Taught a bonus lecture for a course on Algorithms for NP-hard Problems today. Material won't be on the exam, so technically, this lecture was "just for fun".

Quite some pressure to make coming to class on Friday morning 8:45am worth it for a gang of 20-year-olds.

Students were a hoot. They were listening actively and participating. Great to meet them. Had a blast 🙂

Afterwards, some of them thanked me for the "really great lecture" 🥺

Ab-so-lute-ly exhausted now.
