The entire site hosting this is hilarious - it appears to be an April Fools parody of an academic tech conference and it's very well executed. "Submissions are double blind and author names must be removed. On the published copy, authors must be ordered by descending number of vowels."

Thanks- I initially thought this was hosted on arxiv (it's on a MIT server). This paper from the same conference also looks good: http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/veryconference-paper5.pdf http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/veryconference-paper5.pdf "Locally Bijective, Non-Noetherian, Ultra-Liouville Random Variables and Parabolic Lie Theory" "Good" as in "it was probably generated by an LSTM RNN". Full papers listing here: http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/ http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/ And main conference page: http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/ http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/ For the benefit of other July fools like me :0 P.S. This one is of special interest to me: Evident Logic, a logic programming language based on a new logic, made special by "not the rules that it has, but the rules it lacks, so we wish the reader good luck in figuring that out": http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/veryconference-paper8.pdf http://sigtbd.csail.mit.edu/pubs/veryconference-paper8.pdf

Any interpersonal conflicts of interest must be declared in the form of a passive aggressive email sent to the PC chair. In the event an interpersonal conflict of interest is declared, the validity of the interpersonal conflict of interest will be determined by the PC. The best conflict of interest emails will be anonymized and includeed in the conference proceedings. If you are using LaTeX to typeset your paper, then we strongly suggest that you use this LaTeX class file (with the ‘sigtbd’ class option) and template. If you are using Microsoft Word, we recommend you give up on following any of the formatting requirements and submit in whatever format you please.
