I was a very curious kid. I liked telescopes because I wanted to look into space. I liked microscopes because I wanted to look at small things. And I always loved building things.
I think that’s why I love theoretical computer science.
Professor Mukund and I have spent many hours on the whiteboard making algorithms. Like, actually making them. We’re not making them with wood. But we’re making them with numbers, ratios and relations. We’re making them with our brains.
