To be afraid of being "judged" for your relatively tame and objective comments speaks volumes about the state of our increasingly polarized culture.

Re:Ask and Show HN: Ever coded for love? Willing to share? on Saturday August 08, 2020 @10:21AM (#24091789)
I have a website that I once coded for love. I don't want to share details because of my identity, but I loved a distant woman. We had strong affection for each other but at the time the romance wouldn't work for many reasons. The website mirrored something she worked on (similar to a fashion blog, but not that subject - again, identity) and I made this one in a few hours and sent it to her. She loved it.

Three years later, we're together - and couldn't be happier.

I think in that way a picture helps - if someone is biased by only looking at a picture, that's a job you don't want.

After what happened to BE, I'll never use or support Mozilla again.
Precisely correct and more eloquent than my own thoughts on the matter. Thank you for being more civil than I. :)
Any time I hear the term "Apple hater" with no justification or reasoning, I can't help but think that person is of the lowest intelligence.

(Or Android hater, or any other tech "hater" for that matter. Why can't we accept that companies do different things without proclaiming ourselves as "haters"?)
