crazybilly @b0rk Follow-up: I don't always know The Main Point when I start (often, I start off wrong about what the Main Point is). Don't let this stop you from writing - write the thing, THEN when you're done, re-write that 1st paragraph to put the (now revealed) Main Point in the headline.

teh_aSak So sehr das Urteil des Bundesverfassungsgerichts, das die Befugnisse des BND einschränkt, zu begrüßen ist, darf es nicht davon ablenken, dass ein Geheimdienst keiner effektiven demokratischen Kontrolle unterliegen kann und wie der Verfassungsschutz abgeschafft werden sollte.

annargrs Can't express how proud I am to see this happen. Dear folks who contributed to the rants about peer reviews in April: thank you all so much!

This does not guarantee that would follow the rules, but at least the authors would have a better chance in rebuttals. twitter.com/emnlp2020/stat…

emnlp2020 New blog post on reviewing policies!

Special focus on spurious reviews: this time no paper should be rejected primarily for not beating SOTA, for non-English work, for being a resource paper, etc. /1 pic.twitter.com/dgvjhBm2uI

random_walker Manipulative sales practices have been around forever. But the online environment is different. In particular, user interfaces that optimize clicks using A/B testing and machine learning may gravitate toward deception even if that's not the designer's intent!

random_walker It's the age of dark patterns. In a new paper, we show how they emerged from three decades-long trends, highlight what's new and why it's deeply problematic, and exhort designers to do better.

RationalDis Just a reminder that the concept of "The Red Pill" was created by two Trans women in a movie about people who adopt new names as they transcend their physical bodies & discover their true identities & potential in the face of an oppressive hierarchical system pic.twitter.com/1jFtWT7PeR
