Show HN: Multilingual Salary Calculator for Germany Many people from a migrant background have difficulty understanding the German income tax system. Therefore, as a side project, I have created a multilingual gross-net-salary calculator for Germany. With this side project, my main goals are: 1. to create an intuitive method for non-German speakers to easily understand how and what is deducted from their gross salary in Germany, 2. to translate the calculator into Eastern and Central European languages (as they represent one of the largest groups of migrant workers in Germany) to make it easier for them to understand the German income tax system, 3. make it mobile-friendly so that anyone with only a mobile phone can easily use it. I am currently working on translations into Russian and Farsi (based on the requests from several organisations who are working with refugees in Germany), with other languages to follow. The website is already available in the following languages: Arabic, English, German, Hungarian, Romanian, Ukrainian. What do you think about design? Is it intuitive or does it need some improvement? All feedback is welcome. https://ift.tt/mRw5Dve November 7, 2022 at 05:36PM
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
