Penultimate draft Depending on how much I can be bothered reading through it again.
Drafted into submission
Commit things
A 1.5th order approximation to a 1st draft This will probably have to be good enough, as I need to catch a bus.
Restructure chapters, delete a bunch of words, add more words, do some things, panic a little I can see where I want it to go but I can't see how I can get it there.
The inevitable doom approaches Deadline approaching, battery dying, no adaptor, X crashing, gdm3 is a piece of shit bus was late, almost locked wallet in lab, porcupine does not have the pygments latex package wasted time writing commit messages...
That's it I give up I might try and find the spelling/grammar errors if I am alive. But I am not going to write any more even though the second "half" is woefully horrible. I don't care about page limits if they don't like it they can just... not read the extra pages. No really, the quality definitely goes down towards the end.
Literally not finished Ok, deep breaths I am about 2/3 done here. Hopefully the last part will be easier since I already have some notes on it in ipdf/documents Also I won't be hand editing SVGs anymore, why did I do that... Then I guess I should edit it or something. :S
PostScript or should I say NotJavaScript By the way Cairo outputs stupidly verbose PostScript Making every single operator a single character does not help when you redefine paths every single time you use them. Manually editing that one image into different formats is taking longer than working out what to say about them :S
Six Degrees of Document Format This just in, PDF has Javascript in it but it isn't quite the same as the DOM Why Oh also, does Javascript have its own standard or is it just included in HTML's standard
Webby DOM stuff <?xml version="xml except where it isn't"> <!DOCTYPE gitcommit> <rant id="rantyrantrant" style="CSS:nope;" d="why is html not a subset of xml and what is sgml and why does anyone care anyway"> <subrant>Now I've got that out of my system I should do the previous section "Why Knuth Is Right And Everyone Else Is Wrong" about PostScript, PDF, TeX/LaTeX and METAFONT.</subrant> <subrant>Then I really want to write about actual floats I mean it's about floats god dammit</subrant> <realisation level="depressing">There is too many things for this to work</realisation> <superrant>It's like, anything that is vaguely related in any way to producing a pixel on a screen is relevant to our literature. <terror>Are we just Doing It Wrong?</terror><doomed>But I can't leave it all out now</doomed></superrant> </rant>
