I couldn't find a list of Artificial Intelligence Researcher in Canada who are on Blue Sky, but every day there are more and more coming over from the other place. So here's my Starter Pack for it!
Drop me a line in the responses to let me know who I'm missing.

No doubt. Here's hoping we don't replicate this up north.

Not too bad tbh. More exploitation than exploration (discovery seems limited) and the UI seems very basic compared to spotify, but it can actually deliver good sound quality for a change! It did crap out once on my ride to the university, but hasn't been bad outside of WiFi otherwise.

I gave up on spotify (intentional lack of capitalization) last month and moved to Tidal. Can't wait to find out what all is wrong with that too...

Almost forgot to donate to Wikipedia this year. Thank you, to a certain someone, for the reminder.

I'm looking for an emergency reviewer or two for an AISTATS submission in the area of Bayesian ML theory, which at present has the misfortune of three low-quality reviews.

If you're able to help, please DM and let me know! Please link your Google Scholar if I don't already know you personally.

I agree, that is a poor explanation. I would've first explained the concepts of Lie brackets, controllability, and non-holonomic dynamics to the kids. /s (if needed)

Bah, Humbug! Negative \vspace is for the faint-hearted. <1 \linespread is where it's at!

Is there? Looking to follow more folks in controls and robotics here.

I appreciate that. Look forward to vicariously experiencing CDC'24 through you and others here :)

This is the first CDC-related post I've seen on bsky! It's all Neurips on my feed.
Typed unironically on my way back from Neurips.
