  1. @mjog I am in town tomorrow but am flying out at 7pm. Maybe catch you in Canberra for the summer school?
  2. Any Sydney-siders near Haymarket want to catch up for a quick beer after dinner?
  3. Good morning Sydney. I thought it was supposed to be hot here?
  4. @DrMathochist That also might explain why I was asleep when you tweeted that.
  5. That's work over for the day. Now it's time to pack for an 8am Sydney-bound flight for a very quick two day visit.
  6. @bradfordcross #thatisonehellofalongtagyouareusingthere
  7. @michiexile ... and often cryptically. If only there was an iambic pentameter front-end.
  8. Watching Samson & Delilah.
  9. @filterfish Kind of like trying to tie both your hands behind your back?
  10. @angelastengel No, it's a partly overcast 28° with a strong breeze. Very pleasant really.
  11. Lawn mown.
  12. @JohnDCook Indeed. And what's stranger is that, unlike those examples, the conjecture is explicitly for finite families of finite sets.
  13. @JohnDCook It gets more surprising the more you think about it. The only place any subtlety can live is in the notion of union-closed.
  14. @JohnDCook @lizardbill One of my favourite simple-but-hard problems is the Union-Closed Sets Conjecture: http://bit.ly/8ROjK2
  15. Sunday morning at the local park. http://yfrog.com/au7e5j
  16. Off to eat expensive (and hopefully tasty) French food to celebrate my wedding anniversary. Oh, and my wife's too. ;)
  17. @filterfish Hacker News seems to be full of all the like-minded Reddit refugees. http://news.ycombinator.com
  18. Great 3d visualisation of 5 years of graffiti on the wall outside Gainsbourg's home: http://blog.niceproduce.com... (via @brendam)
  19. @ChrisDiehl I'd also recommend dokuwiki. I used it as the basis for the ICML discussion site: http://conflate.net/icml Wikidot is also good
  20. Comic on the type of thing railed against in the article on math conferences that @lemire posted the other day: http://abstrusegoose.com/211
