      I think the point of this post is how they are all doing stereotypically nerdy things, and then they are into Twitter

        >field stereotypically composed of argumentative assholes
        >members congregate amongst argumentative assholes

        This is as surprising as finding my old human sexuality professor on tumblr. I mean, I haven’t, but I wouldn’t be surprised.

          Another unfortunate fact is that there are a lot of right wing people in IT. That’s something I’ve learned in national conferences. I always hang out in places like this so I had no idea how bad it was, but at least 50% of the people I’ve met at IT conferences were right leaning. There’s only 1 on my team. 2 if you count the libertarian.

      Yes we are nerds but we must have decorum.

      Plus if you’re managing any real infra at all you’ll run out of names if you’re using Star Wars, even the extended canon.

      Really: They’re cute until you’re on a screenshare with an angry customer and you’re trying to restore the wookie database to the ewok database. Then it’s way less cute.
