And @drchole.bsky.social's presentation of our (with md.ekstrandom.net) call for a revised research agenda for #recsys

10 years ago, @drchole.bsky.social & I discussed “should Michael move to Boise?”, and I did, and we started the PIReT Ship.

7 years ago, we welcomed 800 friends to #RecSys2018 in Vancouver.

Super excited that this year she's program chair (w/ Marco de Gemmis) for #RecSys2025!

The preprint for our opinions piece on a reimagined research agenda for #recsys is out. Happy to have had the best co-authors, @drchole.bsky.social and @md.ekstrandom.net #recsys2025 #beyond2025

Could not be happier for this positive notification for our opinion piece calling for a revised #recsys research agenda, continuing @xamat.bsky.social' discussion from 15 years ago. With fantastic co-authors @drchole.bsky.social & @md.ekstrandom.net. #BEYOND2025 #recsys2025 @recsys.bsky.social
