Eight kernels. Zero excuses.
The Kernel & the Jacket
For Terence Tao’s love of proof and Jensen Huang’s love of compute. The imaginary jacket wants speed. The imaginary mathematician wants it to be right. You have to satisfy both.
A small game for large brains.
Clear eight rooms by building answers, arranging bits, and catching mathematical traps. No timer. The proof gets the last word. Start with 800 points; an incorrect check costs 10.
0/8 verified rooms · 800 points
Q.E.D. / Quite entertaining, definitely.
Proof accepted. Jacket impressed.
You kept every bit, counted every matching, and refused to confuse a fast answer with a correct one. Tao gets the proof. Huang gets the throughput. You get points and the suspicious honor of being Kashogi’s Minister of Tiny Computations.
These browser puzzles are miniatures of all eight Lean Kernel Challenge tasks. They do not run Lean or verify universal theorems; scores are game points, not official instruction counts. The challenge requires total, kernel-reducible algorithms with universal proofs. Its eight worked examples inspire the notebooks and may exceed competition limits. These are not claims of winning solutions.
