Zeroing Memory is Hard: VC++ 2015 arrays

I browse here with a greasemonkey script to hide links from mainstream news sites, aggregators, etc. That cuts down to mostly just the tech content.

    var links = document.links;
    var boring = [

    matcher = new RegExp('\\b(' + (boring.join('|').replace(/\./g, '\\.')) + ')\\b');
    for (i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {
      hostname = links[i].hostname.replace(/^www\./, '');
      if (hostname.match(matcher)) {
        links[i].style.setProperty('display', 'none');
        links[i].parentNode.insertBefore(document.createTextNode('[removed]'), links[i]);
      }
    }

It's not that I wouldn't read those sites, they're just not what I'm interested in reading when I come here.

Cool! I've been wondering if there is a feed of only the good stuff. If HN itself doesn't provide one, maybe there should be a separate site that does that filtering. I was thinking it would be manually curated, but maybe a list like yours would work as well.

Maybe you should set up such a site. All it would have to do is link to the articles and to the corresponding HN discussions.
