Poignant Guide / Nobody Knows Shoes link problem
yebyen opened this issue · 3 comments
Where is the canonical source for Nobody Knows Shoes?
I sent someone down the trail of links from poignant.guide and it led to a 404 on GitHub:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17105068
We have found the PDF again but it seems that some links are broken
Sadly since his disappearance NKS/poignant guide aren't properly maintained anymore but lots of people took care to save his masterful work.
My nks source is http://evc-cit.info/cit020/nks.pdf I think
poignant guide: https://poignant.guide/
and then there's whymirror: https://whymirror.github.io/
At shoes4 we try to make sure all examples from NKS still work
The weird one is this:
https://github.com/downloads/shoes/shoes-deprecated/nks.pdf
It looks like the repo contains the nks.pdf file (or once contained it) but Github appears to have lost the content during archival, or at least broken the link.
Thanks for the good links!
The link on shoesrb.com was fixed over in shoes/shoesrb.com#91, and I've also uploaded a copy of the file as a release over at https://github.com/shoes/shoes-assets/releases/tag/nks (had to use a release because the file's too large to just check in normally).
