Most links were update to follow redirects.
The link to Delft University's Introduction to Functional Programming 404's, however, old links redirect to this URL, and so do search results on Edx. I assume this is a temporary issue from Edx and the page is supposed to be at this URL.
Colombia's Machine Learning and Data Science course is gone entirely, so that link was deleted.
Computer Networks: A Systems Approach is a freely available web-based ebook that teaches computer networking from a bottom-up systems perspective, as opposed to the top-down approach seen in the OSSU curriculum. The book has been included in several university curricula, such as CMU's 15-441.

change gitter -> discord
* pin minima theme version
Pin the minima theme version, as recommended by https://github.com/jekyll/minima README
Another attempt at switching to a better theme (with dark mode) for the OSSU CS github pages website. It looks like this: https://pulkitkrishna.eu.org/computer-science/
Changes:
- Change the theme to `minima`, the default jekyll theme (jekyll is the static site generator used by github pages). This supports a dark theme. if your OS and Browser is in dark mode, the website will appear with a dark theme.
- Made some changes to the theme's components to better fit the OSSU github repository layout, and not require any changes to the markdown files themselves. The goal is to not affect anyone who uses the github repository instead, in any way.
- Added a favicon
- Change the OSSU banner and the "keep learning" image to local webp images, instead of png/jpeg hosted on imgur, to make them load faster.
- Remove the mention of curriculum version number.
Change the link in the prerequisite column of the Intro CS course to point to the FAQ about high school math, and not to Khan academy, to keep things consistent
* Add information about pset due dates
A frequently asked question from students on discord is whether they are supposed to do pset 1 just after lecture 2, when it requires topics which they have not covered yet. Add information about that.
* Update README.md
- Adds note about course textbook to be taken as optional as with any paid material listed in all OSSU courses
- Adds extra practice as shared by @pulkitkrishna00
- Modifies bullets to be numbered. Instructions should be numbered.
The original software engineering course from UBC was not available, and hence was temporarily switched to a Coursera course without any discussion. The original course is now once again available, so we should switch back to it.
