This is an awesome idea and great work! I didn't even know I needed this until now. Now I even feel like something similar should be a regular part of a web browser, just like web development tools :)


You could probably run your bank website in incognito mode and avoid extensions. I do this all the time because I don't completely trust any of my installed extensions. Even if I did, they are auto-updated and their code can change at any time without any notice.


Good idea. You could also access your bank and other sensitive sites with a different profile:

    google-chrome --user-data-dir="/path/to/somewhere/else"
I use this switch and a directory from `mktemp -d` for remote debugging (--remote-debugging-port=1234). The debugging does not disturb my normal browsing and the profile is completely disposable.


This is my all time favourite talk. So much of development complexities are covered in those simple ideas Cheng points out
