Nvidia will stop including China in its forecasts amid US chip export controls, CEO says
Chipmaker Nvidia will exclude the Chinese market from its revenue and profit forecasts following the imposition of tough US restrictions on chip sales to China, its CEO said Thursday.

Last week, our students learned how to conduct a proper evaluation for an NLP experiment. To this end, we introduced a small textcorpus with sentences about Joseph Fourier, who counts as one of the discoverers of the greenhouse effect, responsible for global warming.

I had a bad day and made a mistake, but I chose to do the right thing and move forward.
Proud bisexual, gender-fluid, autistic anarchist committed to building a world based on mutual aid, solidarity, and freedom for all.
If you believe in challenging power and creating change from the ground up, let’s connect and let’s grow this movement together.
Now, here I am, feeling stronger and ready for better days ahead.

Equivariant CM minimization for extremal manifolds
We prove an equivariant version of the CM minimization conjecture for extremal Kähler manifolds. This involves proving that, given an equivariant punctured family of polarized varieties, a relative version of the CM degree is strictly minimized by an extremal filling. This generalizes a result by Hattori for cscK manifolds with discrete automorphism group by allowing automorphisms and extremal metrics. As a main tool, we extend results by Székelyhidi on asymptotic filtration Chow stability …

Im using case_when() quite a lot, case_match() is new to me: #rstats

A general vectorised switch() — case_match
This function allows you to vectorise multiple switch() statements. Each case is evaluated sequentially and the first match for each element determines the corresponding value in the output vector. If no cases match, the .default is used. case_match() is an R equivalent of the SQL "simple" CASE WHEN statement. Connection to case_when() While case_when() uses logical expressions on the left-hand side of the formula, case_match() uses values to match against .x with. The following two statement…

HBAR entropy of Infalling Atoms into a GUP-corrected Schwarzschild Black Hole and equivalence principle
In this work, we have investigated the phenomenon of acceleration radiation exhibited by a two-level atom freely falling into a Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP)-corrected Schwarzschild black hole. We derive analytic expressions for the atom's excitation probability with simultaneous emission of a scalar quantum and observe that it satisfies the Einstein equivalence principle when compared to the excitation probability induced by a uniformly accelerating mirror, motivated by studies [10.1…

Quantifying imaginarity of quantum operations
Complex numbers are theoretically proved and experimentally confirmed as necessary in quantum mechanics and quantum information, and a resource theory of imaginarity of quantum states has been established. In this work, we establish a framework to quantify the imaginarity of quantum operations from the perspective of the ability to create or detect imaginarity, following the idea by Theurer {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{122}, 190405 (2019)] used in coherence theory. We present two type…

The Everyday Security of Living with Conflict
When `cyber' is used as a prefix, attention is typically drawn to the technological and spectacular aspects of war and conflict -- and, by extension, security. We offer a different approach to engaging with and understanding security in such contexts, by foregrounding the everyday -- mundane -- experiences of security within communities living with and fleeing from war. We do so through three vignettes from our field research in Colombia, Lebanon and Sweden, respectively, and by highlighting th…
