Real programmers are not anonymous

Name: James W. Hall 2013-01-22 2:25

As esr so eloquently puts it in How To Become A Hacker[1]:
The problem with screen names or handles deserves some amplification. Concealing your identity behind a handle is a juvenile and silly behavior characteristic of crackers, warez d00dz, and other lower life forms. Hackers don't do this; they're proud of what they do and want it associated with their real names. So if you have a handle, drop it. In the hacker culture it will only mark you as a loser.

So if you guys and girls want to get respect as programmers, you'd better use your real names from here on out.

You don't seriously think that
     a) this guys name is seriously James,
     b) the FBI couldn't call moot up at 9:00AM for an IP address, and have your name by lunch,
     c) that this is not a poor attempt at trolling,
do you?
