shampine··on Notes on the Celebrity Data Theft
What about just using a basic cipher for your questions? It is what I do. So if the question is "What was your first car?"

Answer could be: Ford

Instead it is Enqc or droF or Gpse

shampine··on Who Made That Paintball?
Still about the same $40-$80 for 2000. When we would order palettes, 2001-2006, we would do it because it would bring our cost down to about $20/case. It was all practice paint so it had some obvious defects and wasn't anything we could use in tournaments.
shampine··on Who Made That Paintball?
As someone who also played competitively, I can agree it was the money that drove everyone from the game. Unlike all my other hobbies growing up that I grew out of, this became a financial choice without question. Ordering a palette of paint because our local practice field would let us bring 1-1 was a common occurrence.
shampine··on Ask HN: I was hired and unhired in 2 weeks, for no reason
I had an offer withdrawn the day before I was supposed to get on a plane to move myself cross country. I had quit my job, broken my lease, etc.

The company paid me a 6 week severance, even though I never worked a minute for them, just to compensate me for what I had given up.
