[jeremycherfas]: I definitely don't feel so! My DM is always opened BTW if you have any questions about Git. I'll try my best to answer. It may feel intimidating at first but it is a useful skill and tool to have IMO. I only wish I knew about it in school days, no more of those 'draft-3_final_proofread_final.doc' and can roll back any time.

I don't understand what the current crypto / database / set theory conversation has to do with a personal website

[artlung]
Those were topics Charlie writes about on his website

Would anyone be up for hosting HWC Europe next week? I haven’t put one in the calendar as I’m unsure I’ll be able to make it. I’m going to be at a concert the day before so I might be a bit sleepy by Wednesday evening.
