@___fargol___ عشق از معشوق آغاز می‌شود، اما در معشوق پایان نمی‌یابد
گاهی معشوق با رفتن، بیش از ماندن در عشق اثر می‌گذارد. زیرا در نبود او، عاشق دیگر به خودِ عشق تکیه می‌کند و زیستن با فراق، خود شکلی از عاشقی می‌ شود.

رنج مردم، نردبان قدرت هیچ‌کس نیست.
آنان که از زخم وطن برای خود پرچم ساختند، نه دلسوز مردم‌اند نه شایسته‌ی نام وطن

@abresooratii تنهایی صرفاً نبودنِ آدم‌ها نیست؛ نبودنِ نوع خاصی از ارتباط است که آدم زمانی با کسی تجربه کرده. برای همین، کنار هم گذاشتنِ دو آدم تنها لزوماً تنهایی‌شان را حل نمی‌کند. هر کسی دلتنگِ نوع متفاوتی از صمیمیت، فهمیده‌شدن یا پیوند است؛ و هیچ آدمی نمی‌تواند این جای خالیِ را پر کند

The situation remains unchanged, and almost no one seems concerned. I am sure that if there were oil involved, many countries would suddenly care about these women’s rights, using them as an excuse to justify intervention. The silence is shameful.

Taliban banned Afghan women from university education.
Shame on countries that have supported the Taliban ride back to power

I’ll be in Fukuoka this week (June 1–3), visiting Kyushu University and giving a talk.

Happy to meet and chat about AI, the philosophy of AI, or anything else interesting.

Send me a message if you’d like to meet.

Piety limited by borders can become hypocrisy. A nation cannot call itself moral while protecting dignity at home and destroying innocent lives abroad. True justice does not stop at the border.

I spent a day replacing Slack with Mattermost , and it feels like a good choice. Free, open source, self-hostable, and no per-user pricing :))Just started using it, but so far it really feels like what matters most.

Measuring an academic’s credibility by Google Scholar metrics is like using a noisy sensor: the signal is there, but the noise-to-signal ratio is far too high to trust on its own.

@AlaviFatima98 ارسطو می‌گه فضیلت حدّ میانه‌ست. نه مثل اونا عوضی شو، نه اون‌قدر نرم که لگدت کنن.
انسان بمون، ولی با ستون فقرات.

[Mohammad Sabokrou @sabokrou]

بحران و جنگ، نفسِ آدم‌ها را آشکار می‌کند؛ معلوم می‌شود چه کسی فضیلتِ شجاعت، عدالت و وفاداری دارد و چه کسی اسیر ترس، منفعت یا بی‌نظمیِ درونی است.

Midnight in Nagoya 🌙
The air feels soft tonight, the kind that makes you slow down and stay a little longer. Hard to go back inside when the city feels this beautiful.

@josephseering KAIST is great for research, but faculty hiring in many Asian universities often favors prestige and big-name institutions. Even highly qualified candidates can face a very different situation otherwise. The US and Europe are quite different.

I’ll be in Nagoya this week, May 20–21, visiting Toyota Technological Institute and giving a talk.

Happy to meet and chat about AI, computer vision, ML, trustworthy AI, and the future of AI.

@minaa_ghadimi سلام ادم خوبیه. من ژاپن دیدمش با هم حرف زدیم. آدم باحالی بود.

@bendantian Even during some oral presentations, both the authors and parts of the audience seemed to coordinate what questions should be asked

[Mohammad Sabokrou @sabokrou]

@bendantian Sure, it was a big problem. I asked several people about it, but instead of explaining the paper, they said they were only proxies and did not really know the details. In the session where I was serving as chair, it was obvious how serious the problem was. .

Great time in Barcelona at ICASSP 2026 — presenting our work on zero-shot anomaly detection, chairing two sessions, reconnecting with old colleagues, meeting great new people, and visiting the Barcelona Supercomputing Center! @ICASSp
