- teej 16y agoI highly recommend adding your email to your profile. I get emails from HNer's sparsely (about once a month) and they're always detailed, specific, and respectful of my time.
- mahmud 16y agoBest think I have done in my entire internet life is using my real name on HN (a first for this anonymous privacy hawk!) and leaving my contacts. You folks have been the best! Great face to face meetings too.
- nethergoat 16y agoI wish I had the same foresight you did - my one regret about signing up for HN is not using my real name as my username. It would be great if pg added the ability to change one's username, but given the HN community's usual sentiment on feature requests (a sentiment I share), I'm not holding my breath.
- w1ntermute 16y agoYou might want to obfuscate it though. No need to unnecessarily add to the mountain of spam that you already have to wade through because of the surprisingly large number of false positives in Gmail's Spam folder. I have even had SVN commit notifications end up in my Spam folder, even though I have rules in place to tag them! You'd think they would put any emails that I have tag rules for on a whitelist.
