SIGBOVIK 2013! (28 Feb 2013 at 19:42)

SIGBOVIK 2013, the world's most prestigious computer science conference, is coming up. I've been participating since the beginning in this superb lampooning of academia and whatever. This year I have a few silly/serious papers and a masterwork that I've put about 12 weekends into and which is truly too advanced for any other publication venue. In my humble opinion. Fact. But we can always use more submissions, and we welcome them from anywhere in the world on any topic, even if you can't attend. You've got a few more decoy deadlines left. So let's do!

I really liked your Sigbovik video. You sounded a bit like Ira Glass, which is among the highest compliments I can give you, and you kept everything engaging and interesting,which is probably the highest compliment I can give you.

I would've left this comment on the video but didn't want the attendant cruft that Google wanted to add.

Amazing work your auto Mario player
I wonder if your algorithm could be applicable for other tasks such as investing in the stock market, auto-driving, after some training of course.

I have been thinking about making a Tetris bot... where would you recommend one to start with that?

I must say I was not expecting to wake up to Steven Pinker tweeting a link to a New Yorker article about Tom 7!! Congratulations man. :D

uh, the 'Point One Hurts' game page links here instead of to its corresponding thread. Could you fix this?
