I think I heard Xavier say something about teamwork between Nix and guix, which would be good because I don't think we need $2^n$ incompatible package managers. I looked up NixOS, expecting to see a lot of cartoons. Where did those cartoons come from and are they "official"? > And what are the feelings of those who are remote?

The first half-hour or so was near intolerable, but then the noise stopped and the camera stopped bouncing and all was good. -- Keith

I just got a wad of messages from last week. Don't know what happened, but it looks like not my fault. MX1.WPI.EDU takes seven days to deliver a message to itself. Why exactly seven days? (plus one second) Not my problem, I'm still thinking about Knuth Vol 4B, problem 121, and how to prove the Myhill-Nerode theorem in a monoidal closed category. This a test. Is it still April? My calendar says May, but it's 2009. I save paper by using old caledars (there's always a month that starts on the same day of the week). -- Keith

Not again! You have now apologized four or five times, but just two of those times included the date. Once Wednesday, once Thursday. I was not being sarcastic; I wanted to know the answer. Since you quoted James, who said Thursday, and did not correct that, I'm going with Thursday. If that's wrong, sorry I will miss it.
