7 points by lumenwrites 11y ago

Hi! I would like to read blogs written by people from HN. Can you share your blog, and the best stuff you have written?

Here's mine: http://orangemind.io http://orangemind.io I write short funny sci-fi stories, and sometimes essays on writing, computer science, tech. I have also recently made myself a blog on medium: https://medium.com/@rayalez https://medium.com/@rayalez so you can follow me there if that's more convenient(You can find the list of my best articles in the top post).

  A question to you. Why would you consider medium.com when you are have an established blog?
  - rayalez 11y ago
    It seems like a fun and interesting platform, and that's where a lot of people are. If somebody wants to read my stories on medium - why not give them that opportunity? Also if in five years Medium will be like twitter now - I want to be there. If not - at least it will drive some traffic my way.

These two articles each spent a day on the front page of Reddit: http://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/2007/02/two-weeks-vacation-is-only.html http://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/2007/02/two-weeks-vaca... http://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/2008/05/laid-off-one-thing-you-absolutely-need.html http://www.expatsoftware.com/articles/2008/05/laid-off-one-t... As you can see from the rest of the blog, my internet fame lasted the better part of a week. And it seems I said everything interesting that I had to say during the course of that one year. Recently, I've started writing again about the mechanics of how to run a software company while traveling. I figure I've been doing it long enough that I should have accumulated some good knowledge by now.

I don't write as much as I'd like to lately. It's a very low traffic blog, mind you. My best post traffic-wise is an analysis of a Greek poem/song. The one I like most though, is the one below: http://www.convalesco.org/ http://www.convalesco.org/ http://www.convalesco.org/articles/2014/04/22/please-dont-change-the-world/ http://www.convalesco.org/articles/2014/04/22/please-dont-ch...

  I have read the post you like the most. As an entrepreneur whose motivation is to change the world through software, I find your post insulting. On what basis can you claim that democracy and human rights are better examples of changing the world than is a communication revolution?

Common sense. Communication is useless without democracy. Human rights are all about minorities and tolerance. So 'Democracy' == 'Human Rights'.
