so you took my original username

From 2014-03-29, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7494093:

> A couple of personal points that I may as well insert here. The account I'm now using, dang, was used briefly in 2010 by someone who didn't leave an email address. I feel bad for not being able to ask them if they still want it, so I'm considering this an indefinite loan. If you're the original owner, please email me and I'll give it back to you. The reason I want the name dang is that (a) it's a version of my real name and (b) it's something you say when you make a mistake.

You're probably too late.

> You're probably too late.

From the 2014 thread, it was a (four years and) three months offer:

“I was thinking that because it's just software, we could restore the old account to its exact prior state. But the attention that accrues to a moderator account would make that impossible. So I guess I'll keep the offer open for three months, after which we can make some other arrangement.”

Like a decade too late it seems
