GitHub is one of the most frustrating platforms to try to read a pdf on. Would anyone mind posting a direct link? It’s basically impossible to get it to show on my iPad, and I forget the raw url syntax at the moment.

Sorry for the unrelated comment, but maybe the direct pdf link will help others too.

Does this link from the repo's README help? https://www.dropbox.com/s/c0n2dljz8anih62/CLOSURE.pdf?dl=0

When you open it, there is a download button on the top right of the frame around the PDF.

Perfect, thank you. Somehow the download button didn’t lead here, or at least didn’t trigger this for me. It might be because I have the GitHub iOS app installed.

I'll take this opportunity to link to Why's Poignant Guide to Ruby - https://poignant.guide - one of the most unique and inspiring programming language tutorials you'll ever read.

I never got it. Everyone says it’s fantastic, I feel like an idiot for absolutely not getting it at all when it came out and still not today.
