Show HN: Learn Japanese contextually while browsing

Hi HN,

Just wanted to share a tool i've been working on to help with my own study routine. It’s a browser extension called Lingoku.

The idea is simple: we spend hours browsing the web in English every day. This tool replaces some of the english words with Japanese vocabulary based on your japanese level (Similar to Toucan, but with a better user experience).

It’s basically an attempt to make the "i+1" method actually passive, you understand the sentence because it's mostly english, but you pick up Japanese words naturally from the context. It uses an LLM in the backend to make sure the translations fit the context (so it distinguishes between different meanings of the same word).

since it uses paid AI APIs for the words replacement, I couldn't make it 100% free (server costs are real, unfortunately). However, there is a "forever free" plan with daily credits that doesn't require a credit card. it should be enough for casual daily browsing.

I built this because I struggle with Anki burnout and wanted a way to review words without feeling like i am "studying"

It supports Chrome, Edge, and Firefox now. would love any feedback or feature requests!

Show HN: Deterministic PCIe Diagnostics for GPUs on Linux

I built a small Linux tool to deterministically verify GPU PCIe link health and bandwidth.

It reports: - Negotiated PCIe generation and width - Peak Host→Device and Device→Host memcpy bandwidth - Sustained PCIe TX/RX utilization via NVML - A rule-based verdict derived from observable hardware data only

This exists because PCIe issues (Gen downgrades, reduced lane width, risers, bifurcation) are often invisible at the application layer and can’t be fixed by kernel tuning or async overlap.

Linux-only: it relies on sysfs and PCIe AER exposure that Windows does not provide.

Hi HN,

I’m from the team at Nuon. While building in the Bring Your Own Cloud (BYOC) space, we realized there wasn't a centralized, community-driven resource like awesome-selfhosted.net for managed software that lives in the customer's VPC.

We hope software vendors will open a PR and add their BYOC offerings.
