SIGBOVIK deadline makes the doppler noise as it rushes past me
(31 Mar at 22:38) |
Hi! Bad deadline timing here: I'm going to stay up late finishing my SIGBOVIK paper for the real extended deadline, but this uses exactly the same minutes and the brain sugars that I would use to write a blog post. So I'm going to conserve those for the paper-finishing.
I will, however, preview that I will put the paper here: tom7.org/ruperts when I submit the conference version. Spoiler alert: This is not some epic hack; I tried to solve an already known math problem (but one that is appealing and upsetting) and (surprise) didn't succeed. Since it's a geometry problem, the visuals are fairly important and the video will probably be the best way to consume it. |

I'll get around to reading the paper maybe sometime before the video comes out. I skipped to the end and was not disappointed:
“Robustness”. BoVeX no longer crashes programs like Adobe Acrobat that expect the PDFs to be “correct.” LOL!!
Keep up the good work :) |
| devastated there was no livestream this year, but at least there's a tom7 video to look forward to |
Sorry! The online presence was weak this year (see e.g. website), which is a bit sad to me since we do get a lot of submissions from outside CMU these days. The conference did happen, though, and it seemed pretty healthy.
I am working on a video and it will be better than my SIGBOVIK talk was. But now that there are no deadlines I am taking my time (: |
| The video gives a great intuition, even before you read the paper. |
| YOU DON'T MISS!! Thanks for the great post and looking forward to the video. These long-form, funny-yet-educational project blog posts really do it for me. Do you know anyone else that makes content like this? |
