losethos seems to have lost his patience or something (see bottom of page). I wonder if it's the lack of attention his work gets - his submissions all have 1 point with 0 comments.
Is there a specific reason or does nobody care about his work?
- kevingadd 13y agoLook at the posting history on some of his other accounts and it'll make sense.
- ancarda 13y agoHis other accounts? I'm relatively new to HN so some context would be much appreciated.
- ars 13y agoIt used to be called LoseThos, then SparrowOS, and now TempleOS. He has another account https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=SparrowOS https://news.ycombinator.com/threads?id=SparrowOS and see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4992749 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4992749
- ancarda 13y agoThat's interesting. I feel sorry that someone who seems to be such a talented programmer has to endure exclusion due to his mental condition. He seems to be aware that he's been shadow banned, although I can't remember enabling "show dead", I may have toggled it by mistake.
- mappu 13y agoHe also (used to?) post a lot on slashdot, osdev, osnews, twitter, reddit and (arguably) 4chan, and he's been banned from most of those. You often see his comments (as Terrence A. Davis) on articles that rank highly here. At some point Poe's law kicks in, and i'm no longer sure whether it's a mental condition (which would be highly regrettable) or if it's the hivemind playing out some elongated surreal prank.
