I collected a list of resources for my future doctoral students @UniFAU at the @CogCoVi lab - on 1st of October, my first 3 doctoral students will start their adventures: here is the collection of all those resources that are hopefully helpful and might also help others? 1/n https://t.co/pfMsbbBZo8
I do not have “magical” discipline and focusing ability — I struggle with distractions like everyone else. Often it is better to just remove the option to distract yourself instead of fighting he urges. When I decided to get serious about my AI work, I made a few changes: \

too academic for industry, too industrial for academia, just in time to work in machine learning engineering
Whenever I teach academic writing I tell my students a couple of things I strongly believe are fundamental. First, to learn how to write, you need to read. Second, to learn how to write well you need to read folks who write well, whose prose is clear, and whose style you like.
This paper makes me disappointed in my fellow academics. Cute or funny paper titles are linked with lower citation counts in top journals, though they boost citations in lower-tier journals, perhaps by helping papers stand out more (the study was in the field of Communications) https://t.co/z1R9opbE3f

Now that a significant number of YC startups are old enough to have grown big (e.g. 15 are now public) I'm able to see a whole new set of patterns. Having known them from very early on, when the company was just the founders, I can see patterns in how companies evolve.
Aspirations for academics: a 🧵(1/4) 1. May your heart be bigger than your h-index 2. May you peer review others' work the way you wish to be peer reviewed (the Golden Rule/don't be Reviewer 2) 3. May you never forget what it's like to be a struggling grad student (or postdoc)
