Another passenger plane is lost in Russia.
This is the third since the war began. The other two were the Malaysia Airlines plane shot down over Ukraine and the Azerbaijan Airlines plane shot full of shrapnel over Grozny.
Can’t imagine why today’s plane would have been shot at considering it was in the Far East… but we’ll see.
Not sure why anyone would take the risk to fly to a Russian airport these days.

8 journalists given lengthy jail terms as Azerbaijan crushes free press - Committee to Protect Journalists
New York, June 23, 2025— Eight Azerbaijani journalists have received prison sentences ranging from 7 ½ to 15 years, as part of an ongoing series of media trials likely to obliterate independent reporting in the Caucasus nation. In a closed-door trial on Monday, columnist and peace activist Bahruz Samadov was sentenced by a court in...

GATEBLEED: Exploiting On-Core Accelerator Power Gating for High Performance & Stealthy Attacks on AI
As power consumption from AI training and inference continues to increase, AI accelerators are being integrated directly into the CPU. Intel's Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX) is one such example, debuting on the 4th generation Intel Xeon Scalable CPU. We discover a timing side and covert channel, GATEBLEED, caused by the aggressive power gating utilized to keep the CPU within operating limits. We show that the GATEBLEED side channel is a threat to AI privacy as many ML models such as transform…

A Nonlinear Nonlocal Problem for the Caputo Fractional Subdiffusion Equation
In this paper, we study a time-fractional subdiffusion equation with a nonlinear nonlocal initial condition involving the unknown solution at the final time. The considered problem is formulated using the Caputo fractional derivative of order \(0 < α< 1\), along with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The nonlocal initial condition is of the form \( u(x,0) = g(x, u(x,T)) \), where \(g\) is a nonlinear function satisfying a Lipschitz condition. The main challenge arises from the implici…

Characterizing the neutron component of extensive air showers with the Surface-Scintillator Detectors of AugerPrime
Neutrons are the only neutral hadrons that remain stable over the timescale of an air-shower development. Their energy is lost only through hadronic interactions and quasi-elastic scattering, which results in their high abundance at the ground. The signals from the electromagnetic and muonic components in scintillation detectors typically span only a few microseconds. In contrast, the neutrons can cause delayed pulses in scintillation detectors up to and beyond several milliseconds after the pa…
