Hat colours

[Rick]

I didn't realise that Dick has a "Red Hat". That's pretty funny. :D

Do the other hat colours have any significance?

[Moandji Ezana]

Unrelated to hat colours, but I was kind of bummed we didn't get a singalong at Devoxx. Had been looking forward to that.

I think they were chosen at random. Joe probably grabbed the grey one
because it was the least geeky. I think they turned out to be pretty
good matches in the end.

speaking of which... I've been wondering these last days... did the JavaPosse guys do some kind of dance rehearsal or was it all improvisation ? :-)

(Many years ago) in the original Star Trek series, it was always the
unknown crew member in the red shirt who got shot first when they
beamed down to a planet. Does this mean Dick is the sacrificial
programmer when the Java Posse investigates new territories? Planet
Groovy, for instance.

actually - when we got the hats... I was at Apple (gray/black), Tor
was at Sun (blue), Carl was at Google (yellow), and Dick was at New
Energy (red). Then Dick went to Google (red still works well), I went
to Navigenics (still enough Apple cool-aide in my blood to stay gray/
black), then Dick went to Navigenics (red still works fine). Now Carl
is at Netflix, and probably Carl and Dick should swap colors because
Netflix is *very* red. I'm a free-lance user experience designer now,
so I'll stick with gray/black.

My $0.02.

Oooooh - or Tor and Carl will death-match for the red had, since Carl
is at Netflix and Tor will be at Oracle (presumably)...

I'll stay with black. :-)

I wonder if the wiggles have the same issues. I heard their colour
choices were down to who got to the skivvy shop the quickest.

Dude, just admit that you chose the ones from your favorite Mighty Morphin Power Ranger...

And then a dinosaur comes and forces you to swap the green skivvy for a
blue one. Such is life.

I love the fact that this discussion uses the correct spelling of
"colours"

:)

[Peter Becker]

It's funny how proud people of British heritage are of never having had
a spelling reform ;-)

Not only might they label a table as their American friends, they also
might post a letter at the shopping centre. No wonder I meet so many
people with spelling problems even in academia.
