@Chef_602 See the four key indicators section in this article https://t.co/WMeyNhaBjN . The tackle by Taffe seems to be missing one of the four key indicators . Presumably also why Abney II wasn’t penalized for hit on Bond that would have nullified ASU’s pick of Ewers.

@LinderShowMiami To me it certainly looks like textbook roughing the passer (a) ball out; (b) first step; (c) second step. I get not calling DPI on a Hail Mary but if the whole point of RTP calls is QB safety that matters on every play.

Congratulations to @tararootcake for having her dissertation at U-M recognized as exceptionally impactful with the Kuck Dissertation Award for her work on augmenting structure with text. Want to work with her and other researchers at @MSFTResearch ? We are looking for interns!

[Tara Safavi @tararootcake]

Really honored to receive this award🤩I suppose now's as good a time as any to share that I've defended my dissertation from @UMichCSE @michigan_AI & joined @MSFTResearch working on LLMs, information retrieval, and the future of search & recommendation!

[Paul Bennett @pnbennett]

@QianZhao3 Glad you made it to town for RecSys. It was great catching up!

@flosalim @JakeRenzella Strange to call a ristretto pull stronger. True that it’s more concentrated but it’s sweeter and less caffeinated. I’ve always thought of it as milder, but I can see how the concentration would cause some to say stronger.

Enjoying #SIGIR2022 with colleagues in-person (@pnbennett) and remote (@susan_dumais). #FlatSusan #FancyAcademics

[Paul Bennett @pnbennett]

@jteevan @susan_dumais If you have ever wanted a picture with Salton Award winner, Technical Fellow, and Director of Microsoft Research Labs at NYC, Montreal, and New England @susan_dumais , stop by the Microsoft booth at #SIGIR2022 to take a selfie with #FlatSusan ! @MSFTResearch

[Paul Bennett @pnbennett]

@jteevan kicking off the hybrid technical program of #SIGIR2022 with a keynote on a new and better Future of Work. @MSFTResearch @ACMSIGIR

[Paul Bennett @pnbennett]

@jteevan @SIGIRConf I'm having trouble finding the fancy pictures although I think I have some. @susan_dumais just shared this picture she came across though of me at #SIGIR2002 (my first SIGIR). If only I was both young and dressed as a #FancyAcademic in it!

[Paul Bennett @pnbennett]

Great feature on Tom Zimmerman's research in ACM profiles, https://t.co/Ka9PM4U2V0 . One of the researchers at Microsoft Research investigating how AI will reshape the landscape of developer productivity. @tomzimmermann @nicolefv @MSFTResearch
