Show HN: Sort Any Awesome List by GitHub Stars As a CS undergrad, I self-taught many topics not covered by the school. Typically awesome list is where I started with. I spent my second half in college researching computer vision and machine learning. CVPR accepts over 2000 papers every year, not to mention arXiv. The awesome lists curated by the community usually serve as checklists when I was doing literature surveys. But since the number of the list items was overwhelming, I had to prioritize which papers to read first. Many of them had been uploaded to arXiv in the last few months, so I had no clue how many citations they would get. When learning web development, I also had difficulty finding the best package for the tasks like data validation and client-side routing. To make a decision, I had to browse through GitHub repositories or read the documentation. I wish I could have my awesome lists sorted, desirably by popularity. This led to the creation of my project: a web app that rearranges any awesome list with hints from GitHub stars. It may not work well when the list items do not contain links to GitHub repositories or pages, but it truly shines when most of them do. I hope this could help anyone else. P.S. I'm aware of a similar project ( https://ift.tt/cZAX6VI ), a CLI application with more features. For example, it checks if any GitHub repository link exists on the linked website. https://ift.tt/P8bICDR March 3, 2023 at 12:51AM
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
