However this is E.S.R. we are talking about so, aside from the possible issues with whether any of the cloud providers are compatible with his larger philsophical aims

ESR (Looks like Fortran to him) has "larger philosophical aims"?

who knows what other interesting ideas he might come up with given access to much more powerful personal computer hardware rather than having his creativity shackled by the limitations of his current systems.

Oh, I've been trolled, how silly of me.

I resemble that remark.

(It's a lot harder to change a SCCS based workflow into git than you would think).

Shouldn't that last line be 1st hater? And who else saw CVS and wondered why Eric would want to stamp out comma delimited files

Fuck, who wouldn't want to stamp out comma delimited files.

The fuckers usualy aren't even delimited with a comma!

And I thought the fact that Harry Potter has a longer WP entry than Prince Harry was ridiculous.

Well in Harry Potter's defense he is a much more important person as far as many are concerned.

As far as anyone sane is concerned.

Harry Potter is big business, employment for thousands.. Prince Harry is small time entertainment.

There is a simple free market solution to long queues: raise the price.

The first libertarian space colony is going to be a real blast.

Not enough money to pay for the air? Suck on it.

Ironically you're asking when we might revolt against our own Government when yours disarmed you long ago, removing your capability altogether.

Why do Americans think all Europeans are unarmed?

Gun ownership per 100 residents:

USA: 90
Switzerland: 45.7
Finland: 45.3
France: 31.2
Austria: 30.4
Germany: 30.3
Greece: 22.5
Belgium: 17.2 ...
England: 6.2

Gun ownership is lower in Europe, but not as low as some people think.

I'd go for that, and it would be somewhat "progressive" too...in that rich people tend to buy MUCH more expensive items, and more of them.

Untrue.

Taxes on consumption are regressive, not progressive -- the "poor" spend a greater part of their income than the rich.

Moving to taxes on consumption would just increase wealth inequality.

So, you think there are 50 infected people in the US now?

And you agree that the only way to control the outbreak is to kill and cremate the infected?

You think the AC is not overreacting?

Your quick web search is wrong.

The only International flights to and from Liberia are Brussels Air and Royal Air Maroc. Everything else is suspended.

And yet Medecins sans Frontiere who work in Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria are not infected with the Virus

Well, no.

So far it appears that 16 MSF workers have been contaminated, of whom 9 have died.
