#4It's almost, but not quite entirely unlike HN

#5Y'all just don't know how scary is for LGBTQIAP+ women in the community to get started in programming; GitHub algorithms recommend software projects based on the attention they get, and not on how welcoming or easy-to-contribute they are. This is just one example of how exclusionary algorithms contribute to expanding the ever growing gender gap in our industry. We. Must. Fix. That.
And now, if you disagree with me and are white, male, and able, please spend that time in silence instead and reflect on how your privilege is blinding you.
PS: if there's any non-binary non-cis afghan being with a poverty background who wants to join the latest Non-binary Beings who Code initiative, please send me an email, we urgently need more diversity right now. My email is on my profile, include "HN" somewhere in the subject.

HN actually has a real mix of viewpoints. 4channers like to claim that 4chan is king because its not the echo chamber that reddit is, but when it comes to politics 4chan really is a right wing echo chamber. HN actually contains decent amounts of both so it manages to trigger everyone.

HN is Marxist in social issues and randians in economic issues.

Honestly, /g/ is no small part of why I ended up in tech. In 2011 I was a bored econ student spending my nights working programming problems posted to /g/, trying to get gentoo to run on my macbook pro (eventually giving up and 'ricing' crunch bang so I could post pictures of my desktop..) and arguing about things I didn't understand.
It was a fun distraction, but eventually I outgrew it. I'm sure if I dug around I could find my old /g/ folder full of stupid tech memes.

#8Ah yes, a bunch of idiots throwing around the n-word and making fun of gay people.
Exactly what I want to see on my front page.
