Corrections to the lectures, to the numbers on the uploads, and to us. Dated, credited, and never quietly edited away.
VideoFirst hand accountDocumentOur analysis
The short version
Two of the five uploads carry the wrong lecture number. We use the class's numbering and say so everywhere.
One reel plays out of order. We play it in the order it was taught.
The 2009 boards have arithmetic slips in them. We print the board as written, then the correction.
When we get something wrong, it lands here with a date and your name on it.
Nothing on this site is silently edited. A page that gets corrected links to its entry.
This page exists because of a decision: these pages publish as finished work with no draft label.
That only works if the correction path is public and real. So every fix goes here, ours included,
and the page it corrects points at the entry.
Send a correction through the contact page. If you are right you
get the credit line.

Open questions
These are printed as open because the house rule is that a page does not ship with a hidden
unknown in it. If you can close one, you get the entry.
Corrections from readers
Nothing here yet. This section is the point of the page, so it should not stay empty.
If you spot a bad timestamp, a misspelled handle, a number that does not survive checking, or a
claim we have stated more confidently than the evidence allows, send it through
the contact page. Corrections get a dated entry with your credit,
and the page they fix links back here.
How we label things, so you can hold us to it
The five badges
Video. It is on the tape, and the timestamp beside it takes you to the second.
First hand account. One person who was in the room wrote it down at the time, and the page names him.
Document. The syllabus, the homework, a solution key, or the class's own announcements.
Reconstruction. We have assembled a session from indirect evidence. Ours, not theirs.
Our analysis. Our own work, seventeen years later, checked against the engine's rules where a number is involved.
If a page carries a claim you cannot trace to one of those five, that is itself a correction worth
sending.
