I haven't till he did a second time in a matter of minutes. FYI, I'm a woman. It's my policy to generally not correct people who misgender me on HN, but in this case I will note it and suggest that perhaps your powers of observation aren't the best. Someone mentioned existential dread, which also really has nothing to do with anything "on topic." I commented on that about finding it sort of funny. Lots of people felt some need to reply to my comment when most of my comments get very little engagement. I wish my more serious comments got more meaty engagement. This whole thing strikes me as a ridiculous overeaction.

I am sorry for not using the correct gender, which is obviously an error on my part. It is not correct to asume anything and it seriously hurts the conversation. Sometimes I whish we had a gender neutral language. It would make things fair. You initial comment wasn't serious? You are somewhat confusing to talk to. Let's end this and agree to disagree.

  No, it's completely serious. I seriously find it amusing. It's just not anything that merits some giant pile-on of pushback from HN that makes it sound like I'm some extremely famous and influential environmental activist who just pulled a William Shatner and laughed in the face of my core audience on SNL and told them to "get lives" and "worry about something more important." To me, this is like "Woah, dude. HN is histrionic here. Wow."
