According to your website, you are a young, white male, Google engineer, that lives in California and owns a plane. You really have nothing to worry about.

- woah 11y agoDid he say he had something to worry about?
- xacaxulu 11y agoSweeping generalizations based on race and gender aren't helpful in this discussion. He is I'm sure a complex and multifaceted individual, just like we all are.

- dang 11y agoI think dmitrygr is being unduly dismissive and, like a lot of commenters, ought to take more time to understand. Nevertheless, you can't attack someone personally like this on HN, regardless of how wrong they may be.
- gkop 11y agoI appreciate your work encouraging civility and positivity on HN, dang. Would you elaborate here a bit please? dmitrygr said "I wonder if I could sue because I am now being discriminated against?" Can you answer this without considering dmitrygr?
- dang 11y agoI'm afraid I don't understand the question. Edit: oh, I get it now. Regardless of what one thinks of his argument, it was clear what dmitrygr meant by that, so those personal details didn't add any necessary information. Meanwhile, the damage caused by using someone else's personal details as ammunition is a big deal. We can't allow that to become a thing—nothing would destroy the discourse faster. So, from a moderation point of view: low benefit, high cost, bad idea.
- gkop 11y agoI disagree but I appreciate your response. Thank you.
