And of course the HN boys club doesn't see anything wrong with the headline. I expected nothing less :( Seriously, people: "No means yes" is a clear reference

Seriously, people: "No means yes" is a clear reference to "No means no". It's a really bad choice of headline, because it communicates "I don't care about issues that women are facing, if it gets me a catchy headline".
- danso 14y agoI'd be inclined to be ambivalent on this, except that in the OP there is no literal "yes" or "no" involved (i.e., something like, "I set the MONGO_UNSAFE_DATA_COMMIT flag to 'No'") so I'm not even sure what the headline means, except that it gets a little edge parodying the anti-rape saying. At least you can't blame the OP for thinking too much about SEO.
