I just made big updates to my list of CGT Meetings: https://kyleburke.info/CGTMeetings.php
* Thanks to Koki Suetsugu, I added a bunch of links to Japanese CGT events that I was ignorant of.
* I added a bit more of an explanation up top as to what I consider "counts" for the list.
* I added an acronym legend up top.

There are a TON more meetings on there now. #CombinatorialGames

The third and final day of #CGTC 5 is in the books. We had both research talks as well as talks about different #CombinatorialGames texts that maybe not everyone knew about. Here are my summaries: https://combinatorialgametheory.blogspot.com/2025/02/cgtc-5-day-three-talks.html

I miss everyone already!

I didn't get the talk summaries out last night due to the #CGTC conference dinner, but I just finished the post: https://combinatorialgametheory.blogspot.com/2025/02/cgtc-5-day-two-talks.html

I got stuck in a bathroom stall today at #CGTC. Best pun: I had a PeeSPACE-hard problem.

This is a joke, but not a lie.

If you see a door handle like these photos, you push like so to release the lock.

Today was Day 1 of the Combinatorial Game Theory Colloquium (#CGTC) 5 talks! They were excellent! Want to find out why Carlos said: "I need to destroy these moons"? Here are my summaries:

Last night I heard a talk about Lewis Carroll's math exploits: https://combinatorialgametheory.blogspot.com/2025/01/cgtc-5-day-0-talk.html

One of the floors at the hotel for CGTC is a nimber. A big one too! There are multiple elevators, so with sums, Craig realized *15 must be attainable! #CombinatorialGames

My students are working on a data structures project in class (Java). In between their questions, I'm trying to write something in #prolog for my #ProgrammingLanguages class.

It is very hard to context switch back and forth whenever a students asks me a question! 😅
