- ofou 4y agowoops! Thanks for pointing it out!
- cwillu 4y agoThe “examples” appear to be the complete output, i.e., are actually full copies of all the essays. That's probably not a great idea given that there's no explicit license on the source material, that he's said elsewhere he'd prefer people link rather than rehost, and has a book of many of the essays who's publisher may or may not have purchased the distribution rights.
