Today at para.chi we had interesting discussions around the panel on relationships between advisors and PhD students: https://www.phd-advising-hci.com/. There is also a survey you can still take about it but you must dig it up from the CHI Meta Facebook group.

Anne-Flore Cabouat presents our position paper on how difficult it is to understand how readable a visualization is and how this might relate to visualization literacy. Here, were at para.chi.paris but the paper was part of the fantastic Visualization literacy workshop at Chi this year. https://visualization-literacy.github.io/CHI2024/

para.chi.paris'24 has just started! We will discuss papers accepted at CHI'24, broadcast keynotes and discuss formats for local versions of conferences.

#chi2024 #parachi

#parachi Paris is starting now for two days. We are having #chi2024 paper presentations by authors who did not travel to Hawaii. Discussion about papers. Broadcasts of panels and keynotes, and a roundtable/workshop on designing the future of conference formats.

Attending para.chi.paris today and tomorrow. I really enjoyed the presentation of : Supporting Interdisciplinary Research with Cards-based Workshops - A Case Study on Participatory Planning for Mountain Pastoralism
https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3613905.3637107.. Nice use of cards to perhaps support design study research.

@janeadams if you want all full paper Vis content together, this dataset includes it all: https://sites.google.com/site/vispubdata/data-details. I also explain the complicated history. I'm currently working on an update to add the 2023 papers.

@janeadams Technically all IEEE VIS papers these days are published only in the first issue of TVCG of each year (VIS 2023 in TVCG 2024 issue 1) - but careful, it used to be a different issue in the past .
TVCG also published papers from other conferences and from what is called the "regular queue"= direct submissions to the journal. Some of these regular queue papers are about vis, some are more graphics oriented. The accepted vis oriented papers get an option to present at VIS but not all do

Wie geil ist das denn? Der Chaos Computer Club Essen hat das Grundgesetz nicht nur bei GitHub hochgeladen, sondern so aufbereitet, dass alle Änderungen durch Git Commits dargestellt sind und die Git Kommentare alle wesentlichen Infos enthalten.

Und natürlich haben die Bundespräsidenten mit korrektem Datum committed!

Equal work deserves equal pay.
And equal pay needs transparency.

One year ago, the EU Pay Transparency Directive was approved, bringing us a step closer to equality.

This is particularly important for women, who still earn less than men for the same work.

These rules will help end pay discrimination by ensuring:
🔸Pay transparency for jobseekers
🔸Right to information for employees
🔸Reporting on gender pay gap
🔸Joint pay assessment

#EUdelivers

Stuck on an ICE train in the west of Germany. The train will not move. A computer scientist seems to be in charge. The train will now be rebooted. Reboot time: 10 minutes. I can't help but wonder if this is the future experience of hacked transportation.

What happens when every time your browser sends data to a tracker it makes a beep sound? Well, @bert_hubert did just that. And it sounds like you are listening to an old school modem. Creepy stuff! https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/tracker-beeper/

With @elm at the University of Bremen giving talks. Enjoying listening to Niklas' thinking about HCAI tools.

🌿 Let's embrace the 4 R's: Reduce, reuse, recycle... and repair!

Today, the European Parliament adopted the 'Right to Repair' Directive. By promoting repairs both within and beyond the legal guarantee, it will soon mean:

🟢 Easier product fixes
🟢 Money saved
🟢 Less waste

By repairing and using our goods for longer, EU consumers can not only practice sustainable consumption but also save a significant amount of money in the process!

On my way to Bremen for a PhD defense. One of the nice things about working in Paris are the many train connections. Today: Paris - Cologne - Bremen. One stop, no airport, no baggage to check, no drinks to throw out, no cramped seating, no waiting at a gate or security check or baggage claim, arrival and departure directly from the city center, good conscience. The price to pay? Longer travel time (7h vs. 1.5h on board). But, I can read, look at the beautiful countryside, and listen to podcasts.

Das ist unglaublich. Neuen Zahlen zufolge pendeln in Paris mittlerweile zum 1. Mal mehr Fahrradfahrer von den Außenbezirken ins Zentrum als Autofahrer. Der einfache Grund: Bürgermeisterin Anne Hidalgo hat seit Amtsbeginn hunderte km neue & sichere Radwege gebaut. Mal wieder zeigt sich: Der Grundsatz "Build it and they will come" wurde in der 🇫🇷 Hauptstadt erneut eindrucksvoll bewiesen😊

One of the keynote presentations this year will be given by Sylvain Lefebvre, from Inria, titled "The Gates of Graphics: a deep dive into making your own Computer Graphics hardware"
