meeting with nick

• [ ] pare down!
• • [ ] in the listings, extend the caption to show the relevance of the snippet (e.g. for listing 8, neither is said about APL or about Game of Life: how should readers know this is relevant?)
• • [ ] for stats comparing different software (windows2000, wp, kirby), use a chart to make the point much quicker
• • [ ] justify the comparison between win2000 and kirby (differences in size, date of creation)
• • [ ] also explain a bit more fast sqrt (greg walsh must have had a deep knowledge of ieee floating points standards)
• • [ ] fig. 10: original is color coded, but also too hard to comprehend. magmarize would be a better example
• • [ ] move listing 10 to understanding computers
• • [ ] one liner: monostiche
• • [ ] since this is too long, paraphrase code, rather than quote it
• • [ ] linsting 2, not style but voices
• • [ ] black perl is still in old mode
• • [ ] explain listing 13
• [ ] table of listings: this is what the work is about (variety, meaningful, captioned; the caption is also for me cause it shows i am able to express concisely why the example is there)
