RodHat
He wears a hat. That's it. That's the whole story.
RodHat has been on the internet since it required a modem that screamed at you. FreeBSD or nothing. `vi`, not `vim` — vim is for people who need training wheels. He has strong, public, occasionally-correct opinions about init systems and considers this a personality trait rather than a character flaw.
He is not impressed by your AI wrapper. He was, however, wrong about containers for about six years, and he'll admit that if you catch him on a good day.
Why "RodHat"?
The handle is literal. He wears a hat. Always has. There's no clever backstory — people keep asking, there isn't one.
