I've been in favor of safe haven baby boxes since I heard about them years ago. But this article made me think more about the concept along with how it could be improved.

Why Baby Boxes Are Suddenly Everywhere
Devices to help parents anonymously surrender an infant are spreading across the U.S., stirring emotions and debate.

(Soundtrack of the Mighty Mouse theme, but somehow janky: “Here I come to save the day!”)

US sending about 200 troops to monitor Gaza ceasefire deal
The United States is sending about 200 troops to Israel to help support and monitor the ceasefire deal in Gaza as part of a team that includes partner nations, nongovernmental organizations and private-sector players. That's according to U.S. officials who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss details that weren't authorized for release. They said Thursday that U.S. Central Command is going to establish a “civil-military coordination center” in Israel that will help facilitate the flow…

(She, like others I spoke with for this article, requested anonymity out of fear of losing her job.)

Perpetual exploration in anonymous synchronous networks with a Byzantine black hole
In this paper, we investigate: ``How can a group of initially co-located mobile agents perpetually explore an unknown graph, when one stationary node occasionally behaves maliciously, under an adversary's control?''

This subtle power can drastically undermine classical exploration strategies designed for an always active black hole. We study this perpetual exploration…
