Is this the same author that made the talk about PAM recently? I really like his articles.



Thanks!

I'm not a guy, I'd prefer if you used they to refer to me, but she works too.

The PAM one was a really fun talk to write. I need to finish that postmortem on how that talk went wrong.


I'm confused about the they pronoun, isn't it plural? This pronoun thing doesn't exist in my native language.


See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singular_they for more information. It's been around since the 1300's but it's only gone into the mainstream as someone to refer to direct people fairly recently.


Thank you.
