We know who the culprit is, and honestly it is unbelievable that we cannot have good things because scarce (and might I add, publicly funded) resources are stolen by reckless gold rushers. Rate-limit or link-maze them all to hell, honestly. #compsci #compsky #academicchatter
There is a massive flood of website requests coming to #dblp from all directions. We are usually able to cope most days, but not so much the past four days. We are sorry, and we are actively working on it. 1/2

I'll present our #CAV25 paper "Full LTL Synthesis over Infinite-State Arenas" at the #VASSAL workshop in Graz (co-located with #RV25)! My pal and colleague Shaun gave an excellent presentation in Zagreb, hope I'll match that bar :)

One of the harbingers of AI mannerisms creeping into human content is the dreaded “x is not y, it’s z”. Perhaps it’s a frequency illusion but I see it everywhere now. Folks, don’t waste my time telling me what x is not, please! 🙏

Call me a walking stereotype, but I love me some good chiptune when I need to focus at work. And yet I'd never heard of this excellent website! 🤯 👾 #chiptune #keygenmusic
Ten years ago, on April 30, 2015, the first version of the site was released.
It's hard to believe it's been a full decade. Happy anniversary!

Kind of crazy how many citations are lost on #scopus, a tool that can seal your fate whenever you apply to an academic job. I can only assume its stats are utterly inaccurate for senior researchers that no longer need or care to "set the record straight". #compsky #academicchatter
