The species "Notch"
A Notch is currently the only known Minecraft programmer. A hybrid of awesome people, beard growers, and gamers who programmed the wide expanses of Infdev from the late twentieth to the early twenty-first century, these Minermen used their famed keyboards to travel as far east as Java and the Flash in king.com, and as far west as C++, Lua, and HTML. This period of Notch expansion – known as the "Notch Age" – forms a major part of the modern history of Minecraftia, Imageboardia, Indiea and the rest of the Internet in general.
