Show HN: Shelf, a local-first open-source tab manager for Chromehttps://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/shelf-%C3%A2%C2%80%C2%94-privacy-first-tab/ooapfnbngihkbfldhleacagkgffjbdah

I built Shelf because I kept ending up with way too many tabs open. Bookmarks never really worked for me for this. Most of the time I don't want to bookmark something permanently. I just want to put a bunch of tabs away, get them out of my browser, and come back to them later. I also didn't want another service storing my browsing/session data, so Shelf doesn't have a backend or an account system. Everything is stored locally using Chrome's extension storage. There are no analytics, telemetry, external requests, host permissions, or content scripts. You can save a single tab, selected tabs, a…

During this time, I felt the need for different tools, like a timeline editor, a character sheet and so on, features that were not available on normal text editors. Later I discovered that I needed an Epub exporter, cover designer and more. I also wanted something AI-free, something private. It is important for me as a debut author to know that it is my writing, not an AI's and that it wont be used for AI training. So most cloud services were an instant "NO" from me.

I've been playing with this idea to build an estimation of chess cheating likelihood from an exported chess game (PGN format). The main thing I've developed so far is a way of estimating the complexity of each position. The intuition is that matching an engine's top moves in difficult positions is much more informative than doing so when there's an obvious best move. The detector currently combines complexity with engine agreement and centipawn loss to make a prediction. I'd like to move beyond the heuristics and train an ML model on a decent dataset of known cheating/non-cheating games. Ther…
