Readings, Notes, and Questions

Accessibility

Provided are notes and lectures for the various texts referenced, as well as links to download these texts, legally and/or illegally. In the case of anthologies, we provide access to both the main anthology, and their papers. We provide a primary lecture where we may find it, and we’ve mirrored and archived everything we could (except for textbooks).

We see no ethical concern, nor care to.

Our Thought

Primary texts here are shown absent of the choir’s own thought. You’ll find application of our thought to various papers elsewhere (eventually). For now, regarding primary texts, we’ll provide as much context as we can with that an anthology or companion may fail to do, through other papers and resources. We’ll also provide you guidelines in reading the text itself.

In reading the texts, you’re expected to give them the benefit of the doubt, and practice our doctrine of humility.

Textbook Archiving

The textbooks aren’t archived yet because it’s a bit of a risk to mirror something bots crawl for, or whose owner has dedicated IP protection for, on a service like Google Drive or Dropbox.

We have them downloaded somewhere, so if you contact [email protected], they’ll share it freely with you if any of the links we shared are brought down.

We’ll eventually setup a torrent, NAS, open directory, and/or content provider of some kind one day, so we won’t need to rely on third party services anymore. But for now, all we can provide are links to where we can find them free.

The questions are in .yaml format, and provide multiple choice and single word questions. We rip out the questions as can be found in certain textbooks as well, and provide answers for them if we can. We seperate textbook provided questions from the novel questions of we create.

Using the .yaml files right now doesn’t mean much unless you want to code your own quizzing app. Our own self-testing framework is in development, which we’ll have a web-app up and running for eventually.

Regardless, we provide answers to these questions when we can. Math answers are formatted in latex if it can’t be avoided, and we’ll try to be as comprehensive as we can in including the different formatted types of correct answers, with the assumptions that the answers will be checked against when lower-cased and stripped of internal and external whitespace.
