@shortstein What if a high school student submits a paper on a novel architecture or optimization method instead of a "social good" project? No prize for you?
@shortstein Me: A postdoc and no NeurIPS publication yet 🤣 It's like seeing the climbing team kids in the gym warmup on your eight-week long projects all over again.
@shortstein lmao. Just saw another post. A professor complains to and asks his graduate student cannot help his son win even just a high school research competition. The students showed him the list of proposal, full of PhD-level projects. Comments below: "Proxy Wars".
@shortstein High school students with professor parents will be yeah
@shortstein @minilek So this explains why our sales of Algorithms for Toddlers (youtube.com/watch?v=nnLOi3…) suddenly skyrocketed
@shortstein back in my day we called it NIPS, and they gave you tenure at the conference after your presentation
