The paper decisions for the ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms (SODA26). SODA is undoubtedly the largest and among the most prestigious conferences in theoretical computer science. As co-chairs, Kasper and I feel both happy and relieved.

It was a pleasure to have Sofya Raskhodnikova as the TCS 4 All Inspiration Speaker at STOC 2025. It brought back many memories of those early days of TCS 4 All when Sofya, Virginia, and I spent long hours discussing how to better support students from underrepresented backgrounds in TCS.

The SODA 2026 deadline is in less than a month now. Hope you have the last theorem sorted out and the paper writing is going well. Kasper @kasperglarsen.bsky.social and I cannot wait to see all your awesome submissions.

A huge thanks to TCS For All, and the tireless work they do for Theoretical #ComputerScience – making sure all students get to attend and feel welcome at TCS conferences. (Travel support for #FOCS2025 will be advertised soon, prior to paper notifications and the opening of the registration system.)

This year TCS for All Inspiration talk will be given by Sofya Raskhodnikova, Boston University on June 27th at our STOC 2025 TCS for All Meeting. Join us. We are relocating the TCS for All Rising Star Workshop to FOCS 2025 this year. Stay tuned. SIGACT.org/tcsforall/ #stoc2025 @ccanonne.github.io

The SODA'26 Call for Papers and submission server is now online! Deadline July 14 AOE. Please share and submit your awesome work! Look very much forward to co-chairing the program committee with Barna Saha @barnacs.bsky.social and the 82 other amazing PC members. www.siam.org/conferences-...
