Ask HN: Looking for a project to volunteer on? (February 2024)
SEEKING VOLUNTEERS: https://letsblock.it - https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/
A companion project for uBlockOrigin that curates a corpus of content blocking templates, and provides the server to create you personal list of content blocking rules. The official instance just hit 800 active lists and a lot of template suggestions have been filed recently.
The easiest way to contribute is to create new templates, fix or extend existing ones. You need to learn the uBlockOrigin syntax and how to properly target the right elements, happy to mentor! See recent PRs for examples and https://github.com/letsblockit/letsblockit/blob/main/data/fi... for documentation.
The server itself is built with Go and HTMX, it's pretty low-maintenance, but there's interesting improvements if you want to toy with it (need to open issues for these).

I use a combination of:
- https://letsblock.it/ and Ublock Origin
- The Unhook plugin for Firefox
- Blocking channels on my YouTube account when I see something inappropriate
- Adguard Home also blocks certain channels
to try to moderate the YouTube content for my kids. It's not perfect, but it does get rid of a lot of garbage (like YouTube Shorts).

Show HN: uBlock Origin filters to remove distractions
You should submit these rules to https://letsblock.it ! AFAIK their distractions rules really only cover YouTube
-
Some veteran YouTube staff think Shorts might ruin YouTube
They're horrible.
Luckily you can use ublock origin and letsblockit, or other browser plugins, to completely erase them from YouTube.

Ask HN: What cool software utilities have you created?
https://letsblock.it : it allows you to create your own content blocking rule list from a corpus or community-maintained templates. It allows you to hide pinterest and stackoverflow clones from search results, remove shorts and upcoming streams from youtube, and many more. The project is now two years old and sustaining a slow but steady growth with an active community.

PPG.report now works globally
Thank you u/aeharding !!! I use ppg.report regularly -- you can Sponsor/support Alexander and his hard work here: https://github.com/sponsors/aeharding
-
Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
https://ppg.report
Shows a nicely formatted weather report for flying my paramotor, pulling data in from many different sources :-)

Flying in Restricted Airspace - You can do it! [US]
Why use it when you have Windy.com and Windy.app and ppg.report and aviationweather.gov ?
-
Best weather app?
Yep I like ppg.report for quick no fluff wind speeds at different altitudes. When I just want to basics standing in the field or driving to an LZ, Windy is for large screen analyses at home days beforehand.
-
Can we share the apps we all using for Paramotoring?
PPG.report (web) - I have it as an Icon on my iPhone for quick access to the NOAA GFS model data, which gives you 24 hours of wind predictions at different altitudes. It is not always accurate, but it IS predicting a solid 20 km square. I prefer this now over RyanCarlton.com because there are weather forecasts and airspace restrictions built in. It's very pretty too! I think Alexander Harding lurks in here. You can see and view the code for the website too. You can donate to Alexander's work on Github as well.

Ask HN: What not-profit-seeking project are you tinkering with this week?
https://ppg.report
Flying my paramotor is one of the things I love to do in my free time, and this project (weather report for paramotor pilots) is the result of that!
Also open source https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report

Dropping the Windy App...Need another app to check for conditions
I like ppg.report, but I always thought it was just a re-skined version of wind.ppgzone.com

How much updraft velocity is too much for a newer pilot?
https://ppg.report/ and RyanCarlton.com show you CAPE and CIN.

Where can I get the current local aviation forecast in my area? Especially cloud base? Thanks.
It only works if your location is within 30 miles of an airport. In which case you will see a little widget in the header, as seen here: https://github.com/aeharding/ppg.report/releases/tag/v2.1.0
