On: Nimrod is being renamed to Nim

[adrusi]

Nimrod was a character in the story of the tower of babel, which explains the diversity of languages in the old testament. Hence its relation to programming languages.

[andrewflnr → adrusi]

Ah, no. Nimrod had nothing to do with Babel.

[adrusi → andrewflnr]

OK, maybe not, but according to wikipedia's page on him:

> Extra-biblical traditions associating him with the Tower of Babel led to his reputation as a king who was rebellious against God.
