Other work to do

• General copy editing 🫡 (consistency in voice, hyphenation, US vs UK english, etc)
• Acknowledgements / Dedication
• Create list of copy-editing tasks below

Copy-editing tasks

• Are words hyphenated correctly?
• UK English used throughout?
• Are footnotes always placed after periods, and before commas?
• Move to macros for common phrases
  • aspect-orientation
  • aspect-oriented
  • aspect-oriented programming
  • PyDySoFu
  • socio-technical
  • research questions!
• Ensure consistent use of either "within" or "fuzzing" advice. I use these interchangeably. If keeping both, explain explicitly that they're equivalent.
• Ensure quotes are formatted correctly throughout
• Ensure code blocks are formatted correctly throughout
• Past / present? I always forget. Be consistent!
• Ensure consistent punctuation in captions (do I end with periods, etc)
• Do I still have reference to hyperbolic decay, or to two models of learning?
  • If so, remove. Hyperbolic decay is in the bin, unfortunately.
