I wrote the original Homebrew formula for exa and remembered adding support for the Git-less install, so I was surprised to see it wasn't there anymore! Seems like it was removed i…

Note that this video is of SethBling pulling off the credits warp for the very first time, when the current setup for the warp was unknown. Here is a video of Seth performing the w…

It's amusing to watch repositories being added in real-time. I'm a fan of the Lucky (777) and Mark of the Beast (666) hash-related achievements.

UBC's introductory CS course (CPSC 110) uses HtDP/2e as its "textbook". Given the progress that the majority of students make throughout the term, I think it's quite successful in …

Awesome, thanks for updating Local Euler! It was unbelievably useful that there were already text-only versions of lots of the puzzles when I started putting together EulerPy. I'll…

Hmm, I'll have to keep this in mind when I get to adding problems like this. Time to convert GeoGebra images to ASCII art /s!
