Summary

This adds 36 new facts and quotes to the coin on the home page, which now has 85 in all. It also fixes the clumsy plain-English sentence about my hobbies.

Related Issue

None. Requested directly.

Changes Made

  • Software engineering (new category, 💻):
    • Ada Lovelace's first program (1843) and her Jacquard loom quote.
    • Grace Hopper: the moth logged as the first "bug" (1947), the A-0 compiler (1952), and her quotes "We've always done it this way" and "A ship in port is safe…".
    • Margaret Hamilton and the Apollo flight software.
    • Quotes from Fred Brooks and Linus Torvalds.
  • Yoga:
    • The eight limbs, and the five yamas and five niyamas.
    • Yoga Sutra 1.2 in Sanskrit with its meaning, plus a word-by-word fact.
    • Yoga Sutra 2.46, and a quote from B. K. S. Iyengar.
    • The seven chakras with their elements and colors. A note says the rainbow colors are a 20th-century Western addition.
  • Stargazing (new hobby, 🔭):
    • How many stars you can see without a telescope.
    • The Andromeda Galaxy, the Bortle scale, and the light pollution atlas.
    • A Carl Sagan quote.
  • Origami (new category, 🦢): senbazuru, the thousand paper cranes, and Sadako Sasaki.
  • Studio Ghibli quotes:
    • Zeniba (Spirited Away)
    • Hii-sama (Princess Mononoke)
    • The Baron (The Cat Returns)
    • Howl (Howl's Moving Castle)
    • Jiro (The Wind Rises)
  • Community: "If we can bend a little, maybe shift our perception…", credited to "Unknown".
  • About card:
    • Stargazing is added to the hobbies list.
    • The plain-English sentence now ends "…stargazing, community building, making things and crafting stained glass." It used to end "…maker and stained glass."
    • The JSON view keeps the labels unchanged.

  2. npm run generate
  3. On the home page, spin the coin several times and check the new categories and quotes.
