Hello, HN. On the rare occasion my writing has appeared on the front page, the tone of some anonymous commenters has left me feeling indignant. Last time, someone called me a dog.

Please keep in mind that a fellow human wrote this piece! You don't have to be nice, but at least be constructive.

The internet is the birth place and death place of lots of people's hopes and dreams for making humanity better :)

In 2004 when that was published it had already been true since, in my opinion, at least 1996...

Ahhahah, yes I completely agree, the moment my opinions are even plausibly associated to my name and people are watching, then I become the politest person possible
Let me assure you that, in general, dogs are way better people than humans.
Surely they were just making a wild assumption, because I've been informed that on the internet, no one knows you're a dog.
They made an educated guess—-and they were right.
Hi. I didn't read this. I don't go on medium.com. please consider another content distribution method.
I did read it. But Medium.com doesn't seem to support RSS feeds at all. I would have liked to add a feed for your articles so I could read them even when they don't make the front page of HN.
Here is a dynamic feed [0] as generated by rss-proxy [1]. Hope that does the job for you.
