I've been lurking for a few weeks, and I'm a huge fan of what you guys have done here.

I work as a "software engineer" (quotes because someone who taught himself Python can only be called an engineer in a low-interest rate, fiat-fueled tech bubble) but unfortunately, it's very rare for me to be excited by anything in the tech world. I spent my early adulthood watching the cool internet of the 90s devolve into an internet dominated by creepy ads and hostile social media, so yeah, I'm a techno-skeptic. But, if there's a model for making the internet cool and useful again, I'd say SN is it.
