       @johnquiggin Curious about the period where an economics approach that destroyed the national manufacturing sector was "credible". When was that? Before the manufacturing sector crashed as predicted in the 1850s and earlier by economists of the American School or after? And it's weird to see classical 19th century "liberalism" discussed as a new ideology in the 20th century.

       @tzimmer_history I am not sure if they even believe it - because they certainly believe and celebrate that they are the ones with the guns and cop sympathizers - just as the Confederates believed before the Civil War that the North was outmatched.

       @robpike State of the industry. I spent a year on the C ISO committee. One debate went like this:Me: This feature you propose makes the language more complex and unintuitive.Other:  My employer uses it and C++ already has it.Me: So use C++Other: I don't like C++, it has too many features.Result: feature added.

       @webmink Or it may be another company that found there were too many big corporate freeloaders and too few customers - that the open source model does not work except in very specific circumstances and with brilliant marketing.

       The best joke about academic publishing is, of course, from a physicist who calculated the time at which Physical Review Letters would grow in volume faster than the speed of light, and noted that relativity would not be violated because no information is carried. @emilymbender
