After 21 years the Shepherd 1.0 init system is released! The GNU Project
is one of the few things in the world that make George R.R Martin look
like a prolific author.

Heh, he's got a ton o' books.

In my trips to the local library, though, I see James Patterson's name in
a number of different aisles, including the science fiction (!!) aisle.

I used Scheme when working my way through the Wizard book, but have given
Guile a wide berth. At least they finally found a use for it.

particularly dead about a door-nail.  I might have been inclined, myself,
to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade.
But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands
shall not disturb it, or the Country's done for.  You will therefore permit
me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.
