My partner programmed me a birthday card, so the programming flirt is real.

A lot of projects are named after spouses and family lol

Nah, a whole project

Okay but my partner does this with things like taking my naming suggestions for blueprints in factory games. Then he'd message me about his harambe units. 10/10 very cute

I use friends and family as sample data for unit/integration tests.

At a previous job, I tested an automated email system by scheduling fake events for various US presidents. I've long left that position, but I never cleaned up the test data. Every month I still get a reminder for Nixon's upcoming reservation at the Watergate Hotel.

So, anyone here want to name a git branch after me? 😊

The GNU kernel was not originally supposed to be called the Hurd. Its original name was Alix—named after the woman who was my sweetheart at the time. She, a Unix system administrator, had pointed out how her name would fit a common naming pattern for Unix system versions; as a joke, she told her friends, “Someone should name a kernel after me.” I said nothing, but decided to surprise her with a kernel named Alix.
