Slightly off topic, but it's interesting to see the same phrase "the long now" pop up in different contexts independently and mean very different things:

Both are pretty obscure references for now, but I can easily imagine a world where they both become widely known in separate groups. Like the word "legacy" has hilariously different connotations for software engineers as compared to _everyone else_
