Still top of the list for me is Olin Shivers' 1994 acknowledgements to his scsh project: >Who should I thank? My so-called ``colleagues,'' who laugh at me behind my back, all the while becoming famous on my work? My…
>looks like many "BBC Four Classic Documentaries Collection" programs of the last century get the same treatment Fair enough, it may be that the warning is just a generic one slapped on all their old repeats, but I do…
Seeing that this discussion is still going on (I'm impressed!) I shall provide an example which I believe fits the bill. Around the time you first asked the question I learnt that the BBC are currently re-airing a…
>Long, grammatically perfect comments that sound hollow and a bit lengthy It's worse than I thought. They've already managed to mimick the median HN user perfectly!
I was just working on a comment featuring the word oikophilic when I had to go to bed, so it's nice to see that one managed to get written anyway.
>for more detail: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... Oh, I see. We actually discussed Pound about four years ago - just a little back and forth about the ABC of Reading:…

Don't think Alex Lee Moyer had a thing to do with the Red Pill.

Indeed it should be spoken aloud (or at least 'aloud in your head'). But if it should be spoken as if it were prose, why do you think he took all the trouble to put it in to verse?
There's quite a lot of work on this kind of thing; any edition of Shakespeare with good notes will alert you where a line resembles something 'proverbial'. One thing you notice is that although he often alludes to…

Scheme feels really verbose to me. I get that it's 'minimal' and 'elegant' and everything, but then why are all the identifiers so long? I feel like I have to do a lot of typing to get anything done. Maybe it's better…
>It was missing the simple, elegant sexp syntax I dearly love In what sense does Janet not have sexp syntax? Seems plenty sexpy to me. Purists seem to say it's not a lisp because its underlying data structure is not…
I heard at least part of this version of the story a few years ago from someone who was in the British music industry at the time. I seem to recall getting the impression that he was relaying what he'd heard at the…
