He/him
That name and marketing turned it into a billion dollar company selling water with hints of flavor.

A metal head runs the company hence the branding, looked into them a bit back when their Arnold Palmer drink name led to a cease and desist last year.

Sega’s 90s marketing is still bouncing around my head randomly even though I was an NES household.

Besides we all know Halo is a Mac game 😂

A project earlier this year did help simplify some other game launch workflows while meeting the demands of our dev environment and flexibility requirements. All built off past troubleshooting experiences that helped guide the project when time allowed for those improvements.

As some who was burned badly from a lead in the past who thought that, No. It was a disaster when they tried to force C++ as the CI language in a past project.

“Yes, let’s force a compile first before doing anything as simple as moving a file” did not lead to efficient and easy to maintain builds.
