   If my project becomes a !GNU project, does that mean that money I spend on it becomes tax-deductible?

   Listening to an `all about vegan #food' interview on the local #NPR station; such contortions to talk about umami without saying "MSG"....

   @nordpirat, that's not what the "!hacks" group is for. Would you please #knock-that-shit-off? If we want to see this, we'll subscribe to one of the other zillion groups to which you're crossposting ;)

   @arnebab, I just meant the whole phrase as a not-necessarily-literal English quotation (like: `foo'); the spaces inside the quote-marks were just to ensure StatusNet saw the hashtags correctly. Not sure where I got the style, but cf. #hackish "scare quotes": http://www.catb.org/jargon/html/writing-style.html

   @arnebab, "cf." is a literary abbreviation for "compare" or "see also": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cf.

    Reading #Norvig's `lisp in Python' impl—is there some mandate to misparse #lisp lists into #Python lists? http://norvig.com/lispy.html

    The only recorded case where giving something a longer name actually made it go away was `your name's not "Bob", it's "Rumpelstilzchen"!'

    I once took over a C project from someone who had ♯define'd words like "BEGIN", "THEN", and "END" to use instead of various parens—like she was a medieval theologian, asserting control by naming things. I gathered that she was an #Ada or somesuch programmer who thought she was `making C have less parens'. It's usually C programmers who make the `Lots of Irritating Silly Parentheses' crack, though—isn't it?

    @arnebab, cf. ` #s-expressions vs. #XML '.

    Frankly, I find it a lot easier to determine if regular #parens are balanced than to check if my begin/then/do/esac/fi/end tags are balanced (and the #astute-reader will notice that I left that begin…end sequence unbalanced, but correctly balanced this parenthetical)

    #Ruby & #bash spelling some of their #parens "begin", "then", "do", "in", "esac", "end", and "fi" doesn't make them those parens not exist.

    I don't know of many languages that have fewer parentheses than #lisp; they mostly just have *more types of parens* and placement-rules.

    What's the noun form of "ambient"? Apparently it's "circumfusion": http://status.hackerposse.com/url/2145 #words

    You don't actually *want* !gnus to touch your #Maildir directly—you want it to go through a lightweight local #IMAP server. Really.
