00:20 | <akirose> | you can thank Jory, Boaz Sender, and to a far lesser but more annoying extent, me for that. |
00:20 | <rkirsling> | 👏 |
18:39 | <leobalter> | akirose: that might be a bit unknown but I remember that Valerie Young was one of the first that raised the annoying of the honorifics |
18:41 | <leobalter> | at least in a discussion at Bocoup that should have been one of the initial engagements from Jory w/ Istvan to change that |
18:43 | <leobalter> | I've been really fortunate to work with Valerie, she's one of the most skilled engineers I've worked with |
19:02 | <akirose> | she's amazing |
19:02 | <akirose> | i tried to convince her to move to San Diego |
19:12 | <rkirsling> | she's the one who first invited me here too :D |
20:48 | <akirose> | my very first meeting, i was talking to ljharb on irc and at some point i said something to the effect of "i'm the one with blue hair". i then looked up and realized that all three women (which, 😭) in the room had varying shades of blue hair |
20:49 | <akirose> | (it was me, Valerie, & Maggie) |
20:52 | <ljharb> | lol, i remember that |
20:52 | <ljharb> | but i think i already knew valerie and maggie at that time, so it was sufficient info |
20:59 | <leobalter> | The blue hair was a standard in a standards meeting. Not bad |
