Show HN: Ezy – open-source gRPC client, alternative to Postman and Insomnia
I've not used it, but have heard of Prestige (https://github.com/sharat87/prestige). It bills itself as "A text-based HTTP client in the browser. An interface-less Postman." I hope that helps!

Postman Now Supports gRPC
Shameless plug: There's also Prestige at https://prestigemad.com, which is very similar but works right in the browser. You can save your files as Gists as well. Templating with variables is also supported with `${}` syntax, like Javascript's template strings.
But gRPC support is not built yet. It's on the roadmap.

Awesome-loginless: internet services that don't require logins or registrations
There's also https://prestigemad.com, a text based API testing tool, like Postman. I'm the developer behind it and is open source at https://github.com/sharat87/prestige.
Login not required!

httpbin
Hey! I did the same thing, rewrite httpbin in Go, and put it up on https://httpbun.com. I did it because I needed a fast endpoint like httpbin, with a few extras, and with working redirect endpoints. I needed this for testing Prestige. (Sorry for inserting a shameless plug in here, but httpbun and httphub are just so close to each other I couldn't shut up 🙈).

Ask HN: Companies of one, what is your tech stack (2021)?
Still early days at https://prestigemad.com (recently discussed at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27412445)
- Backend is a Django project, database is PostgreSQL.
- Frontend powered by Mithril.js and the editor by CodeMirror.
- Hosted on a $5 box on EC2.
- GoatCounter for analytics.
- CloudFlare for DNS, NameCheap for domain.
Also https://httpbun.com
- Backend is a vanilla Go project.
- Frontend is plain HTML and CSS, I don't recall it having any JS at all.
- Hosted on the same $5 box on EC2.
- No analytics (yet).
- CloudFlare for DNS, NameCheap for domain.
It is refreshing to see how much I can squeeze out of a $5 box. I don't intend to stay with EC2 for long, but when its cheap, I'd rather spend my time improving Prestige.

Brave's AI assistant now integrates with PDFs and Google Drive
If ads, in particular on YouTube, are the problem, anything Chromium-based is probably only going to get worse and worse (see [1] and [2]). So that basically leaves you with Firefox and Safari.
I work for Mozilla (speaking for myself, of course), so I'll leave you to guess which I'd recommend :P

Mozilla thinks Apple, Google, Microsoft should play fair
What are the compelling advantages of Chrome nowadays?
Chrome is working to limit the capabilities of ad blockers:
https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2023/11/chrome-pushes...
Whereas a compelling advantage of Firefox is that uBlock Origin works best in Firefox:

Advertising networks have often been vectors for malware. Using an ad blocker is an important security measure. Even the FBI recommends ad blockers:

Brave Leo now uses Mixtral 8x7B as default
> It allows for 30,000 dynamic rules
That is not what we mean by dynamic filters. From https://developer.chrome.com/blog/improvements-to-content-fi...
> However, to support more frequent updates and user-defined rules, extensions can add rules dynamically too, without their developers having to upload a new version of the extension to the Chrome Web Store.
What Chrome is talking about is the ability to specify rules at runtime. What critics of Manifest V3 are talking about is not the ability to dynamically add rules (although that can be an issue), it is the ability to add dynamic rules -- ie rules that analyze and rewrite requests in the style of the blockingWebRequest permission.
It's a little deceptive to claim that the concerns here are outdated and to point to vague terminology that sounds like it's correcting the problem, but on actual inspection turns out to be entirely separate functionality from what the GP was talking about.
> Giving this ability to extensions can slow down the browser for the user. These ads can still be blocked through other means.
This is the debate; most of the adblocking community disagrees with this assertion. uBO maintains a list of some common features that are already not possible to support in Chrome ( https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b... ) and has written about features that are not able to be supported via Chrome's current V3 API ( https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-as... ). Of particular note are filtering for large media elements (I use this a lot on mobile Firefox, it's great for reducing page size), and top-level filtering of domains/fonts.

> "Its happened before"
> That's not an argument
It's a subheading to "2. Browser engine monopoly". The subsection's purpose is describing how bad things were during the IE monopoly to reinforce that it's something to be avoided.
> in fact you could counter-argue that IE left a lot of technical debt
That would be agreeing with the article, unless I understand what you mean.
> On top of that, the internet was very different back then.
In a way that now makes it harder for truly new competing engines to pop up due to increased complexity of the web.
> I'm still not convinced, why would I change my browser?
The points made in the article are:
* Increased privacy, opposed to willingly giving your data to an ad-tech company
* Helps avoid a browser engine monopoly which would effectively let Google dictate web standards
* It’s fast and has a nice user interface
Onto which I'd add:
* Content blockers work best on Firefox (https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b...), doubly so when Manifest V3 rolls out
* Allows more customization of interface and home page
* UX improvements, like the clutter-free reader mode, aren't vetoed to protect search revenue as with Chrome (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37675467)

What is the safest and best browser to use???
Firefox has the best adblocking capability with ublock origin, which explicitly operates better on Firefox. https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-best-on-Firefox

How Many Lines of C It Takes to Execute a and B in Python?
If you have no knowledge you can still make use of element picker in the context menu. In this case though the problematic element will have a generated class name like `frontend-components-SubscribePrompt-`, so I resorted to the CSS syntax (`##`). There are a lot, a freaking lot of them [1] but the CSS syntax alone can achieve a lot.
