Oh, I know. I never wondered why. I merely said that I can't get a job to refute the article.

- pcthrowaway 3y agoYou can get a job. You've made it clear that you know what you need to do to get a job (be more flexible with the language you'll work in, remove all non-technical opinions from your blog, and for the love of god stop carrying a fucking gun with you everywhere) If you don't want to do the things that would qualify you for the available jobs, that's not because your technical posts wculdn't make you stand out, positively, it's because you're choosing not to!
- gavinhoward 3y agoI'm already infamous for my personal opinions in the tech world. Will removing he personal posts and putting them on a separate blog really work? (I do already have a domain.) I'm not so sure it would work. By the time I thought about it, I had already gone viral on HN and the personal attacks had started.
- pcthrowaway 3y agoYes, absolutely, it will work fine. People on the Internet don't have that long of a memory and many people will not have seen your articles on HN. No one is going to look your site up on the wayback machine. You can also ask dang to delete some of your posts on HN if it helps disassociate your name from discussions like these (though I doubt most people would think to look you up on HN based on a name)
- gavinhoward 3y agoOkay, thank you. But I'm still going to carry when I feel I need to.
