I can't bring myself to click it right now while I'm at work, just in case.

  I'm in the same boat. I'm not sure it's the best choice for a technical blog, especially when many people visit them at work.

    I picked it kind of on a whim and as a hack (are they still allowing porn under .com?). I like the aesthetic symmetry of the domain and TLD, in general. There was a funny potential bug in our code several months ago which almost led to the comment // XXX TODO FIXME nop is doing too much Perhaps that link back to development/tech might have been too much of a stretch :)

      Yeah ideally we all work for understanding, cool tech companies, but unfortunately that's not the truth. I recommend you buy another similar, safer domain and have this one forward to it.

        ^Agreed. The .xxx domain is a bit unprofessional IMO. \

          Depending on the profession.

            To quote a wise man: It's not porn. xxx does not always mean porn. Sometimes it means Vin Diesel.

              Or it's written on the liquor jug held by a cartoon hobo.

                Or it's a homage to this year's XXX Olympics.

              The sequel was Ice Cube, I believe. :)

      Highly amusing to be honest.

        Yes, quite. ಠ_ರೃ

  I trust HN, clicked it and got the first and only "Blocked" message. Saw the ".xxx" domain and freaked out.
