Mathematica apprentice

My gravatar is an eternal golden braid, made with the following Mathematica code:

Graphics3D[{
  GrayLevel[.3], Specularity[White, 15],
  Lighting -> {{"Directional", 
     RGBColor[1, .5, .4], {{5, 5, 10}, {5, 5, 0}}},
    {"Point", Yellow, {12, 3, 15}},  
    {"Point", White, {12, 3, 4}}},
  KnotData[{"TorusKnot", {2, 5}}, "ImageData"]}, 
 ViewVector -> {{0, 0, 5}, {0, 0, 0}}, Boxed -> False, 
 Background -> None, Axes -> False, ImageSize -> 1000]

May 14	comment	Making large tables easy to read with frozen headings and scrollbars @bobthechemist best is to add your own answer and accept it. Comments aren't regarded as permanent enough for answers. And you don't have to accept this answer (it was just a PoC)...!

May 12	comment	Why ImportString[ExportString[, “PDF”], “PDF”] sometimes gives an extra point @Jens So another way of distinguishing between Times and Times New Roman...! :) The problem also appears in some other fonts, eg a Helvetica "g" (but not Helvetica Neue).
May 12	comment	No anti-aliasing on BarChart3D? Is `Antialiasing` a valid option for `BarChart3D`? (Not at a Mathematica machine at the moment?)
May 12	comment	No anti-aliasing on BarChart3D? So it's a platform thing. With more details, perhaps others can help.

May 11	reviewed	Approve suggested edit on 3D orbits and inaccuracy over time
May 11	comment	3D orbits and inaccuracy over time Odd. Mine's been running at the same speed for 15 minutes... The lines are slightly thicker towards the end of the run - but I think that looks more realistic :)
May 11	comment	3D orbits and inaccuracy over time How about adding `PerformanceGoal -> "Quality"`...
May 11	revised	Why ImportString[ExportString[, “PDF”], “PDF”] sometimes gives an extra point backquotes have been exterminated

May 10	comment	How do I draw a hemisphere? If you're interested in this type of geometry, you might enjoy Yu-sung Chan's presentation.
May 9	comment	Conditionals slower than operators? I didn't edit the last sentence of your question. Could you explain what you're asking?
May 9	revised	Conditionals slower than operators? new title and some general copyediting
