@GhassemiPayam @aks1812 Turns out it was a miscommunication with the RA-L submission process. A rather frustrating one, but still a miscommunication.

Our #ICRA2021 paper notification came with a sheet of blank reviews (but wasn't desk rejected). No reviewer content at all. Did this happen to anyone else? PaperPlaza error?

@Randomness We switched to 1password when lastpass was acquired. It's not free, but they are upfront about costs and don't seem to be in it to maximize profit no matter what (at least not yet). This may or may not meet your needs, but $0.02.

@supersat Maybe Australia thought that if a company known for deceit, privacy invasion, and litigation couldn’t handle even the possibility of being slightly regulated, they could do without. I doubt they’re crying.

@Randomness I think your choices are wise. However, when you eventually do find yourself as far along as DC, consider taking a day or two here—only another 45 minutes to 2 hours (depending on the time of day).

OK just to be clear: if I say "we must crack down on serial killers" and you say "why are you launching this thinly veiled personal attack on me" I'm gonna have questions

Sen. Rand Paul on Fox News: "If you read his speech and listen to it carefully, much of it is thinly-veiled innuendo calling us White supremacists, calling us racists, calling us every name in the book, calling us people who don't tell the truth."

Style tips. 1: Unless you are actually on a first-name basis, "Harris" > "Kamala" (unless you consistently use Donald, Mike and Joe). 2: to include a discussion of wardrobe choices in a news article, the correct way to handle it is: maybe don't.

Every time I get a rejection because "Oh, this isn't robotics, it's got all this language stuff," I realize I'm surprised because I thought we were past that. The triumph of hope over experience is a wondrous thing.

Buried in the recent trillion parameter language model paper is how the dataset to train it was created. Any page that contained one of these words was excluded: github.com/LDNOOBW/List-o… Two sample banned words: "twink" and "sex"

@dlowd Possibly the problem has more to do with my brain’s bookshelf contents than my logic.

@dlowd I struggled with the representation and I’m not sure it’s right, so: “and then there was one”

@dlowd The first is “Number the Stars,” arguably cardinality is a stretch there. The circle is from linear temporal logic, and means “true during the next timestep.” (@HadasKressGazit would know if I got it right - my LTL isn’t great.)

I discovered recently that some gmail filters that had been working fine, stopped working fine. They have in fact have been hiding messages, which is rather the precise opposite of fine. I don't know what they "improved" exactly, but if you rely on filters, check them. 😠
