I think your company is PSE, correct?

[subroutine]

Indeed it is!

I'm fine with our name being mentioned. I didn't include it above because our website is trash, which doesn't bode well for a company with professional graphics designers and human factors engineers on staff haha.

I think if they wanted to name the company they would have done so in the comment

[renewiltord]

I, for one, am glad it was mentioned. There's nothing secret about it and it saves me some trouble. Thanks for taking one for the team, Guy who figured it out

[k8sToGo]

Same here. With all the detail provided it’s not hard to figure out the company.

Btw. You can vouch for comments that are marked dead to revive them.

There have been only 5 "former Captain of the USS Zumwalt". That is a very small subset of humans. There have been more humans walking on the moon than former Captains of the USS Zumwalt.

Their names are a matter of public record and one can answer which works as a CEO with 5 simple google searches.

If they didn't want to name the company they shouldn't have identified it willingly and precisely.

Making clear allusions to the company without directly naming it allows anybody in this conversation who cares to figure it out easily, but doesn't get this discussion automatically indexed with that company's name. Naming the company in a response is rude and unnecessary.

[jen729w]

Disagree. I sometimes have cause to comment here and obliquely reference my own project, without its name.

Because its name isn’t important to the context, and mentioning it seems gauche; I don’t want to ‘make the conversation about me’.

It’s not because I really don’t want anyone here to know about it: if that was the case, I would have kept my trap shut in the first place.

[withinboredom]

I don't want to know the company's name, but it's interesting to know the history of this event and how it came about.

If people want to do sleuthing, have fun.

Or at least frame it in a more passive tone like "would you be comfortable disclaiming the name of the company where you work?"
