@WSJ@bgzimmer I think@fakedansavage coined the term (or made it popular) and the it got hijacked by silicon valley? http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2012/01/31/sl-letter-of-the-day-a-unicorn-offers-advice-to-couples-hunting-unicorns … -
@ShaxpirHQ I think@fakedansavage popularized polyamorous "unicorn" in 2012, after a few years of circulation. Def earlier than tech use. -
@bgzimmer Exactly! That's how it entered the lexicon, via the techies who listen to@fakedansavage podcast. Same connotation, diff context. -
@ShaxpirHQ@fakedansavage Well, hard to know exactly how it traveled. The "unicorn" metaphor could have occurred to people independently. -
@bgzimmer@ShaxpirHQ There are tech-based uses going back to at least 2010, as well: http://www.clientcide.com/deep-thoughts/why-its-a-good-idea-to-be-a-javascript-developer-and-what-it-takes-to-be-one/ …
