I can’t reply to your nth nested comment so I’ll do it here. You did call me racist, just like you did today. That’s how I knew EXACTLY which tweet it was 8 years later. Tweets can…

Claiming I refused to “explicitly reject racism” “eight years ago” is a loaded statement. You might as well accuse me of having refused to deny I was beating me wife. That would al…

I don’t have any ability to flag comments. You need to stop inventing fantasies about me and claiming they’re true. EDIT: and I switched accounts bc I forgot I made a newer one wit…

So you think you were trying to teach me with socratic dialogue by calling me racist? rather than asking, oh I don’t know, “what kind of goods”? You made your decision — you called…

Motivated reasoning. “She blocked me therefore I must be right!”

Some people have since reached out to me and told me: 1. The CEO randomly picks on women on twitter he thinks subtweeted him and writes their bosses 2. The same lock-out mechanism …

How is it obnoxious to expect to be able to log in and add a payment plan yourself? Literally every other Saas that serves business customers does that. None glibly say “oh yeah an…

You can email me at team@stackingthebricks.com To anyone else reading: that’s a shared inbox, behave.

I really appreciate you saying that. Don’t worry about it, it’s not causing me any distress and I’m too sick to do anything productive right now anyway. But this place is a cesspit…

“mass produced hand made artisan goods” is not a thing. You’re inventing things and putting words in my mouth, just like you did originally, which is why you’re blocked. No, you ca…

Dude are you mad I deprived you of my tweets for 8 years, or are you mad I’m supposedly a racist? You can’t have it both ways. This is weird. You should stop.

This is a really fun idea. Obviously when you do real user tests, they’re too professional to curse but finding and fixing UI friction by curses per minute is very appealing!

Yes she also willfully misread “mass produced goods” and asked me why I didn’t think Chinese artisans should use etsy for their handmade goods, a classic loaded question and a posi…

Here’s the tweet you claim is racist — I know bc it’s the only time anyone has called me racist. I complained that Etsy w searches were dominated by mass produced goods from China …

Over a decade, I went from doing grunt work freelancing — data entry, HTML conversion, etc — to charging about $500 an hour as a true consultant. Freelancers do what they're told. …

seminar -> mailing list (aka newsletter, aka free) SEO bait -> a thing I wrote on my blog with the words "Apple Watch" in it like a million other pieces, there is literally zero ch…

1. I linked to hundreds of people saying exactly that thing, plus it's all over Twitter, the op-ed-osphere, in-person conversations, etc. 2. I argued very clearly: Apple Watch is n…

You call it the "shitty friend" thread is pretty inflammatory considering, again, that was the OP's own words (not mine). I turned on showdead and my dead comment that you're refer…

Neither of your things in "quotes" are things that I said. The "shitty friend" was alexcap's own words. The phrase "think of, or care for, others" didn't show up in my comment at a…

Oooh, is being saucy or mildly disagreeable not allowed either? I get the hint.

Hi there. Why not tell me why I was hellbanned then? Here's my comment history. Such bullying, so horrible, wow: https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=ahoyhere The only conclusio…

He's not belittling it, he's (politely and patio11-ly) saying: "Stop putting this huge space between me and you because it isn't there, and you're short-selling yourself by pretend…

Our business makes several times what patio11's does and we are not a runaway success, either, not by a long shot. If you do not actually attempt to make a business — by selling so…

Take a peek at http://groupbuzz.com , developed by one of my students for just that problem. Its best use case is for paid communities of one kind or another.

What Dan said. Passion doesn't have to be for topic area . Passion can be for helping people, for solving problems (whatever they are), for seeing your work in the hands of people …
