Is there really any need for the naughty-secretary "She uses MongoDB" image at the top of this blog post?

You're right, there's no need. But there was a reason why I put it there, point (2) on how people who know nothing about MongoDB shouldn't be posting to the lists.

  I've been trying to parse this and just kind of failing. Is the implication that of course a naughty secretary wouldn't know anything about MongoDB?

    I am used to people not connecting with Russian humor. She's actually well known porn star. UPDATE: I removed the pornographic infographic, I don't want to have a debate about it.

      And porn stars aren't capable of using MongoDB? Not sure why you deleted my comment btw - slightly over-aggressive moderation there? Your prerogative I guess. ETA: appreciate you sending me an e-mail.

      I am used to people no connecting with Russian humor. She's actually well known porn star. A bit of advice going forwards: this isn't a national-or-otherwise sense of humour issue. I have no doubt there are many people from many different countries that have a knowledge of famous porn stars. There'll also be lots who don't... and that's without getting in to the whole objectifying women debate ;-)

Honestly, I think it removes some of your post's effectiveness. Using a photo of a model with her blouse unbuttoned and writing SHE USES MONGODB over the top... I'm wondering if I'm missing something; are you being ironic and using using one inappropriate action to illustrate another? :)

    OK, OK, porn removed, too many people are now focusing on the porn instead of the topic, thanks for the comments.
