Oh my!
This is hilarious:
Developer gets shadowbanned by Hacker News and asks for a real IP ban instead
Sean Conner discovered he's been shadowbanned from Hacker News
and would rather just be banned at the IP level if they don't want
him there. SEAN'S BLOG POST | HACKER NEWS DISCUSSION
Unsupervised Learning NO. 495
I can see how the author might get that from if they only read the headline on Hacker News,
but
(to his credit)
he spelled both my first name and last name correct,
so he must have clicked through to my post
(where my name shows up at the bottom of the page)
but not read the actual post.
Wow!
But given the author writes about AI,

You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
