When writing a compiler/linker, when I need to know what order to put things in, I perform a topological sort of the dependency graph.

When writing a complex talk, when I need to know what order to put things in, perhaps I should perform a topological sort of a dependency graph...!

I'm writing a dot file right now to graph the relationships between all the topics for my talk to figure out how I should organize and eliminate them. Not what I expected to be doing. And unfortunately I can't just take the first topological sort and call it a day. The resulting talk wouldn't be very good.

Step one should be get back to work instead of using GNU Social as a procrastination tool.
