If you’re going to repaint your walls, you first put down a coat of primer to bring them back to neutral. In the same way, “priming” a graph can bring it into a new state that makes it easier to color. quantamagazine.org/the-fastest-wa…

James Cook (left) and Ian Mertz recently devised a new algorithm that solved a specific problem using much less space than anyone thought possible. quantamagazine.org/for-algorithms…

Until now, the only known algorithms for accomplishing some computations required an amount of space roughly proportional to their runtime. The computer scientist Ryan Williams has found a way to do any computation using much less space. quantamagazine.org/for-algorithms…

@danupon just as a studenht: while I can imagine some downsides, they create a nice source to learn how people write reviews/rebuttals in the community. It's easy to learn through OpenReview what reviews/rebuttals look like for ICLR, whereas I don't know about the theory conferences...

Curious what TCS folks think about using OpenReview for conferences like FOCS/STOC/SODA/ICALP—especially to enable public reviews. If you’ve used it as a PC chair, how hard was it to configure to fit our needs compared to HotCRP or EasyChair?

Don’t be shy about reaching out to places you previously turned down—no matter the country. Many schools and labs understand that this is an unusual time and will do their best to accommodate you.

Dear PhD students now regretting taking offers at US schools: If you turned down PhD offers in Canada, but want to rethink that, email the professors who were trying to recruit you. They might be able to pull some strings. Your sane neighbor to the north, Canada

A new strongly poly-time algo for negative-weight shortest paths, O~(m sqrt(n)) time, by my colleague Satish Rao. This is the same problem Bellman-Ford, which we teach to undergrads, solved in O(mn) 70 yrs ago. Just 13 pgs! (*puts on todo list to read*) arxiv.org/abs/2503.22613

The irony is that I kind of agree with Sabine @skdh that most academic research is BS, even in math. This is one of the (many) reasons why I left academia. Yet her economic analysis is dead-wrong, and public funding of mathematical research is wise, justified and cost-effective🧵
Daniel Litt@littmath

Very revealing exchange here IMO. You can judge the quality of the claims yourself but fwiw this seems to me to be an argument against publicly funding public goods in general.
