CSS gets a new logo and it uses the color `rebeccapurple`

> The color was originally going to be called beccapurple, but Meyer asked that it instead be named rebeccapurple, as his daughter had wanted to be called Rebecca once she had turned six. She had said that Becca was a "baby name," and that once she had turned six, she wanted to be called Rebecca. As Eric Meyer put it, "She made it to six. For almost twelve hours, she was six. So Rebecca it is and must be."

Wasn't expecting tears over a colour

..in 2014 in honor of Eric Meyer's daughter, Rebecca, who passed away at the age of six on her birthday from brain cancer.

It is sad to see such a comment come from someone with such high karma and seniority. I hope that it is not reflective of the ethos of this community.

I feel we have way too little humanity in tech. With the advent of AI, that does not promise to improve.
