Why the link of Hack News is not "open in the new tab"
It is annoying to right click and chose open in the new tab.

It's annoying if a web page opens regular links in a new tab without you explicitly telling it to do so.
You could make a Greasemonkey script that changes the link targets in HN, if there isn't one already.

Use middle mouse button or cmd/ctrl+click. This is taught in Internetting 101.
That's what the middle mouse button is for.
