Check out my paper with Taylor Lundy that initiates this agenda: Possibly the paper I'm most proud of: elegant proofs, lots of intuition, massive lit review, and general discussion of this problem and where it's similar vs. different to known areas.

Would you submit to an EC Workshop on *teachable results*? Your iid or n=m case is fine, as long as it's a cute accessible self-contained 10 minute proof!. (No limits on already being published or how old, as long as it's not already canon in curricula).

If you’re unhappy with the US government’s actions, do the simplest yet most powerful thing you can and don’t spend money on Friday.

Job market postscript learned as faculty TL;DR:.No one is out to get you. For anything not going your way, it's probably due to people being busy or bureaucracy. And there are probably people working very hard for you behind the scenes regardless.

Cleaning up over here since it's much nicer over there and the terms of service are getting worse. Just a reminder there are easy ways to bootstrap over there, see below, or see the browser extension "sky follower bridge" to find people there.

Q: What is bluesky?.A: Nearly identical interface to twitter, minus all the algorithms and design choices that inflate toxicity and amplify Musk's opinions. Think Twitter 5 year ago, with a much smaller (but growing) user base, and one that is weirdly nice and positive?.
