OK, no idea. I've been in the same room with him too, but I didn't look very carefully at the CCC presentation. An awfully big coincidence, given jcs's OpenBSD involvement! But totally possible. Neither here nor there to my point about this page as a resource, if you can, somehow, look past the code of conduct concerns.



I don’t care one bit about the code of conduct conversation you’re having. Just found it funny that you’ve been attributing this site to jcs for years based just on a common surname.


Hey! (a) Not just that and (b) How many times have I ever attributed this site? I just like the site, is all.


> How many times have I ever attributed this site [to jcs]?

I don’t keep track of people’s HN comments—but I noticed one time some months back, and figured someone should point it out next time. :)

[edit: struck “found several”]


For the record this thread appears to be the first time I've ever mentioned jcs outside of a thread long, long ago about why Lobsters happened.


Last year:

Can’t find anything from “years ago,” though. So maybe my search skills are weak, or maybe I confabulated the memory of finding others, so I’ll withdraw that. Either way, I hope you agree that this thread (now rightfully behind a flag) is all played out.
