12:50 END OF CONFERENCE
Matteo Capucci (he/him) (Oct 24 2022 at 12:59):Not to complain, but I'm curious: why is it happening over a weekend?
John Baez (Oct 24 2022 at 17:35):I guess you should ask Rick Blute. I guess they were traditionally held on weekends, maybe so people could drive to them and not skip work.
(I have nothing to do with this conference; I just saw it being announced somewhere and thought it would be good to announce it here.)
