I am immensely honoured that yesterday at #popl23 the Views paper has been names the “Most Influential Paper from POPL’13”. I have always loved POPL, and to receive this honour is truly amazing.

@codydroux @ZachWeiner This is just my intuition, and if P=NP then somehow the space of 3SAT mazes is kind of regular. But maybe there are enough instances that are different in enough subtle ways that any P-time compass would sometimes be wrong.
English

@codydroux @ZachWeiner True, but that's not the problem I'm thinking of. Suppose the maze is a propositional formula, and each branch is a choice in assigning each propositional variable. Solving the maze is finding a satisfying assignment. (NP-complete for 3SAT.)
English

@ZachWeiner (Of course, it's more complicated than that, because this basically assumes that the maze itself can be coded polynomially in n, which is probably not true in general. But there are still a lot of mazes.)
English

@ZachWeiner So somehow you'd be able to figure out the path in a deterministic way, faster than trying all exits, in a way that works no matter which path the exit is on.
