performance degrades for code generation and code summarization on user software. On the bright side, as few as just 8 examples from that software project can help substantially. A thread:
I am genuinely jealous of researchers who find the current state of AI/LLMs inspiring, I have never had a harder time with that myself. Every other paper I read, inadvertently my first reaction is "THAT is novel?" Anyway, I've had a hard couple of weeks, end of rant :D

NAACL arxiv deadline is Nov 15, EMNLP video deadline is Nov 12. NAACL submission deadline is Dec 15, and the EMNLP conference is Dec 6-10. Both within ACL, surely those could be streamlined better and spaced out a little more?

It appears, we have shorter attention span not just individually, but as a society as well - GPT-5 is trending just 24 hours after the release of GPT-4.

I want to add another recent but very important point. Armenia has a non-violent government, and since recently also a democratic government. Even the most progressive of us do not agree to subjecting Armenians to the horrors of dictatorship that AZ subjects its own citizens to.

Not everyone has to be political and voice opinions or jump in to solve social problem. Some people prefer to do what they are doing - research, and leave activism to activists, and that should be okay too.

Right after the revolution, Pashinyan was personally giving away leaflets in the subway, and a woman tore it and threw into his face. I remember how weirdly proud I felt, because we were so clearly no longer the country of murdering for "privet, Rob". And now, this.

This is true. While I had little trust in Arm govt during the 2016 war, I am absolutely confident that the government is being as transparent as is allowable during wartime today. I am honestly surprised that Azeris have so little scepticism for their authoritarian govt.

Anyone knows how many papers will ICLR'24 reviewers be expected to review? That's a dealbreaker that should be included in the reviewer invitation, lol
A few weeks ago I remember being very upset about the number of meetings I had to take part in "because our meetings are utterly unproductive and I waste 40%-50% of my working time there". Look at me now! Day 10 of the quarantine and online meetings are the highlights of my day!

You discuss the matter as if it is new. But haven't we seen it already when they pushed a deadline for protests in the US, whereas a year before they had no problem holding a conference right amid protests in Hong Kong AND requiring authors to show up in person to the conference.

Let's go further and actively discourage including experiments with paid APIs, those APIs change constantly, in ways that are not disclosed, and without prior notice, how is it scientific to include them? Those results are not reproducible by the time the paper sees light 🤷
Can we, as a research community, agree that papers with experiments exclusively on open-source models (no API use) are fully valid? So tired of seeing reviewers asking for results on newer LLM APIs as if budget constraints don't exist. If we truly value open source.

The person writing this is exhausted too, heartbroken, their world shattered. Yet you don't think they deserve compassion to not call them dumb and bigot.
Friends! While you are terrified of spotting your missing relatives as the new target of torture and executions of Armenian PoWs in videos routinely posted to Instagram and TIktok by AZE soldiers, Farid here has been holding his breath waiting for your gratitude!
Azerbaijan allowed humanitarian cargo to be delivered to Armenians thru Ganja city, which was bombed by ARM army. AZE extended withdrawal of Armenians from Kelbajar for 10 days. No a single 'thanks', not mentioning in Armenian press.

The funny thing is that even after all that, Grubhub, Doordash and Uber Eats are still losing money, they lose hundreds of millions of dollars in a quarter. So their model does not work for the restaurants, but neither does it for themselves.

How can pomegranates be part of "cultural heritage"? They have been around since the bronze age, they are not inherited from any culture. So here we're talking purely about your phony "traditional" festival and how Azerbaijan buys its way into UNESCO heritage lists.
@AnimaAnandkumar
@sarameghanbeery
Well, maybe we should not call them "leaders" then, they are researchers, they got famous for their research, not their political or inclusive opinions. I feel it is unfair to put blame or expectations on them now for anything else but their research.
@Zinvor
As a suggestion, instead of putting a warning for graphic content, why not do it and include the video in the second tweet of the thread, so it's not auto-played

Yep, not being inspired is not a good look for researchers... so I am worried this tweet has now reached a much wider audience than my usual posts 🤣

this was the same guy who claimed that armenians are "faking" ancient cross-stones and "planting" them, what level of reasoning did you expect from him
This is a great point - I have learnt a few years ago to create multiple inboxes in Gmail, particularly, one titled "respond" - for things that are action items/need my attention, but can wait or I'm not ready to deal with right now. This way things also don't get
Here's a productivity technique I've been using for a month and has worked really well. It reduces distraction, focuses effort, and sets targets. It assumes most of your tasks accumulate as emails. I'll explain it in a short thread. ↵
@taiyasaki
Great article, I actually totally agree, though if you replace "novel" with "beautiful" I'd still stand by what I wrote. Need to try very hard to focus on beauty in the current state of research, and filter out the hussle/hacking-culture taken to the extreme...

Это не про то, что ферм нет в Армении, а про то, что нет ферм-партнеров, в странах, где кофе растет. То есть каждый раз покупают разное кофе у разных ферм, и вкус и качество кофе, получается, меняются из месяца в месяц.
@babayevsky
Don't you see it? "Learning when rayons were <occupied>" is not a genuine reason to be "passionate". And everything Cavid mentioned was designed to make Karabakh look like part of AZE history, which it isn't and it wasn't.

@hragv
You didn't need to worry, you have no heritage. You will just continue appropriating our heritage and claim it as yours trying to write your alternative "history".
This is exactly how everyone should feel if you value human rights and freedom. You don't need to be Armenian to look at facts and see how wrong this war is. You don't need to be Armenian to be empathetic and compassionate for the human and cultural losses we are suffering.
I’m not even Armenian but I’m so affected by what’s going on. War crimes are being committed. Civilians and brave soldiers are dying. The world is staying silent and those of us who do speak up are constantly harassed online.

Congrats to me on my first rejected paper, may there be many more! The reviewers seemed infuriated by me reporting accuracy for a perfectly balanced dataset instead of precision-recall, lol, because "[P-R] are well-known and well-understood."

I think this is just a perfect demonstration, of how neither side understands the other. "It's easy to be nationalist from afar" - my first reaction was "are you freaking sure?" Are you sure it isn't easier to just assimilate and abandon your heritage?

Happy Saturday morning, the reviews for your paper are now available, and you have 4 days to respond! Hope you didn't have anything fun planned for the holidays 🎈
Not this particular case, but in my batch a reviewer who rated a paper 5 (borderline accept), privately insisted on rejection because the paper did not have a "clear advocate", the paper had another 5 and a 6 (and a 3). So, neither trust the scores nor the score-givers, I guess
Dear colleagues, I rarely say anything about review process publicly, but I do have a genuine question to ask. We have a
#NeurIPS2023
submission with all positive scores, certainly not a spotlight/oral paper, but all scores fall in {5, 6, 7}.

Maybe it's because I haven't had to review a paper fully written by chatgpt or I haven't received a chatgpt review myself, but since a lot of us are working on improving LLMs in one way or another - isn't it somewhat hypocritical to frown upon their use inside the community?
