Personal

I hate driving (especially in Paris).
I can have migraines if you talk about too difficult things for a too long time.

Work

It seems that I don’t get along with Category Theory
I work with Windows 10 and Atom.
I’m not good at mathematics but I would like to become better.

Scientific Timeline

1996

I was born as Sambo Boris ENG instead of Boris Sambo ENG (administrative mistake from my parents).

2002

I became the proud creator of a masterpiece called "Tyrannosaurus Rex".

2009

The origin of my discovery of programming was the wish to make RPG (oddly enough, I never figured out how to actually make one).

2014

I got refused for the admission in DUT Informatique (2-years technical degree in Computer Science). Later got admitted with Kostia Chardonnet after several calls and an interview in IUT Montreuil. I then realized the existence of research in Computer Science.

2015

I had a growing interest for the logical side of the Curry-Howard correspondence. I was told that I shouldn't read the "Blind Spot" of Girard if I wanted to learn more about Logic but I read it anyway.

2017

I learnt about the Geometry of Interaction and the Transcendental Syntax. I couldn't understand it but it wanted to know more about it.

2019

I joined the LIPN (team LoVe) as a PhD student with Damiano Mazza and Thomas Seiller in the hope of a better understanding of the link between logic and computation.

2019-Now

Suddenly living during a world-wide pandemic, affecting my work and motivation.

Education

Degree	School	Year
PhD in Computer Science	Université Paris 13	2019–Now
Master Parisien de Recherche en Informatique (MPRI)	Université Paris 7	2018–2019
Master 1 Informatique Recherche (15.5/20, mention B)	Université Paris 7	2017–2018
Licence 3 Informatique (Rang 2, Rang 1, mention TB)	Université Paris 7	2016–2017
DUT Informatique (Rang 1)	IUT de Montreuil	2014–2016
Baccalauréat Technologique STI2D (Mention B)	Lycée Dorian	2011–2014

Note that I didn’t have a scientific/mathematical education but rather a technical one. I studied electronics and sustainable development (please tell me if you understand how they can be related) for the “baccalauréat STID2”. The DUT Informatique is a 2-years technical degree in IT. I had 50% of general Computer Science and 50% of secondary classes (communication, economics, management, mathematics, French law, accounting and more).

I didn’t like the MPRI. But actually, I have almost no memory of what happened during the MPRI. I think they brainwashed me with Category Theory.
