As a UK citizen I am making a living as a software engineer (contractor). Would I be able to get live and do the same work in America?

I'm not hitting it that often and no one is really using the API yet so I haven't hit any limits.

If I do get banned because of excess use I would stop and put some caching in place or something. I didnt want tot start with a cache because I wanted information from the site to be up to date as possible. HN data changes really quickly, as you know.

The API is here:

{path:"/"}

{path:"/news"}

{path:"/news2"}

{path:"/newest"}

{path:"/newcomments"}

{path:"/ask"}

{path:"/x", uri: (req) -> "/x?fnid=#{req.query.fnid}" }

{path:"/user", uri: (req) -> "/user?id=#{req.query.id}" }

{path:"/item", uri: (req) -> "/item?id=#{req.query.id}"}

{path:"/submitted", uri: (req) -> "/submitted?id=# {req.query.id}"}

{path:"/threads", uri: (req) -> "/threads?id=#{req.query.id}"}

not everything is implemented. Its mostly readonly view of the resources.

Code is here:
