Sure. We have this for countries, like "example.co.uk", so I made "name" be a country and it...just works (maybe).
You only get a first name and a last name and a .name though. You can't be robert.louis.stevenson.name - just louis.stevenson.name.
(Incidentally, this was a Claude suggestion. The change only took a couple minutes but figuring out what mechanism in the code could do this would have taken me a lot longer.)
While we have you here - I've seen this discussion multiple times - does @dang "do" anything to get your attention, or did you just happen to see it because you were scanning the comments manually, and therefore email is better for letting you know something?
Can you please transmute your frustration into thoughtful, interesting comments, rather than venting it into putdowns of others?
Since you're posting here, you're as much "the hackernews community" as the rest of us.
The intention of the site is clear: curious, substantive conversation (https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html). We know better than anyone how easy it is to get derailed from this, but really the best thing to do is to practice thoughtful conversation even when others are not.
