    As at least one nautically themed childrens’ book surely has it: C is for crab.

    Coming at programming sideways feels more like a Haskell or Prolog thing, though.

            I thought it was a cup of coffee? A hipster barista in 90’s Memphis style illustration would be most accurate I think.

            Damn, I went searching online for some examples and got nothing that was really from back then. Just shitloads of AI vaporware slop. Time to dig out my old design mags I guess.

              That would be the natural assumption, but Sun didn’t do it. I think there is a logo for books, but not one by Sun/Oracle.

            There are dozens of us! Millions of devices and dozens of us know about Duke!

            Fun fact, Duke is released to the public. I forget in what way exactly, but Oracle freed them (him? it?).
