As per my own sanity policy, I waited a few days before reading the reviews for my reject (separating emotion and action) - I’m thankful for the pages and pages of feedback we received. It’s evident that we were NOT clear enough on a few key things. Onwards and upwards.

FYI any new author, struggling to write the start of your paper or report. This is how writing happens - it’s so interesting to watch. Contributions starting all over the place and it grows and edits down etc.

Provocative alt.chi from

on not using the phrase human-AI collaboration. It’s a powerful tool not a collaborator. And it’s instead based on lots of underpaid workers - distanced work on other humans effort.

Please do! It’s a great way to recognise excellent reviews, which shows up on people’s PCS reviewing history.

See yours:
Some conferences may rate reviews (inc “not useful”) but for CHI these come up as special recognitions in the history.

Interesting anecdotes from

on the early prototypes of the kinect that did not recognise larger people or people with darker skin tones. But this was pre a lot of the popular media of the problems we observed to be more pervasive issue across tech.

I always like this diagram when I see it getting shared.
Microsoft has always had a great philosophy around accessibility and introduced me to the idea of temporary disability. It’s a great way to broaden one’s perspective on how much impact making your product more accessible has.
