To the "Mike" that sent me that wonderful little note:
I replied, then realized that you had used a honeypot email as the address, so I'll post what I wrote here. It would have gone to your email, otherwise. I would like to mention that I stand behind every post I make, and every email I send. I deleted my last anonymous account many moons ago.
> You still sound insecure.
:)
Probably. It's not your problem, though. It's mine. I am constantly working on that.
I will say that it was pretty devastating to get assaulted for my age. It totally rocked my world. I'm definitely still recovering from that, and I am still quite angry about it.
Thanks (really) for taking the time to look at my HN page and sending this. I regularly get attacked by some pretty savage folks (comes from the NPO work I do), so your note doesn't bother me at all.
Heck, maybe we have a lot in common. You know where to reach me. I'm a pretty decent chap.
When I first left my job, I was insecure, and companies could have taken advantage of that.
No more.
