Brian GettlerHuh. First time I've seen this. A student I've written for in the past is applying to a master's program. Along with the usual cover letter, writing sample, etc., applicants are required them to submit two letters of recommendation themselves.Is this a thing? I mean, I trust this particular student, but running admissions this way would seem to make any recommendations the committee receives totally useless.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#academia</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/AcademicChatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicChatter</a>

WarrenOk, someone more familiar with graph theory tell me how to compute a minimum weight perfect matching on a complete graph with even-number of vertices? Or at least point me to a resource? It's all either left as an exercise to the reader, extremely complex algorithms (Blossom or something?), or weird libraries, where apparently if I use it on complex graphs it's not necessary, but they then point me to even more complex papers. Thought I had it solved but now it's returning a matching that's too small. <a href="https://shonk.mizah.xyz/tags/graphtheory" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#graphtheory</a> <a href="https://shonk.mizah.xyz/tags/computerscience" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#computerscience</a> <a href="https://shonk.mizah.xyz/tags/academia" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#academia</a>
