The [Eesel][2] extension is another option, but you win big for me on size: 101KiB vs 1.29MiB.

rmateu | 6 years ago | on: WARP is here
As soon as it feels stable I'm telling my activist brother-in-law in Venezuela to install it and enable WARP. Personally I trust Cloudflare above any ISP. I see myself installing it over holidays to the rest of the family there.
I understand and celebrate HN's high level discussion about concentration of power on the internet and its effects. But at the same time I want to celebrate a geeky company, releasing something cool, with a free tier – and an evident openness about its plans and how it works. Congrats on the launch!
rmateu | 6 years ago | on: Costa Rica has run on 100% renewable energy for 300 days
> Only with renewable energies, this country has been operating for more than 6 months. The heavy rains in the region have allowed the country to completely renounce fossil fuels, and to feed almost entirely on the electricity generated from 4 hydroelectric plants – with a little extra help from geothermal, solar green energy and wind projects. With a little more investment, this trend can be maintained over time.

Last year Venezuelans requesting political asylum passed China and is now the number 1 country. 3 years ago we weren't even on the top 10.

rmateu | 8 years ago | on: Show HN: Keypad Layout Window Manager for Mac
I own Magnet, Moom, Cinch and a few others. I always end up abandoning because the powerful keyboard features get in the way when you're in an actual workflow, and the basic ones make me reach for the mouse.

>Streamlining the operating system.
>Since it contains only the kernel, device drivers, and configuration files — and absolutely no user data — the iOS 10 kernel cache can be left unencrypted without any concerns over security or privacy.

As geeks, don't we recognize that The Deck ads are better than Google AdWords? Isn't the MacBook Air currently better than probably any other laptop? Wasn't Gmail the best thing since sliced bread for a long time?
I get it that it's part of the script in a socialist revolution, but in a start-up news site?
Curtis, can be as arrogant as he wants and still have a great product (or be right). Just like John Gruber is a jackass, but one who is usually right and (for the context of this site) has a successful business many us would love to have.
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind helping out anybody here (or being helped), but at the end of the day, I want kick all your asses and win. And if I can hire the best of you, even better.

While posterous demise makes tumblr the winner of the space, I do think its social features/direction really gets in the way for those that just want a simple and fast blog.

I'd happily pay $20 for that (and we all know HN comment anecdote is evidence).

Anecdotally, it provides higher accuracy in a more relaxed style of narration than Just Press Record or native dictation.
Either way, thanks for sharing. Hoping the side app is working out.
