obvious_throw··on Bro Network Security Monitor
That is, until you get fired from your job for thoughtcrime. Being politically correct and believing/saying the right things is required for employment in the tech industry now.
obvious_throw··on Ask HN: Everyone loves my startup concept, why is no one using it?
Probably because your site gives absolutely no indication of what it is you actually do.
obvious_throw··on Why I Don’t Do CrossFit
My affiliate's most recent WOD was a 3RM squat ladder with 2:30 rest between each set. There is nothing "high repetition" about it and there are specifically timed rest intervals to allow for ATP regeneration, etc.

You should refrain from claiming knowledge about the programming of every CF affiliate on the planet. You're absolutely wrong about every single thing you have claimed in this comment thread.

#3: She files suit, and wins, because the legal climate surrounding harassment cases is overwhelmingly in her favor and she knows it.

I can't take claims of the above seriously in the US, because women are 100% legally protected from professional retribution when declining said "deals". I can't speak to outside the US, but here, the protections are vast and absolute.

It's not 1913 anymore, any anybody who claims otherwise needs to wake up to the current legal reality.

obvious_throw··on Asian workers now dominate Silicon Valley tech jobs (2012)
That's so strange. According to Shanley Kane and Anil Dash, the Valley is dominated by racist white men who systematically exclude all outgroups.

Clearly, this article is just the white supremacists and their power structures writing puff pieces to hide the slavery lurking within the black heart of the Valley?

obvious_throw··on How Americans Die
My initial guess would be that Patriarchy historically oppressed women off of the battlefield, kept them out of the coal mines, prevented them from enjoying asbestos work, excluded them from steelworking and construction, and barred their empowering path to firefighting and heavy industry.
