Heh. I wanted to store my old university coursework somewhere, and GitHub seemed as good a place as any. Because I'm cheap and don't want to pay for a private repo, there it sits in all its public glory. Few years back I got an irate email from a professor that students were copying a program I wrote for a SPARC assembly course which has remained unchanged for, like, two decades. So, to some degree the whole plagiarism thing is due to professorial laziness.

Oh, now that is great! Instead of just re-writing the problem for the class, the PI takes the time to write you an angry email and just make themself look foolish. Gotta love lazy professors.

People are turning in your SPARC assembly code for their assignments? Are they actually still teaching SPARC assembly?

I don't know if it's still the case of this year, but for our computer architecture course we learned SPARC as well as x86. Was pretty neat to explore the different ways of doing things.
