Female programmer seeks boyfriend on coding website

24 October 2012

Most people looking for love try obvious places like bars, coffee shops, and the queue at the Pick ‘N Pay boozer, but one lonely lady programmer in Japan is trying her luck on social coding website, GitHub.

Noriko Higashi is a 30-something living and working in Tokyo, but “having spent one too many years not interacting with the opposite sex, I began to feel like I would never find a partner, and so it is with a sense of urgency that I’ve decided to invite people to contact me here”.

Apparently she’s never heard of regular online dating or something. Or bars, coffee shops, and liquor store queues, for that matter.

Being the sort of person who is accustomed to writing lines of instructions to get anything done, her ad has a long list of partner preferences, including:

  • Someone who writes beautiful code–it makes me cry tears of joy (Required)
  • Someone who maintains their own server (Required, Linux preferred)
  • Someone who will let me help them maintain their own server (Required)
  • Someone with public repos on Github (Required)

I’ll bet she totally wants to meet up for some Java, C your Python, and keep things BASIC, amirite. AMIRITE?! Okay, I’ll stop.
