Excellent video, such a pleasure to watch. Even with all the equipment and setup problems, labs are such a good memory...
(Just a minor thing but I thought that the video suggested that the Gibbs phenomenon was a result of the finite decomposition instead of, unless my memory is misleading me, being a sort of fundamental feature of the piecewise smooth square wave function)

I bet "how many people downloaded the DRM-less version" is an important statistic for Mozilla - Having FF in the middle of an automatic update, I'll be getting the other version however, and I wonder if having disabled this feature, will the browser call home to count towards it...

I wanted to take a break (A month or so) from my current project to learn a bit about file systems. I've played with Xv6s filesystem before and am interested in reading about bfs, fossil and related arch and modern ideas in general. Any resources would be really appreciated.

Do you happen to know of more modern resources?

I wanted to ask you if tags on a mian dev branch, wouldn't be enough, but I guess the reason for branches is the ability to port back some changes etc.?

Because A knows the month and says B doesn't know the birthday, it cannot be May or June since they have unique days (Which would allow B to know the birthday). So far so good.
After this statement B know it's one of the remaining two months, July or August and that's enough for him to know the correct date hence they day he was told cannot be the 14th. leaving only July 16th, Aug 15 and Aug 17.
Since this information is enough for B to know the exact date, it clearly cannot be August, leaving only July the 16th.
