Especially if it doesn't even solve the problem.

Except that India is a country and Africa is a continent. And language and ethnic politics aren't the largest issues here: its actual policy and governance. I don't see how language homogenization solved major problems in India other than the east (Nagaland, Assam) or how its democratic to even do this the way the French and English did in their nations to minority languages.

Ask HN: Comfortable chair for small space

I'm trying to set up my home working environment to be a bit more ergonomic. I have about 2.5 feet of space between my bed and my desk, I myself am 6'4" and the desk has about 2 feet of clearance under it. Given these space considerations, does anyone have some recommended chairs?

The website afritech.org looks like a ripoff of hacker news as well.

The add-to-queue mechanic is a bit confusing to jump into. When I click on a song it would be nice if the primary option was to start playing and the add option was a bit smaller. I don't understand why the dialog pops up with "Add To Queue"/other options. It would be simpler if you could just dump something in the queue and make it really easy to remove (say by grouping things from one movie together).
