“Notes on Being a Man”, by Scott Galloway. An interview by Jordan Klepper on The Daily Show.
Nearly one in five men in their 30s still live with their parents, and 15% report having no close friends. Men are also four times more likely to die by suicide than women.
“Guiding boys to become men is not a zero sum game. Everyone benefits.”

Sweden has had a stated goal of economic equality for 20 yrs, but the income gap between men and women remains the same. Capital is the blind spot. Women own less, save less and therefore benefit from significantly lower capital returns than men.
Additionally, capital is taxed less than wages which further reinforces the inequality. As long as Sweden's rules put more resistance in women's paths than in men's, capital, power and security will primarily benefit men.

Ny vitbok gör politiken svaret skyldig: Halvera inkomstgapet till 2030 | Fredrika Bremer-förbundet
Inkomstgapet mellan kvinnor och män har varit oförändrat i tre decennier. Kvinnor har fortfarande bara cirka 80 procent av mäns disponibla inkomster. Nu släpper Fredrika Bremer-förbundet vitboken "Därför blir män rikare än kvinnor" som visar varför vi står och stampar, och vad som krävs för att vända utvecklingen. Vitbokens forskarteam lyfter 20 skarpa åtgärder för att minska den ekonomiska ojämställdheten. Målet är tydligt: inkomstgapet ska kunna halveras till år 2030.

Polarization Maintaining Large Mode Area Yb Fibers for All Fiber Nanosecond Pulse Amplification
Polarization maintaining (PM), all-fiber amplifiers offer the benefits of alignment free and environmentally stable operation. To achieve high output powers, particularly in pulsed operation, it is necessary to balance the need to reduce deleterious nonlinear effects, often through the use of large mode area (LMA) fibers, with the onset of transverse mode instability whereby higher order modes (HOMs) mix with the desired fundamental mode output. Over the last few years, advances in high HOM los…

Not All Accuracy Is Equal: Prioritizing Diversity in Infectious Disease Forecasting
Ensemble forecasts have become a cornerstone of large-scale disease response, underpinning decision making at agencies such as the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Their growing use reflects the goal of combining multiple models to improve accuracy and stability versus using a single model. However, recent experience shows these benefits are not guaranteed. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the CDC's multi-model forecasting ensemble outperformed the best single model by only 1%,…
