sorry I really tried to fit this into the last tweet but I think struggling to fit complex technical material into artificial content limits really fits with the theme of POPL, so here's Yiyun Liu, @ionathanch, @jwshi21, and @fancytypes 's PDF: dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/3… 5/5

PL and SE colleagues. Have you ever decided that you should take the lead on content development for an InfoVis course? Numerical computing? Graphics? Or do you tend to stay in your (our) lane? (Follow-up question coming if people answer this.)
