Yes, I am well aware of that. I have been on Hacker News since 2009 under my Mz handle and I have a Certificate in GIS from UC-Riverside, the most respected GIS program in the world at the time that I attended (2002, IIRC).

I don't try to crow about being some kind of tech genius because for the HN crowd I'm not. But I'm not poor due to being mentally retarded or something. I have an incurable medical condition as does one of my adult sons.

Perfectly average geographers on HN represent! I feel like seeing another GISer in the tech world is like seeing someone from your country while on vacation. You’ve just got to say hi because it feels so rare.

Edit: thanks! Solved. I’ve deleted this part of the comment because I always feel very socially awkward and afraid I’ll make others feel awkward.

Sorry for the pain

If you have been in hn so long you do know the numerous times people have lost accounts by not having backup to 2FA. TOTP is the only option.
