Show HN: WordDumb, a calibre plugin that helps you read books This plugin creates Word Wise and X-Ray sqlite files for Kindle format books, it also adds these data as tags and footnotes to EPUB books.

X-Ray descriptions come from Wikipedia, locator map, Democracy Index and country/city inception data are queried from Wikidata.

Show HN: Launch VM workloads securely and instantaneously, without VMs Hello HN! We've been working on a new hypervisor https://kwarantine.xyz that can run strongly isolated containers. This is still a WIP, but we wanted to give the community an idea about our approach, its benefits, and various use cases it unlocks. Today, VMs are used to host containers, and make up for the lack of strong security as well as kernel isolation in containers. This work adds this missing security piece in containers. We plan on launching a free private beta soon. Meanwhile, we'd deeply appreciate any feedback, and happy to answer any questions here or on our slack channel. Thanks! April 29, 2021 at 07:50AM
