Somewhat off-topic, but this reminds me of an old bit about Niklaus Wirth[0][1]:
Whereas Europeans generally pronounce his name the right way ('Nick-louse
Veert'), Americans invariably mangle it into 'Nickel's Worth.' This is to say
that Europeans call him by name, but Americans call him by value.
>Did you mean to post this elsewhere? This is really non sequitur.
No. I thought of it because Russia fined Google 2*10^36 Rubles. While it falls far short of a Googol (10^100), it's still a ridiculously large number and, as such, it made me think of that anecdote about Niklaus Wirth.
As in: Russia calls Google by value rather than by name. ha ha ha.
[1] In looking this up, I discovered that Wirth passed away on 1 January this year. You will be missed, sir!
Edit: Fixed typo.
