a "tamagotchi" or "pet" phone (iPhone) at home, with some innocuous memes, following sports accounts and such. Bring that when crossing any border. Leave the "real" or "business" phone at home at all times. Of course, it's not a realistic solution for many people.

Bringing anything non-standard can be misinterpreted as, or worse, construed as something malicious.

The problem with an empty "burner phone" is, that can also look suspicious. Even if you have a receipt with you, they may wonder why you bought a new phone just for the trip. Lockdown mode seems even more suspicious.

Just don't stick out is unfortunately probably the best answer.
I wish they would tune up the Thunderbird UI to be more usable. It won’t matter if they make a cloud version that’s just as clumsy as their desktop app.

That's the sane way to tackle it. If you're the vendor, just target the top N (whatever value of N you can cope with).

I don't mean disrespect towards people running Alpine (hi), Arch, or Gentoo, but you wouldn't be running these distros if you aren't ready to handle their quirks.

TFA mostly talks about binary compat. Even if you can get away with statically linking everything, you still have to cope with the mess that is userspace fragmentation: <https://tailscale.com/blog/sisyphean-dns-client-linux>

So yeah, supporting the top N gets you approximately sqrt(N/(N+1))% of the way. (Assuming desktop Linux market share is about 1%.)
I super randomly mentioned this movie last night (as being unwatchably cringe, even as a fan of the genre), so it was pretty eerie to see this news today.

I think, I am completely guessing here, the MAGA goal is internal self-sufficiency. The unfortunate consequence is that the US economy is primarily a retail economy and tariffs will drive higher prices that reduces spending and quantity of transactions. The expected result then is shrinking growth and possibly a shrinking GDP.

> All that is needed is the factory owner quietly telling the town councillors that if they are forced to clean up their emissions, they will not be able to compete with foreign competitors who don't have to do the same, and will be forced to close.

Thing is, they're usually _lying_ when they say that. A while back I was looking at buying a house that was near a local authority recycling centre, so went on the EPA's website to see if there were any complaints about it, and went down a rabbit hole of reading regulatory action documentation (everybody needs a hobby). A very common pattern was, basically, company says "if we fix this, we'll have to close", regulator says "don't care, it's the law, fix it", company fixes it, and unaccountably fails to close like they promised, life goes on.

There are exceptions, of course, but a lot of "following the rules will make us unviable, so let us ignore the rules pls" rhetoric from companies is just rhetoric intended to marginally reduce costs. See RoHS; manufacturers acted like it would cause the collapse of modern civilisation, EU pressed ahead anyway, and 20 years later somehow modern civilisation is still there, albeit with somewhat less lead and mercury.

Whoah is this wrong. Maybe when you hear "formal specs" you have something specific in your mind...

Formal spec can mean almost literally anything better than natural language vibes in a "few words about a desire", which is what I replied to because I was triggered by it
I kinda wish I could look at the code, but it's not open source and the frontend sources are minified/obfuscated, but it's long and looks like it's using React and a css-in-react approach, which also generates a ton of code.

Hi HN,

I recently built teleprompt [https://www.get-teleprompt.com], a Chrome extension that helps you write better AI prompts in your browser. It’s grown to 8,000 users in a few weeks, and I just launched a feature called Craft – a lightweight prompt builder.

Instead of tweaking templates, Craft lets you create a high-quality prompt from scratch. You choose a use case (e.g. code, marketing), add some context, and it generates a structured, ready-to-use prompt for tools like ChatGPT or Claude.

It runs inside any input field, so you can craft prompts as you’re working — no need to open a separate app or tab.

Extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/teleprompt/alfpjlcn...

Happy to answer any questions about the build, design decisions, or how I grew it. Feedback welcome!
Anecdotal, but I never had an Arch install fail after updating (maybe the one time my EFI partition was full, but not specific to Arch). While I have a laptop running OpenSUSE Tumbleweed that failed to start after the third update I did on it.

The (sad) answer would seem to be: if you don't understand it, don't attempt it.

If you're cringing it's because it is accurate (and you and I were like that — or nearly so).

If anything I wish it had not been a comedy but rather a more serious film with the same cast. They only touched on but could have done more with the psychology of these young, awkward, hormone-fueled "geniuses" falling in among some of the most awkward and smartest other young people in the world. Those who have always been the smartest in school now finding themselves ranking maybe somewhere in the middle among their new cohorts. And of course all the heightened awkwardness of being away from your parents for the first time in co-ed living arrangements....
Try repeating the paragraph before the last to your "friend". Even transmedicalists tend to not be fond of this line of thinking.

I am glad. I have yet to see any form of actually nuanced discussion about this that involves a cis person so far.

Anyway, none of this is "center".
Have we not met before?
I still think that the argument is flawed beyond trivially parallel problems, but my understanding is that the author is arguing for shared-nothing, not for single threaded/single-process solutions.
sure, and just 4 days prior to that totally neutral verdict another french court ruled that political bans were legal. what a coincidence, what a convenience. something that was never even considered legal in France just “clearly and unambiguously” fell into that judge’s hands days ahead.

No, there’s nothing noteworthy here, especially for a crime Le Pen didn’t committed herself and which every single party of France is guilty of.

Don’t choke on that kool aid!
The 'haha! ha!' from Genesis's 'Mama' is quite literally taken out of 'The Message' by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five (the first rap hit song): I just think it's neat Genesis were listening to that. They don't seem like they'd be listening to rap and yet it's well documented in their own words that they'd not only heard it, but were that into it that they kept sticking that riff in 'Mama' and it stuck.
>extremely cheap when amortized

Doesn't seem like that in practice. Nuclear's generally one of the most expensive per-kwh sources of energy on the grid. And nuclear-renewable diversity doesn't favor nuclear either: renewables absolutely destroy any margins nuclear might have, and both want to share the grid with storage or dispatchable fossil fuel generation like gas turbines.
"Pure" JS exists as a concept, not a project.

Having a tiny standard library is also a good thing, not a bad one... I'm not saying its an ideal API but in general, smaller==better (within reason).
Did you even read the article? You might have missed the main point entirely. It’s not discussing the job security of management consultants, but rather the job satisfaction.

Particularly for junior professionals, the expectations placed on them have suddenly increased tenfold, while the expectation to utilize generative AI for the most intellectually and creatively demanding tasks has diminished the mental reward. As a result, the most unsatisfying manual tasks are only ones left to be done - needing most of their attention.
If anyone has done a better "nerdy girl" I haven't seen that film.

So many fond memories of DSJ. Thank you Jussi. No other game kept me and my friends playing as much as DSJ.

Fun facts: Since Slovenia is being mentioned, recently Domen Prevc set the world record at 254,5m on the largest ski jump in the world in Planica, Slovenia.
His sister Nika Prevc won the World Cup this season with a record difference in front of second place. They're both related to Peter Prevc, yet another ski jumper. The whole Prevc family is amazing.
To crown everything Anze Lanisek got 5x20 (highest grade) for his jump also in Planica, Slovenia this season.
I don't know everything about his past, but the man was involved in the industry from a young age and extremely active in the early years. Compared to most, if he had some big skeletons in his closet they didn't come out yet or they did and were really dumb and minor.

That doesn't happen much now. Usually we know they are a nazi supporter or something by the time they are 19.
I thought he was awesome in The Saint and that it was an awesome movie, complete with a fantastic soundtrack from that era:

It’s not just about the size of the payload, it’s about the stuff happening in the background and the constant diffing of the various DOMs that react has. I can tell I’m on a react site by how laggy it is. Some devs manage to do better but I can still tell.

Another wonderful feature of react is it will fully render the page on my iPad and then quickly replace it with an error message. Absolute brilliance.

The article is from 2015, but Kilmer died yesterday (April 1, 2025).
I don't think vegetarian is enough, since it often means diary, which goes back to cows as one of highest polluters.

Could be that one needs way fewer cows to produce diary equivalent to beef, that would invalidate above sentence. Anybody knows this?

I've lived for maybe 6 months in cca vegan diet when backpacking in India and Nepal (apart from infrequent paneer cheese, their meat in cheap dhabas was not great to be polite - either chicken bits chock full of bones or very chewy mutton), but I wouldn't consider it the best idea for everybody alive. Also those indian spices helped mentally to feel like eating great, but I know very few (specifically) men in Europe who would find it acceptable replacement (women seems more reasonable in this).
Various state governments are already blocking solar projects.

I'm continually shilling Saul Griffith's work on here, I can't remember the particular piece but he calculated that by delaying the solar/wind transition, fossil fuel businesses would profit on the order of 100 trillion dollars.

My conspiracy theory is that Chinese development and proliferation of fossil fuel disrupting technologies is the root source of all of the current global instability. Only a matter of time until the petrodollar becomes obsolete.
