Deep Dive Packs

Code is another way to read

Renaissance perspective, quantum philosophy, the Reformation, the things papers don't say — fields I've been curious about but never had time to dig into properly. I've been re-reading them in Python. Packaged into Deep Dive Packs you can run yourself.

What Code & Cogito does is take the questions usually filed under "humanities," "history," "philosophy" — and run them through Python.

How did Renaissance perspective actually become a thing? Is quantum superposition the same shape as Buddhist emptiness? What does 2008 look like on the same chart as the tulip mania?

The answers aren't in the code. But code can sketch the shape of the question more clearly.

That's the work each article goes through. The scripts, the cleaned datasets, the notes that came out of it — those are the Deep Dive Packs listed on this page.

Not textbooks. Closer to working files of an exploration. Left here for anyone curious about the same things.

FAQ

What's in a Pack?
Python code (.py + .ipynb), datasets (.csv), tri-lingual PDF cheatsheets, tri-lingual Notion templates, getting-started guide. A Bundle includes every Pack in that series.
How does Pay what you want work?
Each Pack has a minimum (singles from $4.99, Bundles from $9.99) — pay anything at or above that. The suggested price is what I think the work is worth; what you actually pay is up to you.
Are the three language versions different?
Code and datasets are identical. PDF cheatsheets and Notion templates come in 繁中 / English / 日本語. One purchase gets all three. Articles themselves are also published in all three languages.
Can I get a refund?
Yes — within 7 days, via Gumroad, no reason needed.
Why Pay what you want?
Rather than a fixed price, I'd rather let the buyer decide. Students, beginners, people who want to support — there's a workable price for each.
Is the code open source?
Yes. MIT License — modify, use commercially, teach with it. The Pack sells the curated bundle and the tri-lingual notes.
