What it does

Chrome's Manifest V3 is often said to be the end of ad blockers as we know them. We decided to check that and we're now publishing the first ad blocker that is built on the new platform. Check it out and see what awaits us in the future.

    Ported this in an evening because the policy finally kicked the bucket in my Chrome install. It works reasonably well and I haven't found any issues with stability or importing external rules yet.

    Hi HN I built a simple, lightweight ad blocker Chrome extension and wanted to share it with the community for feedback.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    Hey HN, I've been working on https://pornpen.ai, a site for generating adult images. Please only visit the site if you are 18+ and willing to look at NSFW images. This site is an experiment using newer text-to-image models. I explicitly removed the ability to specify custom text to avoid harmful imagery from being generated. New tags will be added once the prompt-engineering algorithm is fine-tuned further. If the servers are overloaded, take a look at the feed and search pages to look through past results.
