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 classic Wizard vs Bard debate.

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.
