How in the world have you found this?

I still need to add some short blurbs about each chapter, but here's the website for Exploring Graph Theory With Julia, complete with my lazily-designed temporary cover "art": https://leanpub.com/exploring-graph-theory-with-julia
I would love to know if this book sounds interesting to you!
(Boosts welcome 🙏 )
@rebrafsim
It had to be someone's fault.
You may not know that #Batman uses #Julia as an all-purpose #programming #language .

Yeah, me too. But they're so taken... 😅

So... they don't use steam engines? 😉

I know I have very little ground on which to comment on the beauty of a typeface, but this variable font is *SO GOOD* and I really wish I’d found it before “CSS: The Definitive Guide, 5th Edition” published a month back, because it would have been **perfect** for the examples in the Fonts chapter.
Try out all the features and variability of Elstob at https://psb1558.github.io/Elstob-font/, which also links to a Github repository where you can get it.
Apparently, mastodon.social is down. Again.
So, something else new around here?

These (on the picture) seem second-hand books.
Imediately came to my mind two of the best second-hand books I bought and read:
1. Freedom at Midnight by Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre;
2. The Moneychangers by Arthur Hailey.

It's weird to distrust your own brain.
I'm at an awkward stage of #LongCovid recovery, where I can do many things, but some, like music composition, are beyond me. I can noodle with instruments and it sounds good in the studio, but I can't seem to assemble the components into structural wholes. I'm trying to accept how I am, of perhaps how I'll remain, while still trying to progress musically. It's weird and frustrating, the part of my mind that went away.

The best analogy I ever read on how people are taking what's happening to the #planet #earth now.
"There, in this burning house, they play, sport, and amuse themselves with all sorts of games. They do not know that this dwelling is afire, they do not understand it, do not perceive it, pay no attention to it, and so they feel no agitation. Though threatened by this great [fire], though in such close contact with so much ill, they pay no attention to their danger, and make no efforts to get out."
-- from The Saddharmapundarika, in Buddhist Scriptures, Edward Conze (Penguin Books, 1959)
