   I definitely designed my site with the stereotypical 90s hacker terminal in-mind :)

   Interesting point, could be worth adding a note to students about the finite precision of floating point numbers in Python. Thanks for pointing this out!

    Very cool! I created urlpages [0] as a proof-of-concept with a similar goal. It is always interesting to read about how others try to solve the same problem. [0]: https://github.com/jstrieb/urlpages

    I made this very quickly in an evening as a proof-of-concept for a more advanced version to be integrated into Slack. I am a member of several group chats in which math is commonly discussed, but it is sometimes difficult without notation.

    Thanks for the input! Finding a more concise alternative to base-64 encoding is currently an item in TODO. I've also been thinking about other forms of compression. Regarding your last point, my plan is to have the main page (index.htm

    Will try and find a way to test this. Feel free to open an issue on GitHub

    While I agree that this is technically correct, I feel it ignores the spirit of the project. Since I released it open-source, my expectation is that anyone who cares about safety from takedowns will clone and host one or more of their own.

    Added to the TODO section in the repo. I agree that it seems pretty doable to implement digital signatures, and similarly to support encrypting and password-protecting URL Pages. Since this has received more attention than I expected, I&#x2

    I have an example that I haven't yet uploaded of an entire (small) site in one URL. If the links are all to be URL Pages, the site has to have a strict tree structure, otherwise there is a circular dependence/chicken-egg problem.

    This and IPFS/Tor are not mutually exclusive. The one sticking point is that this requires JavaScript to work, which is disabled by default in most tor installations.

    I consciously accepted the risks of my host being blacklisted or taken down when I shared this. Luckily, the benefit of open source is that anyone can clone the repository and host any number of similar services if they are serious about us

    That's why I let that part of the project be the focus! I also hope the interest it has generated will inspire others with more knowledge and experience to make better versions or variations that are more practical.

    Hello, creator here! I originally conceived this as a simple, static CodePen clone, but I felt the "publishing" of pages as URLs was an interesting idea. So I decided to present that aspect of it front and center, even though it w
