I was being a little factitious, though honestly I don't know what a tibetan monk does day to day. I had an uncle who was a Trappist monk a bunch of years ago, but that's a different thing. I certainly didn't have a bunch of illicit sex in my mental image of them.

We were restricted even on some proprietary software (especially if it was from a foreign owned company), but you'd be surprised how much scrutiny some of the major packages have had.

A lot of government stuff requires that they have complete provenance of all code in the system. When you have people contributing to it from different places - potentially different countries - they get nervous about it.

Silly me

Or become a monk, have a bunch of sex, and pay off the occasional blackmail out of the donation funds. I mean, it seems like monks have a great life except for the celibacy thing, so if you take that off the table, maybe it's not a bad deal.

I've never thought so. I mean, I guess it's hard to quantify, but that's different from being ambiguous. If someone asked you, "Who in your high school class did people make fun of the most," you might know right away who it would be, or there might be multiple contenders. Other people in your class might have different opinions, but that doesn't mean you all don't know what the question is, just that it's hard to measure.

Made fun of

I can smell this picture

Where I worked, many of the contacts specifically said we could not use open source software, so no, it is not always available.

When I was a kin in the 70s, we had an exchange student from a little town in Sonora Mexico stay with us. His english wasn't great (though much better than my spanish), but he had this really strange accent. It turned out that he loved old hollywood gangster movies, so he was talking like Edward G Robinson, but with a thick spanish accent over the top.

Oh, that's a little better. I live in California, where small earthquakes aren't uncommon, so not something that looks okay to me, but better than just propped up on the edge.

Good man
