I'd like to find a way to reorganize Math ∩ Programming eventually. As alfonsodev points out, it's a bit hard to find stuff for newer and less mathy readers, though there is a handful of articles aimed at them. [1,2,3,4] As other users point out, they don't like the layout. Suggestions?

I'm considering changing the theme completely.

First of all, I'd be curious to plug Algolia on this blog :) Then, maybe you should have less words per line. http://digerateur.xyz/2015/11/18/tri-bulle-ation/ http://digerateur.xyz/2015/11/18/tri-bulle-ation/ is a good example. Also, I'd love to see Jupyter notebooks made out of the coding material you cover. But maybe that's only me.

It would be interesting to have a kind of "course" (emailed to subscribers) to discover your blog. Something like "Every day, a chunk of Math ∩ Programming in your inbox", I would personally be interested at least!

  Same here! I've had the Math ∩ Programming blog open in a tab on my computer for probably 3 weeks now, trying to get around to reading it. Having it delivered once or twice a week in a logical order would be amazing, and worth paying for.

List of ideas: * I'd agree that first and foremost, I'd change the line width. I've always found the blog a bit difficult to read on the site because of the number of words per line. The site seems to be responsive - maybe just change the width of the articles? * It might be worth having the landing page have something other than "featured articles" right at the top. Since the content of your site is so diverse, it might help to have some pointers as to how to navigate the site up front. * On the navigation sidebar, maybe have a "New Here?" or a "Getting Started" link. Just some ideas. I've been reading your blog for many years, btw. It even inspired me to start my own!
