NeurIPS 2026 Reviews Are Out Today (22 July, AoE) — Discussion Thread [D]

Reviews drop today. This thread is for reactions, celebrations, commiserations, and anything useful in between. First: if you got good reviews, say so. There's a norm in these threads where only the bad news gets aired, and it skews everyone's sense of what's normal. Post your wins. Second , the thing worth repeating every cycle: the review process is noisy, and that noise is measured, not folklore.
