With Twitter's change in ownership last week, I'm probably in the clear to talk about the most unethical thing I was asked to build while working at Twitter.

Protest outside BBC headquarters today by Bangladeshi and Bengali Hindus who fear they are experiencing an ethnic genocide in Bangladesh but say it is not being reported on by channels like the BBC. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/…

This may be the first peer-reviewed article to try to compare vaccines, so the comparison is interesting to me to adjust my own understanding. I added the manufacturer names as we're more used to those.

While many of us are celebrating the recent #ACL2021nlp acceptances, there are even more of us with papers rejected. This is a reminder that:
1. Paper rejections are not about you, and they are not a reflection of the quality of your research agenda. [1/3]

Hindus & religious minorities in Bangladesh continue to be targeted & persecuted, as they have been since 1971 when the Pakistani army systematically murdered, raped & drove from their homes millions of Bengali Hindus because of their religion & ethnicity.

I wish Indian politicians, govt leaders and so called gurus had the same concern for Hindu Genocide as Tulsi Gabbard ji does. Never ever seen them talk about it. Sad

Imagine 1000 cricket balls are flying at the heads of 1000 people - one ball per head
Without the vaccine these 1000 people will all be hit and 64 will die
With the vaccine only 55 (5.5%) will be hit and only 3 or 4 (6.4% of these 55 people) will die

Why China is ahead of India:
When UPA proposed GST, BJP opposed it.
Later, NDA proposed GST & Congress opposed it.
When UPA proposed pro-farmer reforms, BJP called it crony capitalism.
Today, when NDA proposes pro-farmer reforms, opposition is opposing.

Hindus are allowed to discover and celebrate their history without being called ridiculous names like "Hindu supremacist".
If you're triggered to learn, for instance, that the ancient Hindus were the first to perform plastic surgery, ASK YOURSELF WHY.

Something the whole community and @ACMSIGIR should also consider learning from, clarifying, and educating reviewers.
New blog post on reviewing policies!

Special focus on spurious reviews: this time no paper should be rejected primarily for not beating SOTA, for non-English work, for being a resource paper, etc. /1
