Converting C# code that uses tasks to F# can be so maddening because for the most part it's very straightforward until you forget a "return" statement somewhere in some indented if/else flow.

Multi-intent-aware Session-based Recommendation
Session-based recommendation (SBR) aims to predict the following item a user will interact with during an ongoing session. Most existing SBR models focus on designing sophisticated neural-based encoders to learn a session representation, capturing the relationship among session items. However, they tend to focus on the last item, neglecting diverse user intents that may exist within a session. This limitation leads to significant performance drops, especially for longer sessions. To address thi…

One of the fediverse's great strengths is that you can block entire collections of ill-intentioned morons at once. My own policy is to defederate any server with "shitpost" in the domain name.
If only I could do that to my "fuck your feelings" magat neighbors.

Tropical twisted Hurwitz numbers for elliptic curves
Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemann surfaces. For a fixed elliptic target, Hurwitz numbers are intimately related to mirror symmetry following work of Dijkgraaf. In recent work of Chapuy and Dolega a new variant of Hurwitz numbers with fixed genus $0$ target was introduced that includes maps between between non-orientiable surfaces. These numbers are called $b$-Hurwitz numbers and are polynomials in a parameter $b$ which measures the non-orientability of the involved ma…
