I will never ever forget this color name and the story behind it for the rest of my life.
- layer8 2y agoI had read about it in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34186932 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34186932 (or some other earlier HN submission) and had since forgotten it. I wouldn’t be surprised to forget about it again.
- saagarjha 2y agoIt would be nicer if you could forget to be inconsiderate next time.
- layer8 2y agoI only meant to point out that things might not go as expected, despite how emotionally impactful it might seem in the moment.
- saagarjha 2y agoYes. Similarly, I’m pointing out that despite your expectations, your comment comes off as you being a jerk.
- 946789987649 2y agoOf course people forget things, but as the other commenter mentioned, I think you are bringing unnecessary logic to what is an emotional subject and response. Which as they say, makes you come across as a jerk while bringing no value to the conversation.
- johnnyyyy 2y agoBut did you really forget it if you remember that you read this already? Did you really forgot why its called rebeccapurple?
- shahzaibmushtaq 2y agoNot a chance. It's not just about the color rebeccapurple but the emotional relation and deep connection between the CSS new logo, the story behind that particular color and how the CSS community merged them into one. And furthermore, I am a passionate logo designer and logo design critique.
