That's interesting given there's no licensing certainly on my video :) I will be asking scotlandjs to update the Vimeo page to ensure there's a Creative Commons non-commercial license specified as I'm not _super_ excited about people charging for access to my work.

To add another resource to the list, I gave an introductory talk to bacon.js and FRP last year which has similar diagrams to these which I animated with d3 if anyone'a interested: http://vimeo.com/m/68987289

With regards to "major version 4" we are doing our best to follow semver, where backwards incompatible changes require a bump in the major version.
So yes and no, this is a work in progress (what isn't) and we will constantly be pushing to make the docs better. We've been working hard over the last couple of weeks to get this into some form of a publicly releasable state, but yes it's not perfect :)
If you want to help us out, feel free to submit PRs or issues on github. The main site is at http://github.com/ampersandjs/ampersandjs.com while the API references are generated from their individual readmes, all available in that github org.

Yup, we are basically targeting ie9 as a minimum, though some pieces will be okay in lesser browsers.
Obviously that will mean some people can't use it, but hey, trade offs right :)

As is typical, the day someone posts simplewebrtc to hackernews is the day our demo app (talky.io) goes down!
We're on it and should have it back up really soon.
Sorry!

Don't forget the ability to explain it well in writing!

This list is taken from this article: http://www.carlkingcreative.com/10-myths-about-introverts
which is based on the guy reading this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Introvert-Advantage-Thrive-Extrovert-W...
I read the book myself recently, and I can highly recommend it if you feel that you sit anywhere on the introvert spectrum.
It covers the "science" behind introversion, how introverts vs. extroverts think and respond to stimuli and neurochemicals. (I put science in quotes as I don't know enough about the brain to know how scientific the discussion is but I found it useful and interesting nonetheless).
It then goes on to look at how this affects introverts' interactions with themselves, others, and in social situations - with some thoughts and guidance on how to better integrate into an "extroverted world" without just trying to be more extroverted.
I have definitely found it helpful and it's made me think a lot about who I am and how I react to life as an introvert.

The best tip I've been given for practice is to actually sit with a piece of paper and write out your thought process whilst solving these little problems.
It's feels a bit laborious at first, but I find it makes for much more effective practice than getting to the answer in a roundabout way, and not really knowing how you get there.
As in hackerblues' comment, sitting and explicitly writing: "If I write a 5 in this cell then the column will contain two 5s. Therefore, this cell can't contain a 5." is more effective than bumbling around and just getting it right, particularly when practicing with simple examples.

I'll third that. I was dubious for a while, decided to get one for my birthday. Definitely the right move, fantastic device.

I haven't tried, but I think this should be very easy to implement as a Google Chrome extension, if it hasn't been done already.
Just had a quick look, and there is this extension: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/eochlhpceohhhfog...
That could be a pretty good starting point to build one that scrolls based on the mousewheel rather than choosing an option.
Just this weekend I tried jalmus, but couldn't get it running and ended up trying to write something kinda similar to this:
