U3 (aka final year) mathematics student at McGill University. I work part-time as an algorithms developer at Lisplogics.
Currently (last updated 2024-11-09):
- Doing a bachelor's thesis this semester, the topic is Erdos's conjecture that any triangle-free graph can be made bipartite by removing at most \(n^2/25\) edges
- Learning Japanese. Used to be big on Anki (with this anki deck), but now I just spend my time on my university Japanese course (which uses Nakama 2 as its textbook). Check out the library (navbar) to see some of the Japanese learning resources I've amassed. I started learning Japanese because of Tokimeki Memorial.
- I want to start working on an English patch for the Sega Saturn version of Tokimeki Memorial (i.e. the "Forever With You" version). If you have any info on existing patches, let me know on twitter dms or email. Currently only aware of this, of which I last tested the version released in Sept 2023 which crashed after doing the first few activities. It has apparently been recently updated! It does seem like a lot of work, and maybe making this texthooker project work is a better use of my time.
- My nootropics stack right now is: Pocari Sweat, nose strips, being happy
Things I am interested in hearing about:
Ways to make the future feel more visceral/real, opportunities to go slay the Demon King, well-made dating sims (maybe with a stat mechanic?), ambient/field recordings/experimental/instrumental hip-hop music, local Montreal scenes of those, good unique anime (if you ctrl-F "anime" on Library you can see what I like), good unique movies/books, non-slop contemporary Japanese literature, better/out-there language learning methods/applications (with a focus on Japanese)
Things I've done in reverse chronological order:
- Won CodeJam 2023 (see projects page)
- Worked on verified computing for finding zeroes of finite-dimensional projections of Swift-Hohenberg under Jean-Philippe Lessard during Summer 2023, with a SURA award
- Competed at the ICPC North American Championship (NAC) in 2023 and 2024 in Florida with my teammates Alex WP and Josh Goldman
