I have seen and read from @dang often throughout my many years of journey with HN, but never got to know who really is @dang.

Is their true identity a secret? If not, can someone please point me out to their real name. I am just curious about their profile and would like to have a look at their LinkedIn or Twitter if they are on there.

I do not wish to pry open anyone's anonymity and so if their identity is a secret, I am fine with that. I honestly just want to have a look at their journey which sometimes LinkedIn / Twitter / GitHub / individual blogs provide.

I am old! "Axa" is seriously everything that is wrong with the way newer generations are using the language with English alphabets! I still cannot believe people do this.

I have personally set a standard or a set of rules for writing Hindi using English alphabets myself and I have seen my friends follow the same. We do not use such shortcuts/shortforms.

Hell, even "Acha" is not the correct way. It must be "Achha" (double Hs).

Speak Hindi all day, but cannot guess a single letter in a 100 tries!

Shows how much this language's usage in writing and reading has declined.

Loved the concept, but there's too much white-space, lot's of screen real-estate lost.

On my MacBook Pro 16-inches, I can see 12 stories on HS while on HN, I can see 27 at one go.

I am not saying the UI needs to be as dense as it is on `news.ycombinator.com` but it can be much more denser than what it is right now.

Also, +1 for dark mode, although, DarkReader works quite well for now!

The only editor I find on the Windows servers we have at work is npp and the white theme made it very difficult for me to work. I am gonna grab a portable copy of this and take with me on any server now!

Something seems off, am getting a "403 - Forbidden" while visiting the page.

Anybody else get it too or am I the only one?

This is while on Firefox Developer Edition on a Windows 10 PC.

* BMC Remedy (Oh my god. Utterly disgusting experience.)

* Atlassian JIRA (never really got the hang of it. Overcomplicated.)

* Workday (the web app is sloooooow.)

* MRemoteNG (The best SSH client on Windows. Also the worst. Alt + Tab navigation annoys me to hell!)

* iTunes on Windows (Why is it like the way it is even in 2020!?)

How much do you spend on the remote server on a monthly basis? Also, what's the hardware you use for the home server?
