1. Joined HN because I was looking for an appropriate forum to discuss my coding project I'm doing during chroma virus lockdown. Show HN looks to an outsider like a place to discuss side projects.

2. Shouldn't have joined HN because it's actually an inhospitable notoriety contest which exists to promote the YC company position that startups can somehow make money through coding.

Striving to get promoted to management. The result has been minor salary gains, while my soul orbits a black hole.
