Dear Shan — happy 23rd birthday. You debug hard problems by day and still find energy to make the people around you laugh by night. May this new version of you ship everything you have been quietly working toward: the promotion, the adventures, the slow Sunday mornings. You are the rare kind of person who makes both code and life look elegant. Today, the only thing you need to compile is cake.
