Only here b/c it has come to my attention that some of y'all didn't know that you NOT have to carry on without the ESTC. We stood up a temporary ESTC site in mid-November and thousands of people have been using it nearly every day since. @print_and_prob estc.printprobability.org/

Others have pointed this out, but this renaming is stepping on the exact same rake that got him ousted by PayPal. Wrote about this in my book

This is not sad, this is a warning. A company did everything (mostly) right: created a vitally useful free service, worked hard to keep it healthy, shared data for research. Then another company swooped the data and made it compete against itself.

It is bittersweet to have to leave the fabulous @MiltonSymposium before it’s over but at least I got a chance to take my selfie (#norfie?) with Northrop Frye
