Self plug: I made Jupyter notebooks for each chapter of this and the DFT and Physical Modeling books in this series, with Python animations/audio for some key concepts:

I thought it was epic, gorgeous, fun, and made total sense for the product! There are other pianos in the world. Like, a _lot_ of pianos in the world. It only stands to reason a few will get crushed in a massive hydraulic press for a fun ad.

TL;DR: If more folks feel this way, please upvote this comment: I'll be happy to take down this post, change the title, and either re-post it or just don't - the GitHub repo is out there - that that should be more than enough. Sorry again for the confusion (I just upvoted it).

I am deeply sorry about the confusion. And the last thing I intended was to grab any attention away from Andrej, and / or being confused with him.

I tried to find a way to edit the post title, but I couldn't find one. Is there just a limited time window to do that? If you know how to do it, I'd be happy to edit it right away in case.

I didn't even think this post would get any attention at all - it is my first post indeed here, and I really did it just b/c if anybody could use this project to learn RL I was happy to share.

Throwing in my vote - I wasn’t confused, saw your GH link and a “Zero to Hero” course name on RL, seems clear to me and “Zero to Hero” is a classic title for a first course, nice that you gave props to Andrea too! Multiple people can and should make ML guides and reference each other. Thanks for putting in the time to share your learnings and make a fantastic resource out of it!

One of the first programs I ever wrote - a program to find valid English crossword fills given a grid pattern with optional partial completions.

This project came to mind recently and I looked around on the Wayback Machine. Turns out I posted the jar on MediaFire and linked to it on an old blog on Jan 2, 2011. Luckily, there was [_one capture_ of the jar on MediaFire](https://web.archive.org/web/20240123154949/https://download1...) from oddly recently (Jan 23 2024). I downloaded and opened it on my 2023 MacBook Air, and it ran! Since it's Java, I'm guessing it runs on other computers, too :)

It was a delight to find it still working. Anyone else ever find an old program you thought you lost and get it running again?

EDIT: As a couple observant folks pointed out, the original MediaFire link actually still works, so WB machine saved the day by making it possible to find the link, but the jar was also still hosted on the today-internet :)

Why is that lucky? The MediaFire link is still live anyway.

Someone else pointed this out as well - I didn't realize the original MediaFire link still worked. Updated to reflect.

Good catch! I didn’t realize the original link still worked. Also didn’t know about the “why” notes on WB index. Thanks!

I mean, the original MF link literally still works (I intentionally break the link in case HN filters it)[1].

> Luckily, there was [archived] from oddly recently (Jan 23 2024)

You can see archiving reason on WB's index page [2].

In this case, it was archived due to "why: archiveteam, archiveteam_mediafire".
