hey guys I was introduced to emrysghosthacker@gmail.com because i really wanted to know what my husband has been up to lately as I seem not to be getting his attention. Emrys was able to hack into my husband’s Facebook, Snapchat, WhatsApp, Instagram and above all gave me full access to his mobile phone and emails without touching the phone. I couldn't help but to introduce him to those who have their spouse cheating on them and want to spy on them. contact emrysghosthacker@gmail.com or wechat at emryshelp he will help you out with any hacking related issues, tell him rhonda referred you..thank me later.you can also contact him-+14088189369.....

This is interesting to hear. I thought Zed's book on C programming was reasonably good but I lost an awful lot of respect for him with his strange and nearly incomprehensible tirades against Python 3.

LOL. An account with these as the only comments and no submissions? Man this place is so weird. It's like you're at a party, and then some guy can scream at you from across the room while wearing a Richard Nixon mask and everyone goes "Oh yeah that is true." Never questioning why the guy is wearing a mask at a party. Anyway, I think you need to look up the words "tirade" and "incomprehensible"

Looks like you got some haters... The only reason to make a throw away in order to bash you - deservedly or not I don't know - is because you know this person and they don't want to remove their Nixon mask and risk a real life confrontation.

tldr: Welcome to the Internet

I did not create this account as a throwaway. I just don't have the inclination to comment on HN much and was lurking for a long time until recently. As proof I point you to my Reddit account of the same name which has a great deal of activity and which is reasonably well recognised and regarded in certain communities. I say this to demonstrate that I am not creating burner personas for the sole purpose of starting flame wars - but I did think it was worth stating in this discussion that Zed has succeeded in discrediting himself in some programming circles.
