Btw, I did see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42770654 and I appreciated what you wrote there. It sucks to ban an account right after they posted something like that. But banning is based on bad deeds, not good ones (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26549792).

If you want to commit to following HN's rules in the future and using the site in the intended spirit, I'd be happy to unban you.
