How did @npub1k72…qdge know I'm writing a topology textbook?

@npub1upk…tcwy Hi from xoxo! Here's the C textbook I'd mentioned: ben.klemens.org/box/newc.pdf
I think of you as a tools-oriented person, so maybe you'll like that it's as much about tooling as C itself.

I've been reading a topology textbook to get to sleep every night. It's a win-win: either I fall asleep within a page, or I get to know a rather fundamental field.

My cohost is a speaker so I'm at these #sxsw events for free, but most of the people paid circa 2k to be here.
My big lesson so far: if you're a rich person, people give you lots of free stuff.

@npub1upk…tcwy makes the excellent point that git uses all-caps "HEAD" to mean the revision you currently have checked out, and lower-case "head" to mean the last commit on a branch.
It's suddenly so obvious how much confusion I've had that stemmed from these two entirely different uses of the same word.
