What I want for christmas on news.yc: Everybody fill out your profile! There are too many people here who say useful things, but there's no way to contact you (no, the email field in your profile isn't public). I imagine few people here have grounds for staying completely anonymous. Not everybody is a rich bastard trying to kick unwashed beggars to the curb. So click on your name in the upper right hand corner and wr…

I never noticed that emails were not shared publicly. I always assumed that people I wanted to speak with simply had not filled in that field.

Good call.

Get off HN, turn off the computer, and enjoy the wonderful sin of gluttony.

Merry Christmas.

Allahu Akbar!

lol, FYI, muslims don't say Allahu Akbar when the intention is to congragulate an happy occasion.

Mabrook! (assuming an Arabic-speaking Muslim, of course :P)

Everyone take this time while visiting family to upgrade their browser to something other than IE6. I did my part last night.

Even if they're on IE7, get them to go to IE8. Less buggy, and it has a js debugger.

Your family probably doesn't need a debugger. Get them onto Chrome.

They'll love the new UI, and it'll silently auto-update so you won't have to upgrade it again.
