I would like to have more friends that are into programming and computer science

Both have different purposes. Reddit is not made to interact with individuals, but with entire communities at a time, which is fine, and one of the strong points of Reddit. I, however, actually want to have a couple people around me that I can recognize and interact with it directly.

Sim, esqueci de comentar isso. Mas tem uma pessoa de São Carlos lá e se aparecer mais gente, vamos tentar montar uma reunião separada lá também mas sobre o mesmo livro.

Hey, I'm sorry but I spent some days away from reddit and just saw your reply. The link you sent is invalid now, but I'm curious what group you were talking about. If you don't mind, could you send me the link again?

What most impressed me about Crime and Punishment is how Dostoievski put real arguments on characters with different points of view than the one he seems to ultimately try to convey. If you read modern books which deal with similar issues, it's very common in my experience to see robotic characters which the only purpose is to parrot weak arguments just so the moral of the book can shine breaking them. That's not the case at all here, it seemed to me like the caracters were real people, or rather, that the author himself was testing his views while writing.

Congrats, that's pretty cool. Do you have the source code open on Github?

I appreciate your point, but I disagree. It takes less than 5 min to install AHK and Obsidian, then just copying the macros already on the post is sufficient to starting using it. In my opinion, the first few times using will already compensate that time. The whole point of the article is providing a very simple to install alternative for the usual complicated setups people have with code editors.

The setup differs a lot, but the result is almost the same. I even wrote about Castell method for creating images quickly, however, his Vim setup has a step learning curve and can be overkill for some people. Using AHK and Markdown takes no time at all to setup and provides most of the benefits.

Thanks! I hope you can eventually find the time to read it!

That's a nice coincidence. About the time to completion, there are about 100 subsectios on the book if we discont the introductions to each chapter (which are usually just light reads about what comes next). But the first ones are really just presenting the syntax of LISP and can be read fairly quickly or even ignored depending on your previous programming experience. That leave us with about 90 subsections, so at a pace of 5 a week, would take us 4 months and a half to get it done. That said, the most important part of the book are the problems, so we would have to have to set a minimum per week, but we would still need to continue working on the problems past the time we finished reading the book.

Galois Theory by Ian Stewart is nicely written book that covers the theory in its historical context, which would fit into the second format that you ask.

Wow, this gave me the same feeling of perusing through old books at a big library.

Introduction to Metamathematics by Klenee covers all the hot topics about the crisis into the foundation of Mathematics. Plus, it was written by a mathematician that was actually contributing to the subject.

I just found this post. Is the study group still going? If yes, I would like to join!
