Thinking out loud
JKR has forced Amnesty International into retracting and apologising for a report into the anti-rights movement in the UK. I am reposting a copy here (which is also available via the Internet Archive).
Type design needs something better than a quick brown fox. Specifically, we need word lists that demonstrate pairs of letter forms efficiently.
The Go programming language has some subtle capabilities that make it possible to take logging, and therefore tracing and debugging, further than most other languages.

Categorical encodings can be tricky when you have a large number of possible categories but need to compress this into a small vector without significant loss.
