Hello everyone
I am here for some advice or feedback from people who may have went through similar thing.

I’d say for the last couple of month I really stopped enjoying running and as a result I am dreading hitting the gym more and more.
The thing is I have made so
Much progress this year from not being able to run at all to running 11km
Without stopping and I don’t want to loose my cardio cause I know that whenever I stay more than two weeks off the gym when I run again it’s hard.
For context I am comfortable running 5k that’s actually what I do most of the time I used to do 3 times 5ks in the week and then on the 4th day I would run a bit longer anywhere between 6 to 11km.

I can’t skip the gym any longer cause I’m gaining weight so I need to go back to a consistent gym schedule but I also know I can’t run anymore I’m not enjoying it so I was wondering is there another cardio exercise I could do that would keep my fitness level so that whenever I am ready I’ll be able to do my 5ks with no trouble ?
I really don’t want to have to start from the bottom again when I couldn’t even run 10mn without stopping so any advice is welcome.

Bonjour !!
Comme indiqué dans le Titre, je dois demenegaet à Toulouse pour un job et je je suis donc à la recherche d’un logement pour le 30 Mai/31 mai.
C’est un cdi donc ça serait pour du long terme, quoi que si quelqu’un sous loue son appart durant l’été ça peut aussi être intéressant juste histoire d’avoir un pied à terre.
Pensez vous que c’est réaliste d’avoir un T1 bis ou t2 à 600 euros charges comprises ?

Avez vous des pistes à partager ?
Merci bcp

Hello everyone,
Presenting at a top-tier conference for the first time and having a very hard time coming up with an appropriate design for my poster.
Everything I do seems basic and banal. My paper is more theory-oriented, and apart from putting math formulas in bold in the middle, I am not sure what the best way is to design the poster. Even the sizing choice is complicated as ICML gives 3 different recommendations to pick from, and somehow from my computer, I can’t see how the PowerPoint slide will look like printed on those dimensions.
And
Printing a poster is nearly $100 CAD, so there’s no room for trial and error.

So
If anyone has any tips on how to do it properly,
I have been using PowerPoint, but perhaps I should go to Canvas? Or
Does anyone have another software to recommend?

Hello everyone.

UAI review results were released last Thursday, and the discussion period was clearly stated as April 23 to May 2nd. However, none of the papers I reviewed have yet published their rebuttals. I believe this confusion arises because people are mistakenly equating the discussion deadline with the rebuttal deadline. For example, ICML has a rebuttal deadline followed by a discussion period, but this isn’t the case here.

If authors wait until May 2nd to submit their rebuttals, they won’t have the opportunity to address any additional questions or engage in further discussion with the reviewers nor will the reviewers be able to raise any follow up question.

As an author, I’ve already submitted my rebuttal, but only one reviewer has responded. Additionally, I’ve noticed that when a reviewer responds to your rebuttal, the other reviewers do not see it. The openreview process for UAI is significantly different from ICML and lacks transparency. All comments from reviewers and authors should be visible to everyone.

The discussion between reviewers and authors should be public, but only the rebuttal is visible to everyone the reviewer’s response is not visible to other reviewers. When you respond to a reviewer, the other reviewers also do not see that exchange.

I’m genuinely confused about why this process was implemented and why it doesn’t resemble ICML, where transparency and clear deadlines are the norm. It’s unusual that, two days before the discussion period ends, none of the papers I reviewed have any rebuttals and only one of the five reviewers of my paper acknowledged my rebuttal, while the other four remain silent.

I would like to reach out to the conference chair to suggest changes that would make the process more similar to other conferences and ensure greater transparency.

If anyone has any insights into why authors haven’t published their rebuttals or why reviewers haven’t been active during this discussion period, please let me know. I was expecting a genuine discussion rather than just posting my rebuttal without any response. Rebuttal acknowledgment should be mandatory.

Hello does anyone what’s the easiest and safest way to buy a 1oz gold coin that would be also easy to sell and get back the money.

Just want a very simple process where I can keep the coin at home and if I decide to sell it in 10 years I just go give it back and they give me the value in money.

I want to avoid buying it and if I decide to sell having trouble selling. So the easiest way to buy and sell the physical coin with no complication or else.

I am in Quebec ( tried Scotiabank and they don’t sell anymore, I think same goes for TD bank you need to have an account with them )

Hello everyone

I am looking for good and professional cleaning services I. Montreal ideally downtown.

I was widowed in a very abrupt and tragic way nearly one year ago and I have been through depression and grief for the past year and that’s reflected on my apartment.

I am extremely embarrassed in the way things are currently. I don’t have any justification for letting things get this bad except that my whole energy was used to survive and not off myself.

I am still dealing with the mental health issues related to that. But since starting medication and therapy things are improving slowly. I start to realize how little care I have taken of my apartment and I honestly don’t have it in me to go through the deep clean it needs.

Of course the situation is very embarrassing thus I am looking for a cleaning company that’s specialized in situation like mine when people going through a hard time neglect their living spaces to an extreme level.

The whole apartment needs a very deep clean and I am looking for professional services, people who have dealt with similar case before and who won’t judge me.

If you have any recommendations they are more than welcome

Thanks

EDIT: thanks to all of you who took the time to share suggestion or leave a kind message. I truly appreciate it.
