rmorabia··on Ask HN: Why is there so much The Atlantic on the frontpage?
Definitely not trolling. The Atlantic may be well-regarded, but it's full of pseudo-science and feel-good news that doesn't seem on par with Hacker News' adherence to quality.
rmorabia··on Show HN: Shortwhale – Get fewer, shorter, and better emails
There's already a tool that does this. Check out http://www.sanebox.com/.
rmorabia··on Nemex – A tiny app that helps you to track and curate ideas and projects
The site is officially broken from an overload of HN requests.
rmorabia··on EtherCalc: Open-source web spreadsheet
I'm not sure if this is very helpful, but my two big issues were the lack of pages, of course, but mostly--the lack of text formatting for each cell. It makes the actual spreadsheet hard to read.

I've still going to use it because yes, it's very necessary to have a social spreadsheet platform that is open-source and that you can host on your own servers. Thanks for the work you put in.

How is this different than say, Twitter or even Facebook Pages?
rmorabia··on Sublevel – A personal network
This was mildly explored in the game Journey: http://thatgamecompany.com/games/journey/
rmorabia··on Which is better, Adblock or Adblock Plus?
Does anyone have any evidence against Adblock Edge?
rmorabia··on Lost Pig
I played this months ago. It's a highly entertaining game that serves as a great introduction to text-based games (formally called Interactive Fiction).
rmorabia··on Static site generators focus on the wrong thing
Medium is NOT a blogging platform, contrary to popular belief. Blogging is owning your content, and when you write for Mediium, make no mistake, it belongs to Medium.

Although, I just switched over from Wordpress to Jekyll, and I find it there to be a lot less friction for publishing. I talked more about the new and exciting workflow of Jekyll at http://rmorabia.com/redesign

I really don't agree with the author here. Hackability is what's aided my decision to publish more. It's just that a lot of people get caught up in the hackability more than the publishing.

Also, there's no data backing this post. I've seen plenty of active Hakyll sites. http://gwern.net is my favorite example.
