Instagram’s former head of safety and well-being Vaishnavi Jayakumar testified the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the trafficking of humans for sex.

“You could incur 16 violations and upon the 17th violation, your account would be suspended"

Not even a small scale election run by and for cryptographers can be held online without complexity rearing its ugly head.

Go figure a general election!
The International Association for Cryptologic Research has used heliosvoting.org – my online voting system – for a number of years.

This year, a trustee lost their secret key. The election has to be re-run.

Below, a few thoughts that didn't fit in the NYT piece.

Cannot think of any way to game their new system... nope, can't think of any possible issue with this

But let's look at the bright side, and preemptively congratulate all our alphabetically-advantaged colleagues in Maths/CS heavy subfields, for an imminent/well deserved promotion
🧪For those of us who do complex collaborations with multiple corresponding authors this is terrible . I suspect it will also hit female authors disproportionately as they tend to have more collaborations across fields…https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-03281-4
Google Scholar tool gives extra credit to first and last authors
Researchers welcome the initiative, but say it doesn’t go far enough to capture the nuance of researcher productivity and impact.

It's almost as if every university in the EU pivoting to the same strategy of "get more ERCs" isn't actually a strategy at all.

I do not understand why a reputable conference would willingly give AI-generated reviews to authors.
Here is a story about a AAAI paper that got 5 human reviews and 1 AI review. The AI generated review contained a page-long counterexample to a proof in the paper. The AI’s counter example contained hallucinated errors. How does one rebut an AI reviewer? www.linkedin.com/posts/omerbp...
