Haha, blushing in awkward uncertainty that I've failed to detect irony …? (Is this HN, right?) But even if, thanks anyway! I'm glad I could vent the lore I've spent gathering in unhealthy amount of unproductive research; I cannot imagine better place to finally bury that than deep in super-tangential HN discussion…

No no, dead earnest. I'm a big believer in honest compliments, where merited.

Please start writing a blog, if you don't already. If I could compose a blog roll of people writing fun CS histories, I would replace my HN bookmark with it.
