Following public outcry,
the U.S. Department of Education has restored funding for students who have both hearing and vision loss,
about a month after cutting it.
But rather than sending the money directly to the four programs that are part of a national network helping students who are deaf and blind, a condition known as deafblindness,
the department has instead rerouted the grants to a different organization

NY Attorney General Letitia James joined a Condé Nast union rally, protesting recent firings that followed a staff confrontation with HR.

I feel stupid for asking this… but is there still no good way to checkout and later pull a pull request branch from another repo?
We've got `gh pr checkout NUMBER` but the only way I've found to fetch updates is to delete the local branch and start over.
I really don't want to play adlib with manually adding remotes etc – is this still the best we can do in 2025??
EDIT: it’s solved! 🎉

@hynek @carlton Drop fetch.all=true and that fixes it.You may need to learn to use git remote update instead of git fetch though.And I’d consider filing this as a bug upstream, because as you said ...

Researchers say videos of Charlie Kirk's shooting fall into a policy gap on social media platforms, between allowable "graphic content" and "glorified violence" (Lauren Goode/Wired)

Charlie Kirk Was Shot and Killed in a Post-Content Moderation World
Videos of the shooting spread across TikTok, Instagram, and X. Researchers say that in some cases the platforms are falling short on enforcing their own content moderation rules.

$Δ$-AttnMask: Attention-Guided Masked Hidden States for Efficient Data Selection and Augmentation
Visual Instruction Finetuning (VIF) is pivotal for post-training Vision-Language Models (VLMs). Unlike unimodal instruction finetuning in plain-text large language models, which mainly requires instruction datasets to enable model instruction-following ability, VIF also requires multimodal data to enable joint visual and textual understanding; therefore, it typically requires more data. Consequently, VIF imposes stricter data selection challenges: the method must scale efficiently to handle lar…

Oxygen incorporation in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ thin films: surface activation and degradation
The oxygen off-stoichiometry plays a pivotal role for the physical properties of superconducting oxides. Yet, there is a lack of knowledge on the fundamental processes of oxygen incorporation and correlated phenomena during oxygen post annealing treatments. Here, we deployed electrical probes ($ρ(T)$ and electrical conductivity relaxation (ECR) measurements) to gain a better understanding of the kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in epitaxial YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7-δ}$ (YBCO) thin fi…
