The fact that people like you are here makes HN still worthwhile while all other social media networks seem to fall flat.

I’d love to think John Carmack is here among us; cleverly disguised under some cute u/n we’d never get unless it was explained to us.

He is actually here, undisguised and even joins discussions sometimes:

Welp; meeting him briefly by accident once was the reason I decided to go straight into the field of development instead of going to school for it around 2008.

I took a moment and read some of his contributions - very fascinating to read his comments on the whole Oculus thing, especially!

Thank you so kindly for sharing that.
