He doesn't seem to take the issues from http://paulgraham.com/say.html http://paulgraham.com/say.html very seriously, maybe because his most controversial position to date has been to support anti-discrimination legislation while living in the heart of a blue state. I have to negotiate for food and shelter with members of a nosy, judgmental, sometimes irrational species. My name doesn't make my arguments more valid, and using it is a stupid risk to take because it doesn't offer me any upside. Without a pseudonym, I wouldn't even offer purely technical opinions when it would affect my ability to line up projects in the future (e.g., just because MySQL is crap or iOS turned evil doesn't mean I'd rather starve than touch them).
