@yforster@types.pl I don't have any skin in this game, but I loathe giving remote talks. If I can just get my paper published, I'm happy to neither show up in person (paying $100000000000000 for the hotel and flights) nor give an online talk that is 100% going to have frustrating A/V issues.

@jonmsterling@mathstodon.xyz but choosing not to give a remote talk was always possible! I, too, might opt not to give such a talk. But would you give your first year PhD student the advice to decline the opportunity to give a remote talk?

@jonmsterling@mathstodon.xyz I do have skin in this game and, unlike participants, this can fuck all the way off. @yforster@types.pl
