Neat. Hey, OP, can you update my bio though? I used to be CTO of Cloudflare but I retired last March[1] and the new CTO is Dane Knecht (dknecht here). Now I'm just a hoopy frood who knows where his towel is.

Sorry about that! Thanks for the correction.

I've updated the blog post and the dataset.[0] The blog updates instantly, but the dataset needs a few minutes for my pipeline to re-run and push to the CDN.

Nothing to apologize for; knowing I'd retired wasn't required reading to participate in HN :-)

But thanks for the correction, and even more thanks for choosing me as your example!

That quote, together with the rest of our timeline, made me realize that we might just be getting to the point where the dolphins finally up and leave :)

You can submit a PR to update your bio here: https://github.com/mtlynch/hn-popularity-contest-data/blob/m... - there are 77 closed PRs for that repo already so it looks like it's a well managed path for updating that.

Thanks, but doesn't look like that'll update the box on the main page that reads:

"Who counts as a blogger?

I explain more in my methodology page, but it’s basically anyone who blogs as an individual rather than as part of a company or a team. As an example, John Graham-Cumming is the CTO of Cloudflare, so I count his personal blog but not his posts to the Cloudflare company blog."

Oh I see what you mean, yeah that needs fixing.

The towel section was my favorite part of the book growing up!
