There is a Greasemonkey script called 'HN Toolkit' which performs a lot of useful functions, one of which is blocking articles based on regex matches. So all you have to do would be to enter 'iPad' into the toolkit options and it'll hide all links with the word in it.

Apart from this it also adds a searchYC box and has support for split view.

really, guys? In less than a week it'll be back to normal. I don't understand why people are all "not in MY HACKER NEWS" - this is what people are talking about. In 3 days we'll be back to Clojure and Haskell and "rate my startup" and "I built using in ."

Well, the great thing about this is that it is a welcome change from the "HN is being overrun, please stop posting/upvoting articles about X or from site Y" complaint. This makes a point by distributing a tool, that seems very hacker-ish.

I'm upvoting it for the spirit even though I probably will remove it after seeing whether it works in Chrome.

It does. Works under GreaseKit on Safari too.
