It’s not a HN thread about a controversial new MSFT feature without some complaining about how nerds running Android are discriminated against in the dating market:
I think you are missing the first half the modern male reproductive lifecycle. What you are saying increasingly applies to 30’s onward (when males are looking for long term family relationships) but for the 20 somethings many are looking for these shallow, vacuous women because they often can be convinced into meaningless sex. It’s a pretty sad state but it appears to be this way now.
Wowsers. I don’t think you’re supposed to say this out loud.
Yeah for the people not in the know this basic misogynistic red pill bullshit. Alpha fucks, beta bucks. (Which also has a secondary explanation (which also sucks)).
This green bubble/blue bubble thing is so exhausting. It’s like this is the first walled garden these whiny toddlers (and the DOJ) have ever encountered. Not using gmail for personal email hurts me both socially and professionally, & has probably kept me out of the running for jobs. Back when people used Facebook, there were social events I wasn’t invited to because I wasn’t on Facebook. None is this is new, and it predates computers. (Ask a teetotaler or sober person about their dating opportunities, why don’t you?)
I’ve had interviewers send me google docs locked to a google account, sent to my personal email which they probably assume is a redirect to Gmail in the background. And then when I write back and say, hi, thanks, could you share this a way that I don’t need a google account, they get extremely skeptical. These days I have a stub Google account I keep around specifically for places that are going to force me to use Google, but even then I have to write back and say “could you provide access to this email address and not that one“, and again, the interviewers get weird and sometimes don’t write back.

Wait, I’m sorry, what? Can you elaborate on this?
