Over!

Alright, I’m pretty much done with what was the rather unexciting culmination of twelve years with the Ministry of Education.
But to the biology/physics/literature/TSD/random H3 people, all the best for your remaining papers – hang in there for just a while more – you can almost smell the freedom.

So this marks the end (somewhat) of what started out early this year as an unassuming attempt at what I’ve called utility maximizing since this site’s inception at the old page. And as much as I’m the RJ guy with nothing better to do than to make and upload his notes, I honestly hope that all this effort has been worth the while and have made some sort of a difference. It’s seriously been pretty encouraging for me all this while to see all the comments, the emails, the mysterious hits I get from Hotmail and Gmail, and I guess the end of the As more or less ends my job here.

So I’ll leave all this at that, and assure whoever’s interested that this site will remain online as far as I’m concerned. I won’t be checking or updating it much for now on – but we’ll just see what happens. If you’re interested in continuing this site, or doing something more, feel free to contact me at any time.

Once again, thanks everyone who’ve been supporting me and this site for the past few months or so. Just so you know, I end this with 15,000 hits – an immense number that would’ve seemed unimaginable when I first started on Google Pages in the middle of March. This has been awesome.

Signing out for what would probably be the last time,

Richard Baraniuk speaks to my heard in this presentation well worth watching. I just felt like I needed to remind all users that everything (at least, everything by me) on this site is on the Creative Commons under the license you see in the right hand sidebar. This means that everyone out there has my express permission to not only use, but to modify and improve on the notes that are on this site and distribute these derivatives. The only conditionality attached to this is that you redistribute these works under the same license as the original work.

I just felt like I needed to make this clear that you are free to continue whatever legacy you feel like I’m leaving. This is my experiment in open-source so that you don’t have to start from scratch.
