The cells on the left represent actual entries in a locally stored db using CoreData, meaning that they will always be there until you explicitly delete them. Each cell represents an Article object that has a title, url, author, and comment link. So, after the article are long gone off the homepage (or even off of the hn database), they will remain in your iPad with substantial information. There is also an Instapaper integrator button that will instantly send any article to your Instapaper account for offline viewing on a variety of devices, include the iPad. Hope that cleared any concerns.
