Do whatever you can to tell the author that you liked their book, if you indeed did. For those of us who aren't ever going to make a living at this, good reviews are the best thing we can reasonably expect to happen when it comes to our writing. I had a coworker tell me today she read Girl on the Moon and was "enthralled" and she's on book 2 now. It really made my day. #writing #WritingCommunity
Thread about #UnivalentCombinatorics, in the sense of @egbertrijke.
Usually people think of #ConstructiveMathematics as being more restrictive than #ClassicalMathematics.
In this thread, I want to give a concrete example illustrating that constructive mathematics is more general than classical mathematics.

#introduction I'm a Lecturer in #ComputerScience at Australian National University #ANU in #Canberra , researching #logic and #typetheory with occasional #categorytheory , and teaching a big course on introductory #programming via #Haskell , plus a little course on #lambdacalculus . I write about old and new(ish) key papers in my fields at my #blog https://updatedscholar.blogspot.com/ . Not a tweeter, but wanted to see if Mastodon worked for me instead!

Ah, right that makes sense! 🙏

(Tangentially, do you have a link handy on choice and LEM being incompatible with computation? Or is it just so obvious that I reveal the depths of my ignorance just by asking? 😁)
Why cubical type theory, and why cubical Agda?
The discussion in this thread is going to be a bit technical in several fronts. Sorry.
I was meaning to write this for a while, but this discussion motivated me to write this now:

First one I've seen :)
@hacks4pancakes As an introvert with social anxiety, I actually find it much easier to do this in an online setting than iRL. I can simply mute the social channels and only check them & participate when I have the social energy for it while in the office it was much harder to avoid burning out socially. One of the many reasons I have been working remotely for the last 14 Years and much happier with it.
I wish I could reach the correct audience to suggest to that, if you are going to work full time remote, especially for a mostly remote company for the first time, it is absolutely crucial that you learn how people communicate and actively participate in it. Not just how work information is disseminated. Join your “random” and hobby Teams or Slack channels. Meet people not on your direct team. Join a social group if your company sponsors one you find interesting. It indeed takes effort as an introvert - but while working remote you are not building relationships organically like in an office, at all. Those work relationships are important to getting stuff done in business, emotionally feeling part of a team and mission, and staying mentally healthy. We spend a big chunk of our lives working!
Over the last 5 years of working and managing a team FT remote, this social interactivity is one of the top indicators I’ve observed of whether someone will succeed and be balanced and happy, long term - or whether they will burn out and be left behind. The people who often vanish the fastest never chatted except when prompted to do so for business, never turned their camera on, nor set a profile image.
I’m not telling you to step way outside your comfort zone. I’m not saying there aren’t situations where it’s necessary to turn off the camera. I’m not saying you’ll automatically fail if you never socialize. I’m just giving you some advice based on hard life lessons of watching people thrive versus be unhappy.
