You left out "Presentation and Proof", say it right or don't say it at all.

This comment would be better without the second part. Please be civil on HN.

Ah.. adding additional alphabetics annihilated an apex alliterative accomplishment. Also, acerbic and assholish annotations always abate awesomeness and aren't appreciated.

("Always avoid alliteration?" An arrogant and antiquated assessment.)

I await with bated breath the story of the bar bet lost that generated that title. (Never mind that it actually seems like an interesting read!)

It was either 'go with the title or come up with another one', and I was too tired to argue.

By the way, the paper was really an excuse to document this IJulia notebook.

If you run it on your local machine, one of the cells has an interactive slider that lets you control the breadth of the parallel prefix tree you generate.

I didn't mean to imply the title was bad in any way - it just has that look (like the famed penguin diagram :) Personally, I think it's a triumph of alliteration, especially as it made sense.

And thanks for the direct link to the IJN. I really love that format, and will definitely run it on my machine!
