Links

I will be posting here links to interesting content. Often times I want to link someone something interesting I read and I can’t quite remember where I saw it. If I manage to update this page in a timely manner, I can just link them this and tell them to check out a specific entry.

This page is now being transformed into individual files, each one pertaining to a specific topic.
