Read it later. If you can't read it at work, you can read it on your phone or after work from another computer.

Also, the guidelines and FAQ are both easy to read, and shouldn't be blocked by any CMMC nonsense at your office if HN itself isn't blocked. This one is a useful guideline for people like you, whose shouting makes you seem like a crazy uncle sending emails from your AOL account:

> Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. Instead, put *asterisks* around it and it will get italicized.

"Read it later. If you can't read it at work, you can read it on your phone or after work from another computer."

Negative, as I have ZERO TIME when working with things involving security.

"Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. Instead, put asterisks around it and it will get italicized."

Yea, no. See your asterisks didn't italicize. I'm looking at your comment right now, with screencap in clipboard buffer if you need a pasted proof of this formatting not working - https://imgur.com/a/7TzQOKw - No italics there. Unless the > at the beginning indicates (stupidly) to ignore formatting rules placed after it, your comment has zero formatting outside of regular spacing.

But you see, I was already aware that function didn't work reliably. Which is why I will continue to use caps for emphasis as it's guaranteed to work.
