   Accidentally typed "yes" in #xterm instead of !Emacs to revert buffer. #xterm was busy. Boy,did I get a lot of 'y's before I noticed later.

   I should've asked Roland #McGrath when I met him if he'd ever written proprietary software. I was too much in awe when I met him to ask much

   Interesting; I'd thought that tradition had died out. It's how #GNU community began: proprietary developers hacking on nights/weekends.

   "Fewer women get started in FLOSS": IMO answer's "unknown". Proprietary corporate hiring depts *do* have an easier time fixing that issue.

   @fontana, yes, I indeed pointed out that I had such profound experience & @hook said ∃ criteria not listed on that page that were secret.

   @cwebber, right. It's very hard for me to visualize which way character under point will move when I hit C-t, even if I "know" it's left.

   @duck1123,IMO,M-t is even harder to get right on first try;My only success is I once got a badly mistyped sentence in order w/ just 2 M-t's.

   I've just enough mild dyslexia that !Emacs' M-t & C-t remain useless. I try them, but I can never predict which way letters/words'll move.

    @fontana which part do you find interesting? That I nearly made life choice to get PhD in #NLP or that I now find natural language annoying?

    @jordigh, I wasn't against putting story out there. It's funny;problem is most people were confused b/c they don't understand GPL compliance

    @lxoliva, Extremely insightful. I think you're right. Sad thing is, it's one of those hypotheses that can't be tested w/out alt. universes.
