Ask HN: Has Anyone Trained a personal LLM using their personal notes?

English is not my first language, so I beg for your forgiveness that I didn't use the they/them. In my language, there is no gendered pronouns, so it's hard for me to guess what's the correct way.

When I use he/him, people tell me I assume everyone on HN and tech is a male.

When I use she/her, you come and label me as misogynistic, too.

At one point I just give up. Or you know, you could also assume positive intent and not label someone misogynistic based on a comment where gender was not at all important to the discussion.

you can use "they" at every where today. but I don't whether someone will accuse you support Trans community.

Another possibility is to use "op", although it can feel a bit forumish.

I used OP, though, I didn't want to use "OP" every time I am referencing this person, I thought it would sound strange OP OP OP...

Anyway, I'm glad this thread turned into a "how you can avoid being called a misogynist in throwaway comment on HN". I guess from now on, I filter through my comments through Gemini to make sure my English is immaculate and that native English speakers don't castigate me for a small mistake.

Mattlondon probably could have done without the color commentary, but I wouldn't take anything you did as wrong in English.

Our lack of singular neuter pronouns sucks. (I.e. singular 'they')
