"in a simple way" proceeds to write a 300 page epic


I would call a 300 page epic simple.

300 pages on explaining things X. I wouldn't say that's bad. Could always be longer.


At least I was able to keep it under 300 pages.

Omg I literally stumbled upon the unix haters handbook off an old JWZ blog last night and was reading it till 2 in the morning. Thank you!


... somehow this is the first time I've realized that you contributed to the Unix Haters Handbook.

(And I've read it in its entirety at least twice!)


I also aspect a 1000 Word article and stopped reading after the TOC.
