sorting
You do sorting all the time. Are there smart ways to organise sub-sorts?

graphs
Programmers work with graphs often (file system, greplin, trees, "graph isomorphism problem" (who cares) ).   But have you ever tried to construct a simpler building-block (basis) with which graphs could be built? Or at least a different building block to build the same old things.

This <10-page paper also uses 𝔰𝔩₂(ℂ), a simple mathematical object you haven’t heard of, but which is a nice lead-in to an area of real mathematics—rep theory—that (1) contains actual insights (1a) that you aren’t using (2) is simple (3) isn’t pretentious.

good combinatorics
Programmers are used to counting boring things. Why not count something more interesting for a change?

I show this paper to college freshmen because
• it’s pictorial
• it’s about an object you mightn’t have considered mathematical
• no calculus, crypto, ML, or pretentious notation
• it’s short
• it’s a classification proof: “How can it be that you know something about _all possible_ X, even the xϵX you haven’t seen yet?’

what has sphere packing to do with compression?
• role of E8 & Leech lattice in optimal codes
• mathematically best compression was never used
• ikosahedron

4345e4bf66 As software becomes more and more integrated in our daily lives, we (#537)
need, more than ever, for the software we write to work reliably in a
wide range of conditions--even, and especially, in unexpected
conditions. This paper, written by Robert Rasmussen from the Jet
Propulsion Laboratory in 2008, documents and explains some fundamental
principles about designing fault tolerant systems as learned through
the hard-won experience of designing Guidance, Navigation, and Control
(GN&C) systems for spacecraft. This paper is rich in principles,
examples, and advice, and has a lot to offer to our industry
generally--even for those of us who don't actively work on software for
spaceships!
