You may have received an email today, asking you to split your NeurIPS paper into two separate PDFs: one "main" paper (~9 pages + refs) and another "supplement". Why are we doing this still? Sign this petition to stop this practice forms.gle/h3BuVvhMYgc7hv…

@roydanroy @percyliang ICML doesn’t do this, Neurips should catch up!
@roydanroy Because don't otherwise take time to write good, short and concise papers?
@roydanroy Its a cabal to slow down the pace of AI devleopment
@roydanroy I support the "one file" proposal, but I'm not sure about the size question. I don't usually check the size of files, but it is painful if a paper doesn't download or render quickly. Any suggestions about how to answer?
@roydanroy Do they even physically print the proceedings anymore?
@roydanroy Note that the file size could be larger for papers that have supplemental videos or lots of figures of high resolution images to show additional results
@roydanroy Why are we dong it? Cargo cult practices...
