Toot

@buchholtz The first and only time I met Thomas was in September 2019 for the Workshop on Continuity, Computability, Constructivity (CCC) in Ljubljana. I was only a first-year PhD student and earlier that year at TYPES I had felt a little out of place at times, but Thomas immediately made me feel very comfortable. I have very few pictures of that trip, but the one attached captures exactly what I remember most: that it was very fun to talk with Thomas.

We made some tentative plans for me to visit him, but unfortunately, and partly because of the pandemic, I never followed up on these plans.

We are fortunate that he's left us with great expository notes on categorical logic, and realizability, as well as his book on domain-theoretic semantics of functional programming, all of which I have found very useful.
