There have always been a handful of engineers who come to every TGIF. They sit in the front row and ask long, rambling questions. Every week.[…] One of these questioners was a slight, brown-haired man. He had a gentle mien and always seemed to ask his questions in the form of a narrative. […] The questions were sometimes wacky, sometimes prophetic. He asked about two-factor authentication years before it was offered. Then one day, after a decade, he retired. […] It turns out he’d been one of our very early Googlers1.
