Yes, I based that on what you put in your bio:

    about:	I use this account for things I can't say
Ok, fair enough, you want to keep HN and your personal life separate. And you may be otherwise sincere (at least, you seem to be based on your posts), but that separation makes anything that you post hearsay unless you can back it up externally. You should probably take that into account when trying to bring things from your personal life over into HN.

So perhaps rather than continuing the same pattern of "Randi bad, because I say so", perhaps you can point out somewhere where she's currently failing? I also note that OAPI is more than just Randi, there are several people involved: http://onlineabuseprevention.org/



I was curious, so I clicked on the Twitter search link you posted. This conversation took place between between Randi and a developer (Johannes Meixner a.k.a. xmj):

  randi> xmj: kindly go fuck yourself.
  randi> step the fuck back.
  randi> jesus fuck, are you a gamergater?
  randi> you are going on twitter and starting shit, and you just brought freebsd into it
  randi> and now you're coming after me with bullshit on twitter that you won't even back up
  randi> go. fuck. yourself.
  randi> xmj: you're a fucking disservice to the project.
  randi> and to open source in general.
  randi> except you decided to get involved and talk shit to me and talk shit about code of condcuts
  randi> i wouldn't have even known who you were had you not decided to be a dumbshit.
  randi> you're giving the project a bad name
  randi> and you should take it out of your bio on twitter.
  randi> you grow up, you piece of shit.
  randi> jesus
  randi> another privileged dumbass
  randi> whatever, dude. i'm emailing the foundation about you. they have a big push right now to try to get more women into the project, and your kind of public bullshit is the perfect example of why there isn't.
  randi> go fuck yourself.
All I can say is, hopefully Randi learns something about her own behavior from the anti-abuse work she's undertaking.
