I appreciate the minimalist HN aesthetic, but without some context I'm not willing to click a mystery link to "Tender Lovemaking dot com".

It's the personal blog for a well-known Rubyist (i.e., a person who programs in the Ruby programming language). Rubyists teld to be a bit more colorful than your typical software developer (in a good way... most of the time).

Don't worry! It's actually "Tenderlove Making," going by how the site header is constructed. Definitely a maker/hacker site, and not whatever you were thinking. Hope this allays your concern.

You should learn who the author is, then. Part of learning about our ecosystem.

What’s with the fear of tender lovemaking? Not your thing?

You get some context by clicking on the “(tenderlovemaking.com)” in parentheses after the title.

This made me laugh. I too, browse like corporate security is sitting at my desk.

Pretty incredible how much humans can be conditioned, isn’t it?

The site is safe. It has been a trademark of Aaron Patterson a core Ruby on Rails contributor for decades.

It's about OpenAI's RubyGems hack. Totally safe for work.

Firefox has got some kind of feature to take a peek at at a link by hovering or something... Now I understand the usecase.

… a feature which, at least for me, is rendered almost entirely useless by massive cookie banners that always cover the entire field of view of the hover. But, surprisingly, not in this specific case.

From an infosec/networking stand point, aren’t still actively loading the site? Whether it’s in a preview window or not?

Presumably the browser still has to fetch the page in that case, right? From a "surveilled net traffic" perspective, how is that different than clicking the link?

Based on the thumbnail I think it’s actually tenderlove making dot com, though I agree with your sentiment.
