Derandomizing BBQ

An addendum to my last post: a few days ago, I got an email with the subject line “BBQ,…”

“Awesome!” I thought. “Free food! Where?”

But no, the email was from someone who had read one of my papers, and who wanted references for the strange, unfamiliar terms that littered the text — terms like “BBP” and “BBQ.” I wasn’t sure what to tell him, except that the class BBQ contains BYOB and is conjectured to be incomparable with BLT.

    All I can say is “LOL”!

    Although, I can sympathize… I went to my first Graduate Students Association (GSA) meeting (I’m the rep for the Psych department), and I was totally lost in all the acronyms.
