Southeast Asians in L.A. are being detained, deported at routine ICE check-ins
Show HN: Trailmarks – Huge, browser-based, Carmen Sandiego-style travel game
I'd love to have people test-play my Carmen Sandiego/Backpacker style travel game. It's a retro genre... but if you like geography and quizzes, you'll like this! It's a working alpha with most of the content I intend to add, but I need to have people give it a try now before I decide which directions to fully develop!
I'm torn between putting effort into missions, more advanced in-game trading economy or creating more of a narrative. But I'm also curious if you get the navigation, if the core gameplay makes sense and if you want to continue playing, basically.
Hope you find it worth playing. It's a pure browser game with no login, you're playing for free immediately in this alpha! Please feel welcome to DM feedback or reply or anything!

Show HN: JSONXMLKit – Format JSON/XML and Decode Base64 in the Browser
I built this because I was constantly switching tabs to format JSON or XML, or decode Base64 — and many of the tools I found were either bloated, sent my data to a server, or just didn’t support things like XPath or JSONPath.
JSONXMLKit runs 100% in-browser, and includes:
JSON and XML formatters
Path search with JSONPath and XPath
File-based Base64 encoder/decoder (images, PDFs, etc.)
No login, no uploads. Just a set of quick, client-side tools I needed and decided to share. Feedback welcome!

Ask HN: Should I open source or not?
I am currently working on two projects: a PDF alternative for the blind and Google Maps/navigation for the blind in my city. I started from scratch with no AI or third-party reliance. I have written everything by hand (with considerable difficulty since I am blind), so what I am asking is: is it worth it to open source?
Embarrassing coding style aside, I am concerned about parasitic big corporations taking the code and putting it behind a paywall, which is not what I want for obvious reasons. Putting my projects under GPL will obviously hold them back a bit, with the cost that brilliant programmers who would have helped would be the casualty. Another issue I have is that I want zero AI-bros in my code. Not only would I be inviting disorganized, poorly constructed code, I also don't want these kids copy/pasting to add code they have no right to. What should I do?
