to recurse is godly

"This is one place where the commercial world has things right. You're a great programmer? Brilliant. You can't interact with other human beings? Yeah, we've a ton of CV's from people who can...bye now. It's almost like Darwinism but in software terms."

CV's say what the employer wants to read, contains all the words to get through the filters to get to a first interview.

Free software is what it is - not commercial, not flashy, not trendy, not secret, succinct, stable, real, communal.

Why did people get drawn to work alongside Richard ? They could have gone to any of a number of free software groups. There are 18 maintainers who might be happier in another group.

GNU is RMS is GNU.

Ah, I can't do recursive the way Richard does.
