Friendly reminder: if you're inviting people to review papers and/or serve on a program committee for a conference, your email should state the schedule for reviewing and planned workload so that people can make an informed decision whether it fits with the rest of their work schedule or not.

The peoples of the world are becoming profoundly dissatisfied and are not appeased by the promise of the social democrats to patch up the state into a new engine of oppression.

Hi! It’s Myroslava.

Today, the great people of a great country celebrate a great holiday - Independence Day. 32 years ago, Ukraine resumed its existence.

However, it is now forced to fight for its independence by fighting the Russians.

There is a bloody war going on, but Ukrainians are not giving up and are trying to live on. Even under these circumstances, they celebrate their day.

For the second year in a row, Ukraine has been celebrating Independence Day in the face of a full-scale war.

⚠️🇫🇷“I will talk to Putin when it is beneficial and necessary”, — French President Emmanuel Macron in an interview with Le Point. Once again, Macron expressed readiness to talk with the head of the Kremlin, "even despite the fact that Russia, as a member of the UN Security Council, is stirring up chaos in the world."

I am an anarchist not because I believe anarchism is the final goal, but because there is no such thing as a final goal.

If you don’t like what Google is doing, spend a few moments seeing if some non-Google alternatives work for you:

Android —> GrapheneOS, /e/, Droidian, and more
Chrome —> Firefox, Safari, (Lynx :))
Docs —> cryptpad, Nextcloud docs, Collabora online
Drive —> Nextcloud
Gmail —> protonmail, mail from someone like Mythic Beasts
Search —> DuckDuckGo, StartPage

You don’t have to change everything at once, or commit to anything immediately. But it is Google, so you may be forced to move at some point!
