cjdenial I started scheduling a period of rest after my synchronous class sessions, and there is nothing sweeter than my calendar notification popping up with the instruction "rest." It is blissful.

annargrs The virtual @emnlp2020 and @coling2020 will be organized rather differently, so we'll be able to compare and see what works better. In particular, EMNLP will have sessions specifically targeting Asia/Europe/Americas, while COLING will have a shorter conference day. twitter.com/coling2020/sta…
ojahnn super excited about the idea of attending 97 workshops simultaneously at the next online conference, because spatial constraints were the only reason we haven't been having 97 concurrent workshops in the past.

EP_Agriculture #FutureofCAP: MEPs rejected all proposals to reserve meat-related names for products containing meat. No change for plant-based products & names they currently use when being sold. Final #EPlenary vote on #CAPreform later today.
random_walker There's a different concept from behavioral economics that explains why we so often quit just before completing a project: hyperbolic discounting. We focus too much on the short term pain of finishing and too little on the sustained long term gain from releasing the project.
random_walker The sunk cost fallacy fallacy is when you put a lot of time into a project, find your motivation running out right before you get to the finish line, and tell yourself that because of the sunk cost fallacy the rational decision is to quit.
ojahnn Of course the results were both terrible and completely useless, but seeing a super bad draft of the first text seemed to help them get inspired for how the text should read *instead*.
ojahnn My spouse has been working on a new project for maybe a week, and today they reached the point where there was literally nothing else to do to procrastinate writing the texts for the website..... so I suggested they just write a GPT-2 prompt and see what the model spits out.

firefoxx66 Then, after being rescued 5 times & half-vacuuming the floor, Roomba wheels back into its little stand and plays itself a victory song like it's just landed a Ryanair flight 🤷🏻♀️
firefoxx66 Roomba & I have a strained relationship at times. I bought it second-hand & I think it has abandonment issues
Me: *pointing* I would actually really appreciate it if you'd do the kitchen floor now please
Roomba: *heads off to vacuum random corner by front door for the 17th time*
firefoxx66 Good news - I have found the Roomba. It made itself a little nest under a low cupboard, behind some boxes, & over some thick cables (didn't know it could crawl over those). It now has a dead battery & is being grumpy at me (in French).
firefoxx66 I've lost my vacuum cleaner.
I set the Roomba going on its little job & a little while later I heard it give its musical "I'm stuck!" alarm (in French, as I can't figure out how to change the language).
....And I can't find it 🙃🤦🏻♀️

haekelschwein Wisst ihr noch, damals in der Schule? Man bekam eine schlecht benotete Klausur zurück und sagte der Lehrkraft: „Sie mögen es anders sehen, aber was ich schrieb, war meine Meinung.“ Sofort wurde die Note in eine 1+ geändert, wegen der Meinungsfreiheit. Das war immer schön.

EmmaSManning fascinated to notice that NaNoWriMo's character questionnaire doesn't include any questions about the character's gender or pronouns! Is it just assumed writers will know that about their characters without being asked?
