Thanks for this! I've been using it for less than a minute, and it has already exceeded my expectations:
Installed, opened the raw view in the GitHub link to the dark mode style linked to above to copy it into the clipboard, and was pleasently surprised that it opened in the extension with syntax highlighting and a button to install.
Clicked "Install", back back to HN, reload, dark mode.
Cheers! I feel like the vast majority of extensions could be rewritten as either TamperMonkey or Stylus scripts.
I’m always leery of installing new extensions (nothing against Orange Juice) because of all the high-profile cases where they get bought out by unscrupulous companies and basically turn into malware payload delivery systems.
It’s nice to be able to reduce the attack surface down to just these two extensions, which have been around for a long time.
I agree, though I use Violentmonkey instead of Tampermonkey because open source, and uBlock Origin because rewriting it as a *monkey script is somewhere between "Implement a MIDI Machine Control interface to my turntable" and "Rewrite FreeBSD in Rust" on my project list.
Haha yeah - same I only run three extensions (uBlock Origin, Stylus, and Tampermonkey) but I'll be swapping over to violentmonkey [1]. Thanks for the recommendation - didn't realize there was a FOSS equivalent.
> Because nobody use Swift outside of iOS app development
Because that isn't true, people do use it outside of iOS app dev, and is becoming more true as time goes on to boot.
It's also a chicken-and-egg problem: no one will use Swift for non-iOS tasks if the tooling support isn't there. The more investment into it, the more it will be picked up for other tasks.
But it's been used outside of Apple-specific things since the early days in various niches.
They actually need it because the demand is higher than expected from consumers. And because they need a moat since every big corporation trying to capture that market too, they need the moat for the biggest compute and energy they can get.
Also businesses is were the money at, not regular consumers (especially tech-savvy folk who run models locally).
Someone, somewhere, salivating at the idea of combining both ideas. A paid for digital ID service that you can use as authentication for the web.
Actually, if I'm thinking about it. Social Media platforms already started this with the paid blue badge for verification, and it's also monthly subscription. But it's for their respective platform only, not universal.
Isn’t this what World Coin is? Definitively not a fan of the project but I think the general goal is to get people to verify they are human and then somehow “waves hands blockchain” that can be carried with them on the internet.
Would that work though? Unless it checks your pulse every 30 minutes I don't see how that would make it better. Bots would use stolen IDs for that. It would only contain it at a smaller scale probably
There's definitely a price where it doesn't scale and that price is almost certainly lower than what people would be willing to pay once for themselves.
It would have to integrate with some kind of official government ID, so that there can be extremely serious criminal penalties for ID theft. But that's something for the next republic, because the current one's justice system is unlikely to be up to the task.
Totally agree with you. I come here to read comments made by humans. If I need to read comments made by AI Bots I would go to Twitter or reddit, both made me not read the comments section entirely.

Funny, I was debating posting a note thanking the HN staff myself for adding this to the comment guidelines but I don't think it's possible to write one without sounding at least a little bit like a bot...
Strange subthread. I don't see Claude Opus 4.6 changing the tide for PyPy. There is no need to understate AI capabilities for this.
"Anthropic released vibe coded C compiler that doesn't work" sounds like https://github.com/anthropics/claudes-c-compiler/issues/1 passed through a game of telephone. The compiler has some wrong defaults that prevent it from straightforwardly building a "Hello, world!" like GCC and Clang. The compiler works:
> The 100,000-line compiler can build a bootable Linux 6.9 on x86, ARM, and RISC-V. It can also compile QEMU, FFmpeg, SQlite, postgres, redis, and has a 99% pass rate on most compiler test suites including the GCC torture test suite. It also passes the developer's ultimate litmus test: it can compile and run Doom.
This two week project did not displace GCC, one of the most complex pieces of machinery built by man, so the conclusion on hacker news is that AI is fake.
What you’re seeing is a shibboleth. If you can make the above claim without choking, then you’re a member of the tribe. If it seems so outlandish that honor and sense demand you point out the problems, you’re marked as an enemy.
The primary objective is to retarget PyPy on top of the Python main branch. A minor objective is to document what of PyPy can be ported to CPython (or RustPython).
Keep a markdown log of issues in order to cluster and close when fixed
Clone PyPy and CPython.
Review the PyPy codebase and docs.
Prepare a devcontainer.json for PyPy to more safely contain coding LLMs and simplify development
Review the backlog of PyPy issues.
Review the CPython whatsnew docs for each version of python (since and including 3.11).
What has changed in CPython since 3.11 which affects PyPy?
Study the differences between PyPy code and CPython code to understand how to optimize like PyPy.
Prepare an AGENTS.md for PyPy.
Prepare an agent skill for upgrading PyPy with these and other methods.
Write tests to verify that everything in PyPy works after updating it to be compatible with the Python main branch (or the latest stable release, CPython 3.14)
> Anthropic released vibe coded C compiler that doesn't work, how their LLM can help in maintaining PyPy?
This is the perfect question to highlight the major players. In my opinion, a rapidly developing language with a clear reference implementation, readily accessible specifications, and a vast number of easily runnable tests would make an ideal benchmark.
What sorts of limitations you have with Obsidian? for diagrams I use Mermaid and it's work flawlessly within Obsidian.
For anything fancy, advanced and customized, I use Obsidian Canvas, it's a new feature they released recently. So far, I don't need anything outside Obsidian to do any kind of note taking/writing.
