    Hi, It sounds that its not only the fact of being alone that is difficult, but that you are going through changes. You were used to a certain way of viewing life and maybe youself …

    Second that. There were articles a year or two ago about TVs trying to connect to any open Wi-Fi they can find, without you asking them. But hopefully LG wouldn’t go that far.

    most papers have slides with audio, and some, including the awards ones will have short frontal talks. this will be released at some point after the conference, but right now looks…

    This isn't about me though, no point in making this personal. I'm just trying to understand what's interesting about this picture. You are saying that just because nobody took that…

    A lot of logistics, as mentioned. If you’d like to explain what’s in there beyond that, I’ll be glad to hear.

    Care to explain? I actually do take pictures with a camera from time to time. Again, this was staged. Also, when Tom Cruise performed his own stunts in Mission Impossible, that val…

    Tbh, do not quite get the excitement around this picture. It was staged, and the stunt doesn’t appear to be particularly complex. A lot of logistics, sure. But seems like all there…

    Is there a way to listen to the actual content? This is only a brief summary of the radio show.

    you mean Pocket? I was wondering how well the search there works. Turns out it is possible to search the pages themselves, but only with paid subscription. In the free version it o…

    This is funny, because I recently descided to try Pocket, owned by Mozilla, and it adds >?utm_source=pocket_saves to all saved links.

    Do you mean the boosting graphs in Fig. 1, 4 of that paper? It looks though that they have a double descent on the train set too, so it might not be the same phenomenon. Neverthele…

    This is like a workshop at a usual conference, no proceedings, right?

    I haven't followed the original debate, so not sure if this was a part of the argument against LeCun, but it could be: The issue is LeCun makes an argument about fundamental resear…

    Isn't it strange that the periods mentioned are integer multiples of days ? Don't known much about astronomy, but day as a unit of time is just a constant specific to our particula…

    Not sure about that specific function. But the circle of ideas to which this function belongs can be loosely described as "how do we deal with non-smooth objects"? How do we constr…

    Not a standard source for algebraists, but Percy Diaconis's book, mentioned in other comments, is an excellent introduction. Also contains applications in probability.

    This is of course just a hyperbole, especially in its original context. For one thing, people routinely use representation theory to study groups of matrices . That is, represent t…

    Well, it depends. Some people would say, justly I think, the way to come at Fourier transform is as a commutative representation theory.

    Data like this could (or might have the potential to) be used by the authorities to determine in which areas to test more. But otherwise it shouldn't send people anywhere, I don't …

    Not a big fan of the idea of assigning credit to individual features, but as far as this idea goes, this seems like a very useful improvement. The blog mentions an evaluation on so…

    As an aside, it seems you're interested in speech recognition, or speech to text, not voice recognition. Voice recognition is a different problem, where the particular speaker need…

    Not that I know of. But its seems a few other conferences use OpenReview, besides ICLR. UAI for example.

    Some comments seem to miss the point that reviews will be published without naming the reviewers (unless they want to), and then only for accepted papers. So for the reviewer this …
