CA sues sites hosting 3D printed gun files for unlawful distribution of firearms
Show HN: CSV ↔ JSON converter and CSV line charts
Hi HN,
I often needed quick ways to convert small datasets while prototyping APIs or exploring data.
Most online tools require uploading files, login and signup, which feels slow and sometimes risky for sensitive data.
So I built a small browser-based toolset that runs entirely on the client side.
Current tools: - CSV → JSON converter - JSON → CSV converter - CSV → Line Chart generator
You can paste data directly and get instant results.
Everything runs in the browser (no file uploads on server).
I'm planning to add more utilities like: - CSV → multi-line charts - JSON → charts - more small data tools
Would love feedback on what data utilities people wish existed but can't easily find.

Show HN: I'm building an open source alternative to Topaz Photo AI
Before I start, I know that many people, including myself, have an aversion to "AI apps" nowadays, because these projects are often just thin wrappers around ChatGPT's API to do the heavy lifting.
This is not one of those projects. In this case, all the AI logic in my project is implemented directly: data pre-processing, post-processing, inference, tiling, tensor operations, and everything in between are handled entirely within the project, with no external API doing the heavy lifting.
With that said…
This project aims to be an open-source alternative to Topaz Photo AI. For those unfamiliar with Topaz Labs, they develop paid, proprietary AI applications for enhancing images and videos. While there are free and open-source tools that can achieve similar results, such as ComfyUI, they are often difficult to use. Topaz products, on the other hand, place a strong emphasis on ease of use.
Both Topaz and ComfyUI are excellent tools. That said, I personally rely on Topaz applications most of the time because they cover 90% of my needs with minimal friction. Recently, however, Topaz Labs switched to a subscription-based licensing model, which I strongly dislike. That decision motivated me to build an open-source alternative that matches Topaz’s usability without the subscription lock-in.
My project is called Open Photo AI, completely open source and free. It currently support enhancements like AI upscaling, face recovery and light adjustment. It doesn't have yet all the features that Topaz has, but it's a starting point. My goal is to continue developing it into a fully featured alternative to Topaz Photo AI. If that succeeds, I plan to move on to alternatives for Topaz Video AI and other tools.
I’d appreciate any constructive feedback.

Show HN: Claude Code Container – Zero-Config Docker Isolation for Claude Code
Claude Code's `--dangerouslySkipPermissions` flag is incredibly productive, but it's called "dangerous" for good reason. In practice it has deleted home directories, wiped database files, and read sensitive files completely unrelated to the project. But the default permission prompts interrupt flow constantly -- you end up spending more time approving edits than actually working.
The obvious fix is containers. But every existing approach has painful tradeoffs: - Dockerfile per project: you're now maintaining infrastructure just to use your AI assistant - devcontainer: complex config, slow to set up, breaks differently per IDE - Manual docker run: env vars don't forward, SSH keys aren't available, clipboard copy/paste stops working inside Claude sessions, and localhost:8080 from your host is unreachable from inside the container
I wanted full isolation with zero configuration. ccc (claude-code-container) handles all of this automatically, without any configuration: npm install -g claude-code-container ccc # that's it
What it does: - Creates a per-project container (named by path hash, so --continue/--resume work correctly) - Forwards host env vars, locale, timezone automatically - Mounts SSH keys and SSH agent (git push just works) - Transparent localhost proxy so Claude can reach your host's dev servers at localhost:3000, :8080, etc. even from inside the container - Clipboard works normally in Claude sessions - mise integration for per-project Node/Python/Java/Go versions - Container auto-stops when the last session exits - Chromium + chrome-devtools MCP pre-configured: Claude can open a browser, navigate pages, take screenshots, run JavaScript, and interact with your web app autonomously -- no extra setup
The transparent localhost proxy was the hardest part -- it uses iptables on Linux and a userspace proxy on macOS/Windows (Docker Desktop doesn't support --network host), with automatic fallback to host.docker.internal.

Would love feedback, especially from people who've tried other approaches to this problem.
