Any good tutorial or course to learn chrome extensions dev
Shameless plug: I was totally dissatisfied with the state of extension documentation and tutorials, so I wrote a book on building Chrome extensions: https://www.buildingbrowserextensions.com/

For your next side project, make a browser extension
I was enthusiastic enough about extensions that I decided to publish a book about building them: https://www.buildingbrowserextensions.com/
Browser extensions are severely underrated as a platform because they aren't sexy. For all that mobile devices have given us, so much of our work continues to be done using a desktop browser. Enhancements such as augmenting websites with widgets, supplying contextual information, and automating repetitive tasks using the authenticated session - when applied appropriately - can save someone hours every day.

Ask HN: What weird technical scene are you fond/part of?
Browser extensions. Not quite a website, not quite a mobile app, and surprisingly pervasive. Most people don't realize how incredibly powerful they are, even with manifest v3.
I almost fell out of my chair when I found out there were no books on how to build them, so I wrote one: https://www.buildingbrowserextensions.com/ It was incredibly enjoyable to go through the APIs and write about all the different crazy things they can do.

“UBO Minus (MV3)” – An Experimental uBlock Origin Build for Manifest V3
I was frustrated with the lack of resources, so I'm publishing a book on it: "Building Browser Extensions". Available later this year. https://www.buildingbrowserextensions.com/

Orisinal: Morning Sunshine (recovered old flash games)
The memories…
I often wondered what would happen to those wonderful Orisinal mini games after Flash's death, without actually checking out the site. Would Ferry Halim find the time to port them to "HTML5"? Would they just… disappear forever?
It turns out that they know run in Ruffle[1], a Rust/WASM based Flash Player emulator I've never heard of (or forgotten about). The handful of them that I have tested work flawlessly.

WebAssembly Playground
shrug It finds its uses. It's just not that overstated.
sandspiel is quite popular and is built using WASM: https://sandspiel.club/
Google Earth - https://blog.chromium.org/2019/06/webassembly-brings-google-...
Ruffle (the "make Flash run safely" tool) - https://ruffle.rs/
Ableton's Learning Synths - https://learningsynths.ableton.com/
etc etc. It's just hard to tell when something is using WASM when it "just works" and is indistinguishable from optimized JavaScript

Amon Tobin – Foley Room site (2007)
I was amazed that the site still runs, apparently still using the same engine.
But it seems that it was a flash site (of course), and archive.org seems to replace Flash Player with "Ruffle" [1]. Either that, or someone of Tobin's team replaced Flash with Ruffle >= 2019.

New York Times Flash-based visualizations work again
Out of curiosity a couple months ago I wondered if I could play my old Proximity flash game on Newgrounds from the browser within the Quest 3 VR headset, and it worked great!
That led me to do a little searching, and I discovered that originally the game didn't work in Ruffle, as I apparently did something with the play game button that wasn't normal. But someone put a fix in it back in 2020[1] in order to get my game working again. That was pretty neat. Felt kind of nice that people still cared enough about my old game to make sure it still works in an emulator.
Still working on a more in-depth sequel (using Monogame), and I'm way overdue to make a new web version of the original. Might knock that out once I get closer to getting the sequel out there.
