I created a dumb little script using this technique that lets you read hacker news in the terminal then opens up the story in your browser.

It's worth noting that Hacker News seems to temporarily block IP addresses if too many requests are made. I'm not sure if it's requests per minute, or within an hour. But my IP was blocked 3 times when playing around with a similar script.
