Congratulations! The ceremony has some good talks and can be attended remotely with subtitles in English (!). Warmly recommended!
@humanetech: Indeed, we are back in the air. Obviously, Joost has not just talent for this kind of thing, but also a professional pen as an accredited journalist. So he will be missed.
@NGIZero That's my school 😱 Congrats to him!
@idlestate @NGIZero Personally I still see it as a shortened version of the full name, but yeah I believe they do tend to brand it as a standalone meaning nowadays.
But I'm old fashioned, I still prefer calling the IT department the "ICA" rather than it's new "AIM" name 💁
@NGIZero congratulations! And doubly so, as it is good to see the #NGI0 account being active again, after Joost's departure. Welcome to fediverse ;)
