There's a user on Reddit with the handle snoyjerk. Since there has been some confusion recently, I'd like to set the record straight:

  • I am not snoyjerk

  • I don't know who snoyjerk is

  • I have never used "sock puppet" accounts to discuss Haskell or other programming topics.

    • I have in the past used alternative accounts to discuss other interests, like weight lifting, but have since stopped to avoid any possible confusion.
  • Unless I'm overlooking something, all of my social media accounts are under the name snoyberg.

    • I obviously can't guarantee that every snoyberg out there is me, there are simply too many social media sites.
    • I also have access to some other social media accounts. For example, I'm pretty sure I have the credentials for FP Complete's Twitter account. But I'd imagine that's pretty obviously not intended to obfuscate my identity.

In the past, I've jokingly/sarcastically had some banter with snoyjerk, which unfortunately gave the impression—or even stated— that it was, in fact, my account. I can't blame anyone but myself for that. I apologize for the confusion, and hope this sets the record straight.

Thanks to simonmic, duplode, and and gelisam for helping clarify this in yesterday's Reddit thread.
