  • SingleFile

    Web Extension for saving a faithful copy of a complete web page in a single HTML file

    • Project mention: How SingleFile Transformed My Obsidian Workflow | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-26

    That's interesting. I have been saving articles as PDF files, which is browser-independent, but useful just for search and reference, a nuisance to quote/copy-and-paste.

    If I search only the computer, I don't get results from EBay and Amazon at the top. The idea of keeping the knowledge base separate from the primary notes is a good idea. In my case, that knowledge base is the file system, and the primary notes are whatever I choose.

    When I was using Evernote, the inbox was the knowledge base and notebooks were the focus. I just had too many different potential projects going on to manage this well.

    Looking to focus.

    I'll revisit Firefox and SingleFile.

  • karma

    Run ng test to execute the unit tests via Karma.

  • debug

    A tiny JavaScript debugging utility modelled after Node.js core's debugging technique. Works in Node.js and web browsers

    • Project mention: Conditional logging | dev.to | 2024-01-10

    Another way to solve this is to have the logs in place, but only enable them conditionally. If you enable all the logs are the time, you only get a lot of noise that won't help you. If you are using JavaScript, you can use the package debug to add logs that are active by the DEBUG environment variable.

  • pollyjs

    Record, Replay, and Stub HTTP Interactions.

    • Project mention: Polly.js – Record, replay, and stub HTTP interactions | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-08

  • artillery

    • Project mention: Ask HN: What are you using for load testing? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-23

    Usually, I would let organic users be my load test. However, I am working on a project that has an anticipated load on a new-to-my-team stack, so I'm looking into ways to load test.

    I've seen tools like k6 (https://k6.io/), Artillery (https://www.artillery.io), and JMeter (https://jmeter.apache.org/).

    I've been using Artillery, but it's hard to visualize the results.

  • transformers.js

    State-of-the-art Machine Learning for the web. Run 🤗 Transformers directly in your browser, with no need for a server!

    • Project mention: Transformers.js: Machine Learning for the Web | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-11

    We have some other WebGPU demos, including:

    - WebGPU embedding benchmark: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Xenova/webgpu-embedding-benchm...

    - Real-time object detection: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Xenova/webgpu-video-object-det...

    - Real-time background removal: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Xenova/webgpu-video-background...

    - WebGPU depth estimation: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Xenova/webgpu-depth-anything

    - Image background removal: https://huggingface.co/spaces/Xenova/remove-background-webgp...

    You can follow the progress for full WebGPU support in the v3 development branch (https://github.com/xenova/transformers.js/pull/545).

    To answer your question, while there are certain ops missing, the main limitation at the moment is for models with decoders... which are not very fast (yet) due to inefficient buffer reuse and many redundant copies between CPU and GPU. We're working closely with the ORT team to fix these issues though!

  • isomorphic-git

    • Project mention: Tree-shaking, the horticulturally misguided algorithm | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-13

  • zip.js

    JavaScript library to zip and unzip files supporting multi-core compression, compression streams, zip64, split files and encryption.

    • Project mention: Pigz: Parallel gzip for modern multi-processor, multi-core machines | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-12

    Similarly, if people are interested, I have coded the possibility to compress zip files on several cores in zip.js [1]. The approach is simpler as it consists of compressing the entries in parallel. It still offers a significant performance gain though when compressing multiple files in a zip file, which is often the nominal case.
