Show HN: Sifted – paste a link, keep only the parts worth reading
Jev caught my attention since last week's announcement, so I decided to build a tiny experiment with it.
You paste one or several URLs, optionally say what topics you care about, and Jev gives every block of each page a relevance score; you set the strictness and only the blocks above it are shown, laid out in one view. A quick way to sift through the filler, or see only what's relevant to you from a website.
You can try it on HN: paste news.ycombinator.com (or click on "Front pages") and type a topic of your interest in "focus on...".
This is simply a POC. There's no signup, no ads, and it's free while it lasts.
Let me know your thoughts.

Show HN: I measured my tmux statusbar at 15% of a core and replaced the forks
tmux status-interval 1 had six #() programs for statusbar, on battery that was 15.4% of a core.
After digging found fork+exec through sh -c is ~14.6 ms and computing the actual segments was 2.6 ms on my device.
Plus had ~1.5k lines of zsh scripts.
Now one deamon process, caches in memory, unix socket and one #() for the whole right side. From 153.77 ms/s → 18.43 ms/s.
Made that into a tmux plugin. You can try it without installing/configuring:
docker run --rm -it lonkarorg/tmux-companion:playground

Update Chrome: 108 security fixes for desktop, new release for Android
Over the last few days, Google issued several different Chrome updates.
On September 22, Google released a Stable Channel Update for Desktop. This is the most important one for desktop users. It brings Chrome to version 154.0.8037.57 for Linux and versions 154.0.8037.57/.58 for Windows and Mac. The update includes 108 security fixes including 11 rated Critical.
It will roll out over the coming days and weeks.
One day later, Google released Chrome 155 for Android, version 155.0.8059.16, to a small percentage of users. It may not be available on Google Play for everyone yet, but keep an eye out for it. Google says it includes stability and performance improvements.
On top of these, Chrome 155 is also available in the Beta channel. The Android release is an Early Stable rollout, meaning Google sends it to a small share of users first, to spot unexpected compatibility or reliability issues before expanding it to everyone. Beta is a separate prerelease version for people who want to try upcoming features roughly four to six weeks before Stable. It is relatively polished but can still contain bugs, so it is best suited to testing rather than everyday use.
How to update ChromeThe easiest option is to allow Chrome to update automatically. But you can end up lagging behind on updates if you never close your browser or if something goes wrong, such as an extension preventing the update.
If you don’t want to wait for the rollout to reach you, manually updating is easy. open About Google Chrome from Chrome’s settings or Help menu. Chrome will check for updates. If one is available, click Relaunch to apply it.
Chrome 154.0.8037.58 is up to dateYou can find an explanation of the version numbering system and step-by-step instructions in our guide: How to update Chrome on every operating system.
Technical detailsSome of the desktop security fixes deserve a closer look.
Let’s start with CVE-2026-95350, a buffer overflow flaw in ANGLE, Chrome’s graphics-translation layer.
A buffer overflow is a bug in code that allows an attack to happen when a program puts more data into an area of memory than it can hold. Essentially, the attacker writes garbage data that fills up the memory, then writes code that overwrites existing code in adjoining memory, which later gets executed by the vulnerable process.
A crafted webpage could potentially trigger the flaw, which could lead to memory safety bugs, including browser crashes or possible code execution.
Another Critical buffer overflow bug in ANGLE is tracked as CVE-2026-95281. A malicious webpage could potentially reach vulnerable graphics-processing code, so the bug may enable serious impacts such as browser compromise, but Google has not provided exploitation details.
And then there is CVE-2026-95357, an out-of-bounds write in Chrome’s GPU component. This means a program could write data outside its intended area of memory.
The GPU component is the part of Chrome that handles how graphics work with your computer’s graphics processor.
