on: YC News. Open external links in new tabs. It's about time
Lol. It's not evil if I'm at a news aggregator where I expect to be clicking on multiple aggregated news items. Think about how many Ctrl and Cmd key presses that will be saved. Jeez!

Jeez. Very strong reactions against that. I guess I might be the only one feeling that pain. I guess I will have to write my own bookmarklet for that.

on: Why HAL should be the RESTful API standard.
I think HAL as a standard will go a long way to properly shape the RESTful API community because of its embedded links and curies

on: N2 Smartpen – Writes on Paper but Also Mirrors into Smart Devices
This is genius. It dwarf's the stylus in style and user-friendliness. I think this is a step towards permanent storage for humanity. With further advancement on this technology we might never need to worry about what happens to papers after we're done writing. So many applications.

on: Ebola threatens chocolate
I think the scare is overshot and the prices are not rising due to Ebola. As a resident of Ghana, there's very little on the local news any more about Ebola. Now it's merely a myth to us as we've been hearing about it for months without any real scare yet. That being said, should Ebola strike either Ivory Coast or Ghana, any rise in prices are going to be due to greedy middlemen because the transport of cocoa in these countries is completely separate from the public and the areas where cocoa is actually grown are remote and secluded from the public. So I don't think our chocolate is in danger just yet. Not for another year at least.

on: How to Hire for Cultural Fit
That's true. I think that too little emphasis is put on culture, and too much on skills. Thankfully, the developed world is catching up quick on that. How soon before the developing world gets the gist?
