Recurse Center Week 4

Another busy and fun week. I am going to ignore the fact that it’s currently week 5, and post this anyway.

This week, I:

• Finished writing the code for 6.006 problem sets 2 and 3, including writing an AVL tree with a subtree size augmentation and learning about Python decorators (a syntax I’ve used a handful of times over the past couple of years without really understanding.)
• Mapped the paquete distribution network in Havana using Mapbox APIs. This will be shared publicly soon!

• Handled some social/emotional labor tasks and caught up with friends from outside the area.
• Fixed a couple bugs in Vignette and got the demo environment running on Mac OS High Sierra
• Added tests to my Go cryptopals project
• Added music to one of my image resynthesis videos
• Restructured image resynthesis project to be less script-y and to use real data structures (in-progress)
• Figured out how to remove perspective from the Mapbox GL renderer and generated some fun geographic viewpoints.
