WingNews

Build it! Show HN!

Let https://github.com/plibither8/refined-hacker-news be your inspiration. Put out the tip jar, I will tip!

(Firefox first class citizen in this regard pls if possible)

This actually looks really cool! Especially the dark mode and the feature of showing the comments reply to which actually is something that I wanted as well!

Honestly this is how Hackernews should look haha!

It does take some time in firefox/zen tho in the start so its not really instant (especially the bars which are shown next to the comment to indicate who they are responding to)

For some reason also, Hackernews stopped working when I installed this extension, my wifi may have glitched and I reconnected to wifi so its working now.

It's pretty cool fwiw.

I'm fairly certain I've seen someone create RSS feeds of HN, in which case your RSS client should be have filtering options.

I made a bookmarklet for that back when ChatGTP was introduced - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33890678. It needs updating, but the gist should still work.

javascript:(function() {function match(text) {return text.match(/((chat\s?g[pt]{2})|claude|llm|gen\s?ai|((^|\s)ai(\s|$))|anthropic|mistral|gemini|open\s?ai|prompt\sengineer|prompt\sinject)/i)}; if (document.getElementsByClassName("comment-tree").length) { Array.from(document.getElementsByClassName("comtr")).filter(elt => match(elt.innerText)).forEach(e => e.parentNode.removeChild(e)); } else { Array.from(document.getElementsByTagName("a")).filter(elt => match(elt.innerText)).forEach(a => { const tr = a.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode; const table = tr.parentNode; const details = tr.nextSibling; const spacer = details?.nextSibling; table.removeChild(tr); if (details) table.removeChild(details); if (spacer)table.removeChild(spacer);});}})();

This should do the trick for you: https://hcker.news/?exclude=llm,vibe,openai,anthropic,claude...

Top result on that is currently "Show HN: ChartGPU – WebGPU-powered charting library" so maybe it's not as robust as it sounds.

I’d like to see social credit score mechanisms hidden. Reputation systems reinforce cults of celebrity and turns nerds into tyrannical hall monitors.

A lot of it is hidden. If you offend the moderators they put restrictions on your account.

Ironically, LLMs would be perfect for implementing such a filter.

No, they wouldn't.

We've been doing Bayesian content (aka spam) filtering for over 20 years, based in no small part on Paul Graham's essay "A plan for spam". According to HP [1], a home computer at the time had a single 1.5Ghz core and 256Mb of RAM.

Using LLMs would achieve essentially the same while requiring a couple orders of magnitude more resources.
