Yeah I am collaborating directly with the primary author...but I think you might be right I would have gotten more helpful advice for the graduate student who spent like a year writing this. Good advice-I'll keep it in mind for future

I am not really sure I agree. At least in my part of CS in the united states arxiv/google scholar are pretty omnipresent. Thank you for pointing me towards a new resource.

I mean he also pokes fun at his children, himself, and posted a rap video about theoretical computer science on his blog. His blog is not exactly the Annals here... I think he is more than welcome to write about whatever he damn pleases and

I mean...you can't make math simpler. like...math is math. you can create resources that make it easier to teach math (and for the record high quality textbooks on AI/ML ABOUND). I think you want software and libraries so you can

I mis-speak constantly. However..on further reflection you are probably right. We should ALL care..but the only people who do care in actuality will probably be the locals and the ever stalwart Surfrider foundation

Honestly there have been efforts to bring north korea back into the fold (in regards to keep fanning the flames)..see the Sunshine Policy see the Kaesong Industrial Region see the Six-Party Talks. These have been largely ineffective and in

North Korea is erratic but I don't think it is erratic enough to be willing to turned into glass when it could otherwise keep doing its thing. The regime is not suicidal ( I think...)
