Pourquoi?
When I hit something like 2000 karma under my old handle -- and probably the top 3 people on the leaderboard all had about 50k at the time -- I began getting weird comments that suggested to me I was viewed as "prominent for a woman" on HN, though the bottom of the leaderboard was probably around 10k at the time.I'm a big fat nobody in the real world and was nowhere near qualifying as having "a lot" of karma for HN and yet comments seemed to suggest people found me noteworthy. So I spent some time keeping private data to try to sort out what the heck was going on.Those records are long lost and I'm disinclined to say too much about them publicly, but I mention them to say I did track data of some sort related to gender and HN membership for a time.
I'm disinclined to say much about them in part because my private records include data about trans individuals passing as female. So I don't have any means to be both ethically protective of their privacy and 100 percent accurate about what that data says.
Their privacy is my higher priority. Fuck you. Keep your own data if you NEED to know.
Genevieve was a MtF trans individual and through her I had sensitive information of various sorts on multiple other people.
She said the secret sibling of a big name celebrity was her "best friend." That information -- about a secret sibling existing -- is publicly available and I could probably link to it and prove it.
You've read Harriet The Spy I assume? Non?
S'il vous plaƮt, faites-le.
It's unfortunate that I helped a troubled youth who then burned me and ran around telling lies about me.
My good name won't be restored by publicly airing things people don't want aired.
Sucks to be me. Why don't you get a better goddamned hobby than desperately wanting to know why a HOMELESS loser does the shit she does, like remain on Hacker News while everyone treats her like a pariah?
I deleted the comment made on one of my subs advising me of her attacks on me, wrote a few blog posts -- because clearly just keeping my mouth shut about her is ALSO not okay with people -- and later redacted them as was a very common practice for me at one time.
Most likely, there ARE people who KNOW for a fact I got BURNED for being kind to someone in a pickle. Yet I remain in Social Cyberia.
That's on YOU unethical assholes. My conscience is clear.
