The In Hindsight thread
Storel:
I find it interesting that early on, when Marten and Faye needed to remove Pintsize's laser from his chassis and delete the device drivers for it, Dora was the computer-knowledgeable person they went to for help. She hasn't done anything very technical ever since, and nowadays Marigold would probably be the one they'd ask for that sort of help.
blt:
Especially since Marigold nerd-owned her for having a shitty company website.
Storel:
That's right, she did! I'd forgotten that.
Well, even nerds aren't all good at the same things. Someone who understands how to find and remove the device driver for an... unusual device doesn't necessarily have the visual design sensibility to create a good-looking web site, and vice versa.
blt:
Bumping this again; how did May not have a name until Dale gave her one? Did she have an old one and abandoned it with her old life? Or are AI like the pixies from Gunnerkrigg Court?
TinPenguin:
Well, it seems Bubbles also didn't have a name before her squad gave it to her. May's previous existence as a bank computer was non-corporeal and probably didn't need more identification than a serial number. When she got out of jail and sought out Dale's help, that was the only name he knew her by and the one it made sense to continue using.
You didn't have a name either until an emotionally-bonded human gave you one.
