They passed their leaves to others, and received a new set; if they agreedโ fold onceโ if they did not โ crumple โem up!

Oasis Lunch Talks are back! @srirachanikorn.bsky.social starts the semester with a great talk about nostalgia and video games, talking all things nostos and algos. Got a lot of great ideas from this that I now need to push aside so I can focus on the paper at hand ๐
