A couple of days ago, I received an email from a student in The Netherlands, where I am currently based. In it, he asked me an interesting question. So I wrote him a reply, and that kind of turned into an epistle of sorts. The original message and my reply are available below for you [...]

Blog Maintenance
This week, the software that powers my blog has been updated. On the one hand I'm quite happy with this, because it will allow me to manage the thing much more efficiently.
