Protip: In almost no circumstances is it a good idea to make comments about someone's spouse. Much less on a professional forum, and certainly not on HN. Regardless of the intent, the potential for misunderstandings, over reactions, and incorrect inferences is great, meanwhile such comments almost never add any meaning to the discussion.

- kyzyl 13y agoYeh. I guess usually when I'm on HN I just respond to people as if they're real, have a brain and not intentionally trying to stir shit up. In this case I didn't even notice the name. Alas, perhaps times have changed around here and I need to start treating people like redditors until proven innocent ;-)
