isthmus: <3

@Rucknium[m] main obstacle right now is figuring out how to pay for the trip. :- P

Personally, money is tight and I didn't budget for any travel this winter (and everything in CA is expensive). I might be able to convince my company to sponsor the trip, but it's a bit of a stretch since I'd be presenting strictly personal research

isthmus: Let's submit now. Then later do a CCS or a small donation effort to pay for the trip.

This is good exposure for MRL, plus get to network with others in the space

i think the community would support a CCS to present XMR research at a respected conference. they might even buy you a nice dinner to say thanks. i'll pay for chips - at least.

Ill teach you how to make a prison meal from some ramen noodles and a pack of cheetos so you can snack on the road

setvin[m]: i hope that doesn't involve peeing into the ramen pot to cook the noodles

setvin[m]: i can help with that, i am somewhat an expert when it comes to instant ramen noodles

If anyone can see any critical flaws with the premise I would appreciate the feedback before any donations are made
