rien n'est simple, mais tout est facile

i like to stay up late on the computer, looking for answers.

this is the wiki of nick black (aka dank), located at 33°46′44.4"N, 84°23'2.4"W (33.779, 85.384) in the heart of midtown atlanta. dankwiki's rollin' wit' you, though i make no guarantees of its correctness, relevance, nor timeliness. track changes using the recent changes page. i've revived DANKBLOG, this wiki and grad school having not satisfied ye olde furor scribendi.

hack the planet! don't mistake my kindness for weakness.

i primarily write to force my own understanding, and remember things (a few entries are actually semi-authoritative). i'm just a disreputable Mariner on your way to the Wedding. if you derive use from this wiki, consider yourself lucky, and please get confirmation before relying on my writeups to perform surgery, design spacecraft, determine whether a graph G is an Aanderaa–Rosenberg scorpion, or feed your pet rhinoceros. do not proceed if allergic to linux, postmodern literature, nuclear physics, or cartoonish supervillainy. ■
