A huge breakthrough in approximation algorithms was announced recently as asymmetric travelling salesman problem was shown to allow a constant approximation scheme. See discussion in an article by R.J. Lipton. One of the co-authors was Jakub dj3500 Tarnawski. It always pleases me to see competitive programmers achieving heights beyond CP, in academia and "real-life" problems (recall that OpenAI's bot recently beat human players at 1v1 Dota2, with meret and Psyho in the developers team). Congratulations on an outstanding achievement, Jakub!

Wow, thanks! Didn't expect to see such a post... I guess at ICPC you learn to pick a good three-person team!

The video of today's talk by Laszlo is here, for those who are interested.
