I really dislike the whole 'AI scientist' trend, which is a just a push for scientists to publish always more and will just lead to more burnouts and low-quality studies. Also, we already don't have time to read everythings that's published, it will just create more noise

I have been guilty of writing this in papers before knowing better - I wonder if the IEEE would accept an erratum...

Après qu'il parle d'extrême droite ça me dérange pas tellement parce que ça met les néonazis, le RN et lui-même dans le même panier, où est effectivement leur place.

Aussi parce qu'il existe des garde-fous contre les décisions du peuple lui même, qui permettent d'éviter à la majorité d'imposer sa loi à des minorités. Mais ça la droite ne l'acceptera jamais

Anyone slightly left leaning and in any position to influence Labour was purged years ago by Starmerites - the party will just roll out the red carpet for Reform, like Macron has been doing for Le Pen, or Scholz for the AfD. We have to organise within grassroot orgs, nothing to expect from the top

Not in the US but I would encourage you to get in contact with your local trade union(s) and get everyone around you to do the same. They have structures in place to organise and fight back. Solidarity from across the Atlantic

As a Frenchman living in the UK, I'm afraid you have quite an idealised vision of what France is, probably more in line with what it was ~40 yrs ago. The media landscape in France today is much more in line with what it is in the UK, although there are thankfully some good independent outlets

There is a similar story about Grothendieck, who studied with Dieudonné and Schwartz. They presented his class with a list of 14 open questions. They thought that half-solving any of them would make a good PhD thesis, he solved all of them in a few months

Ce thread résonne énormément avec moi. J'ai enchaîné blessures de l'épaule et commotion cérébrale (sans compter les nombreux maux de crane post-sparring) à cause d'un mauvais coach de boxe viriliste qui exploitait notre jeunesse et inexpérience.

Not sure the comparison is to their advantage for the poster sessions of some conferences!

C'est pas pour remuer le couteau dans la plaie mais à la fac on reçoit aussi des chocolats... Il y a quelque chose qui ne va pas dans le secondaire

C'est sur. Par ailleurs je me demande comment le Brexit a change la sociologie de ces personnes, avec les frais d'inscription qui ont quasiment triple et les loyers qui explosent depuis la fin des confinements
