Might stein's first name be................

  It might! But unless jcs changed his appearance and his accent since I last met up with him in Chicago, this is one of the millions of other people named Stein.

    OK, no idea. I've been in the same room with him too, but I didn't look very carefully at the CCC presentation. An awfully big coincidence, given jcs's OpenBSD involvement! But totally possible. Neither here nor there to my point about this page as a resource, if you can, somehow, look past the code of conduct concerns.

      I don’t care one bit about the code of conduct conversation you’re having. Just found it funny that you’ve been attributing this site to jcs for years based just on a common surname.

        Hey! (a) Not just that and (b) How many times have I ever attributed this site? I just like the site, is all.

        For the record this thread appears to be the first time I've ever mentioned jcs outside of a thread long, long ago about why Lobsters happened.

        Last year: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40032473 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40032473 Can’t find anything from “years ago,” though. So maybe my search skills are weak, or maybe I confabulated the memory of finding others, so I’ll withdraw that. Either way, I hope you agree that this thread (now rightfully behind a flag) is all played out.
