Do you (yes you, you personally) read the name as “Shhh, it just works” or “Shit just works”.

      I’m here because my first thought it was a funny reference to Todd Howard. And while I like your head canon, I hope @[email protected] never disclose it, so it stays unclear just for the lulz

      Yeah, let’s be honest. We saw the name, laughed, and said that’s the place for me!

    When I suggested the subdomain name, I was mostly being a smartass, but I was also referencing secure shell. I never even thought of it as shhh, it just works, that’s great.

      Yeah someone else pointed out shell and I’m kicking myself for missing it!

    “Shit just works”, but that’s just because I came here when others were overwhelmed, so…

    Tangentially it took me absolute years to start reading smh.com.au as “Sydney Morning Herald.com.au” and not “shaking my head.com.au.”

    Mainly because the Herald’s news always seems to radiate deep Florida-man energy.

    I thought this instance is about saying how IT folks do their job well, but saying it quietly?

      No, it’s about saying IT does nothing but work
