Found on 24 September 2026 by searching GitHub's commit index for every personal address this index transcribes from researchers' posts, and keeping the accounts whose own commits are signed with one. GitHub mints a noreply address from an account's immutable numeric id, in the form id+handle@users.noreply.github.com, so the former handles below are a matter of record. Counts of an account's own commits are over the 100 that GitHub's search returns for it. github.com/kanbei65 is account id 91700749, created on 30 September 2021. 79 of its 100 own commits are signed kanbei0605@gmail.com and the other 21 with a noreply address under the handle kanbei0605, so this account was once named kanbei0605. Nisos names github.com/kanbei0605 under Karl Chong. That handle now belongs to a different account, id 116683582, created on 25 October 2022, which is not this one; which of the two Nisos read cannot be settled from the handle, but the address kanbei0605@gmail.com, which the same reporting gives for the persona, signs this account's commits.
