My point is that the name isn't benign. And my post was deliberately somewhat hyperbolic. I actually have read a bit about Cockroach, and if I saw a growing ecosystem that seemed relevant to my work, I would pursue it more. But as othe

I feel similarly about being a black guy in the tech industry. It is always the deliberate efforts to "reach out" to minorities that make me feel the most uncomfortable and unwelcome. I have given talks on AWS, Cassandra, Python,

I'm black and I loved PHC. It and Car Talk were the only things that made me seriously consider donating to NPR. It was the only show I would make an effort to catch on Saturdays when I had to make long drives back and forth from NYC.
