Show HN: K7d – Fork live Kubernetes clusters in GRPO-train AI on infrahttps://github.com/katakate/k7dHey HN, Gary here.Today I want to present k7d which is an Apache 2.0, tight Rust VMM + shim enabling something not possible before: fast forking of live running virtualized multi-node k8s clusters with surviving of in-flight connections.A 3-VM nodes K8s cluster gets forked in 105ms, and a 50x fork of a 3-VM cluster in 4.1s on a 64GB RAM box.I have two goals here:1) enable large scale GRPO/RL training of AI on Kubernetes infra, which IMO is a great playground for reasoning training, besides training a capability that's actually useful. And this requires not only fast episode reset (as you need tens of thousand of multi-turn runs during RL post-training) but also greatly benefits from fast forking so you can do parallel branch exploration, rollback, pruning during RL training. Faithful forks also give you byte-identical starts for the G of GRPO, which gives variance reduction across the group.2) enable

Show HN: CSS-in-JS Arena Bamboo, StyleX and Panda on Pixel-Identical Appshttps://github.com/gajus/css-in-js-arenaA little context, I've been working on Contra for the last 6 years. It's a marketplace-network – an application that's comparable to the likes of LinkedIn, UpWork, and similar in terms of its surface area. That's hundreds of routes, thousands of components, and tens of thousands of styles.Over the last year, we have been obsessed with performance. We have optimized every layer of our infrastructure to the point where profiling the application increasingly started to surface bottlenecks in client-side (bundle size, and metrics like TBT, LCP, and INP). That's where CSS-in-JS comes in.6 years ago, we started with styled-components. Then zero-runtime alternatives emerged and we started to experiment with them, eventually landing on Panda CSS. Panda took us a long way, but... they aren't _actually_ zero-runtime. Panda extracts CSS at build time, but it uses ~15KB runtime to map those style objects at runtime. This overhead surfaced repeatedly when profiling pages with lots of components (se

Show HN: Codewindow – Picture in picture for terminal agentshttps://codewindow.app/Hey HN - when I first started using Arc browser from the Browser Company, I loved the picture in picture feature they got for videos running in the background. When you switch desktops or windows, the video would just pop up and keep playing in a different desktop and you were able to move the widget around or size it.I found myself having a similar need for coding agents. This is because coding agents like Codex are running longer and longer. If I do not watch it continously, I miss the bad practices it implements or the bugs it introduces.However it is kind of boring to do that too. So I default to dealing with other tasks or just scrolling X.com sometimes.So I built a widget where it reads the terminal for coding agents (Codex, Claude Code and Pi) and when you leave the terminal, it shows you a widget for each agent running with its live actions. From different windows, you can check what it is doing.Demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9elzhDGGJRgWebsite: https://codewindow.a
