• ## Computational Graph Theory

A humerous presentation on Graph Theory, covering Linked Lists, Binary Search Trees, DAGs, and other relevant data structures and algorithms.

• ## Nondeterministic Time Sucks

This is a record of all of the times software became a drag, sucking up time, resources and energy trying to fix a stupid problem or a silly mistake. These issues have consumed hours of my life, and the solutions to these monkey puzzles were ultimately trivial. I keep this...

• ## Mathematical Cryptography

A presentation on the past, present and future of Mathematical Cryptography

• ## Optimization - Convex Analysis Review

Convex Analysis Review Notes Or, everything you ever needed to know from… Convex analysis? Convex Sets Let $$S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$$. The set $$S$$ is called Convex if for any $$x_1, x_2 \in S$$ and $$\lambda \in (0,1)$$, it holds that $\lambda x_1 + (1 - \lambda) x_2 \in S$ A...

At worst, they are kafkaesque personality tests based off of shaky pseudoscience. I learned some job recruiters ask candidates to take these surveys...
