This made me wonder about Boris Cherny's professional career pre-Claude Code, so I did a customary "Boris Cherny wiki" Google. I'm shocked to learn he doesn't have a Wikipedia page! Is this my Hacker News bias? He's a ubiquitous online topic and has had an outsized impact on the world over the last year, but maybe I don't understand Wikipedia's criteria for biographical articles. I have a conspiratorial suspicion that Wikipedia has a (well-earned) anti-LLM bias so AI topics are unrepresented there.

I think that's fairly standard for Wikipedia. Most tools have no page at all, and popular tools will typically have a small wiki with the author in black text. Then an author who writes multiple widely used tools may or may not get a page. Look at the wiki of someone prodigious like Bellard and even then it's just a rather sparse straightforward list of things he's done.

he wrote a book which i liked very much https://x.com/swyx/status/2019317444377211213
