Bookshop.org: Buy books online. Support local bookstores. A better way to buy books online. Every purchase financially supports local independent bookstores.

My preorder for this on bookshop.org UK was cancelled, any particular reason or should I preorder somewhere else?

But don't you have to act shocked and angered lest someone accuses you of traitorous emotions?

Time to start a bluesky Christmas fight: Most over-rated and under-rated cuisine?

For me:
Over-rated: French
Under-rated (globally): Mexican
Under-rated (US specifically): Indonesian

Many of the most passionate Bayes verses frequentist debates are not between I and II or III and IV but rather I and IV. People are often excited more about the freedom to work with better models than having uncertainty quantification.

"There is no excuse for what’s happening in Gaza.

This tragedy must end now, immediately and decisively.

Every political hesitation, every attempt at justification of the horrors being committed under international watch, will forever be judged as a collective failure to preserve humanity in war.”

"There is no excuse for what’s happening in Gaza. This tragedy must end now, immediately and decisively. Every political hesitation, every attempt at justification of the horrors being committed under international watch, will forever be judged as a collective failure to preserve humanity in war.”

Gaza | The scale of human suffering and the stripping of human dignity have long exceeded every acceptable standard, both legal and moral.

This tragedy must end now.

Computer-vision research powers surveillance technology - Nature An analysis of research papers and citing patents indicates the extensive ties between computer-vision research and surveillance.

New paper hot off the press www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We analysed over 40,000 computer vision papers from CVPR (the longest standing CV conf) & associated patents tracing pathways from research to application. We found that 90% of papers & 86% of downstream patents power surveillance

Couldn't agree with this more. They also don't have particularly good editorial oversight, as @stephenkb.bsky.social has pointed out for BBC news.

The open access movement has been captured by the publishers, and the journal system is worse than ever. Suggestions like open review do nothing to make research or peer review better, nothing to break the bullshit of rewarding people for simply publishing, right or wrong.

Where is our courage?
