You know that you’re in a “good area” if the tickets in the #RERB are checked by a team of women only.

@LivMafia58619 @RERB Nice try! C’est 1/3 vers Mitry 😁

20 hours after the racist incident at #NeurIPS2024 this lame statement is all we hear from the conference on Twitter. Very sad 😢.

[NeurIPS Conference @NeurIPSConf]

NeurIPS acknowledges that the cultural generalization made by the keynote speaker today reinforces implicit biases by making generalisations about Chinese scholars. This is not what NeurIPS stands for. NeurIPS is dedicated to being a safe space for all of us. We want to address the comment made during the invited talk this afternoon, as it is something that NeurIPS does not condone and it doesn't align with our code of conduct. We are addressing this issue with the speaker directly.
NeurIPS is dedicated to being a diverse and inclusive place where everyone is treated equally.

That’s what you said yesterday…Well, I didn’t believe anyway 😂#RERB

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

Worth a message… #RERB

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

“invite you to get closer to our agents” 😂 #RERA

Trafic perturbe sur le #RERB au moins en direction Nord. 40 min pour Massy-Luxembourg.

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

Trafic perturbe sur le #RERB. On stationne á Luxembourg à cause d‘un actionnement d‘un signal d‘alarme.

#AAAI25 reviews are appearing in the system, which therefore is slow and breaking down regularly 😂. #AAAI2025

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

@RERB 🤣

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

Trafic normal sur la #RERB…

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

#RERB: Trafic normal. Tous les trains à destination de Massy-Palaiseau annullés.

@Grace_Stanke Why is the liability for reactors limited to 560 millions? Because the true risk is too high for nuclear energy to be profitable.

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

@cguayguayyy Jolie Bingo! Qui va gagner? Les RERs? Où les Métros? Mieux que l’Euro 🤩

[Benjamin Doerr @BenjaminDoerr1]

Ha, a (lower-bound) proof that at least one person attended my tutorial 😃! Theory applied to a real-world problem.

[Xavier Sánchez Díaz @saxarona]

Theory for non-theoreticians now by @BenjaminDoerr1 from @Polytechnique #GECCO24

Happy to share that our paper on heuristics for the target set selection problem was nominated for the best paper award of the ECOM track at @GeccoConf. Congratulations Martin Krejca and Nguyen Vu!

Happy to share that our paper on heuristics for the target set selection problem will appear at @GeccoConf 2024. Main take-away: Random parameters and simple greedy steps beat costly parameter tuning.

@JosepBorrellF On Tuesday? If my students need a reference letter, I react the same day if needed. If the middle-east explodes, you wait till Tuesday? Enjoy the Sunday roast.

New on the arxiv https://t.co/DXnNLX49kP: Noisy optimization via evolutionary algorithms. Already logarithmic population sizes can essentially remove the negative effect of noisy function evaluations. Appears at @GeccoConf 2024. From @LIX_lab @Polytechnique @IP_Paris_ with love.
