- cantbecool 14y agoThat's freaking hilarious. Who knew hackers needed sex tips. I had to do a double take on the domain to see if they were identical.

- kahawe 14y agoI honestly wish nothing Eric wrote would ever be linked on HN again. He had his hey-days, he grabbed enough asses at conventions and harassed enough unsuspecting girls and we should just never mention him again. This is not the 90s anymore and I just hope stuff that barely applied in the 90s is more than historic and dated by now and "geeks" and "hackers" are a TON more diverse than that by now. When it comes down to it, he is a politician, a lobbyist and while these roles are arguably not without use I would rather not have someone like that lay down the law what I as a "hacker" should and should not do or how I am supposed to be more like him.
- jiggy2011 14y agoESR is known for harassing girls? Never heard of that but sounds like a fun story.. I actually remember reading ESRs writings as a teenager and actually being slightly afraid of ending up like him.
