would be nice to hear more about your self-directed learning, i'm in a similar boat right now.

how did you review fundamentals? how did you pick what topics to pursue? etc

> ... has a built-in repl. At any point you can press escape and pull it up, and it’s docked to the bottom of the page...

probably not a good decision to use `Esc` since browsers have default bindings for it. firefox exits fullscreen on `Esc`

The cited book has no information on how the surveys themselves were conducted. The book is an overall romanticization of pre-colonial india, and frequently indulges in nostalgia.

The following books have a good overview of education&caste in india.

A. L. Basham, The Wonder That Was India

Gail Omvedt, Understanding Caste

I fail to see why this is being pointed out?

> People from a higher caste tend to have higher IQ,

>> People from a higher caste tend to have better access to resources,

also a >Mankind Quarterly, a known fringe Far-right Racist publication.

caste system in india is an evil that persists even today, and is a complex topic. majority of the indian-origin users on hackernews or people in the IT community are very likely upper castes. see [1] If you are interested to learn more about the caste system in india it is recommended to get your facts from multiple sources. start from [2]

try it out with different voices, for starters try

  say "process failure" -v trinoids
you can find all the available voices with

  say -v '?' 
or from Accessibility>Spoken-Content>System-voice>Manage-voices

Thanks for sharing this. I'm going to try out the perfectionism workbooks. Also nice that the pdfs have forms to fill stuff in.
