<p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/chetan-rogbeer-03a65b68/">Mr. Rogbeer</a>
|
||
was my colleague in
|
||
<a href="https://smart.mit.edu/about-smart/about-smart">a organisation</a> where
|
||
I worked on a couple of
|
||
projects that involved programming.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>It was around that time that I registered myself on <a href="http://tilde.town">tilde.town</a>,
|
||
and I was stumped for a username; I looked up from my laptop and saw his name-tag
|
||
on display near his desk; I thought that was an interesting name.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>No, I did not get his permission to snatch his surname (on tilde.town).</p>

<ul>
|
||
<li>Mr. Rogbeer says he is from Mauritius</li>
|
||
<li>As of 8th October 2018, I have only met two people who said they were from
|
||
Mauritius</li>
|
||
<li>The language Creole is spoken in Mauritius, so I’m told.</li>
|
||
<li>The other person from Mauritius (that is, not Mr. Rogbeer) looked like
|
||
she was from East Asia. If I am not mistaken, she told me that Mauritians don’t
|
||
have any one look; there are a variety of ethnicities in Mauritius: she belongs
|
||
to a minority there.</li>
