“It’s killing us”: Following workplace death, Amazon worker at JFK8 in Staten Island speaks out on unsafe working conditions
The WSWS is urging workers to take matters into their own hands and organize a rank-and-file committee to investigate this and other needless incidents at JFK8 and fight for workers’ control over safety.

Hatevolution: What Static Benchmarks Don't Tell Us
Language changes over time, including in the hate speech domain, which evolves quickly following social dynamics and cultural shifts. While NLP research has investigated the impact of language evolution on model training and has proposed several solutions for it, its impact on model benchmarking remains under-explored. Yet, hate speech benchmarks play a crucial role to ensure model safety. In this paper, we empirically evaluate the robustness of 20 language models across two evolving hate speec…

@… I think it’s partially a question of motivation for me. Everyone around me speaks English, so learning German is… low on the list.
I hope to take more classes, and learn more, and eventually become proficient. But I think fluency, or thinking in German, is probably never going to happen for me.
I’m OK with that, most days. 🙃

Shortest filling geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces
In this paper, we obtain the minimal length of a filling (multi-)geodesic on a genus $g$ hyperbolic surface in the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces and show that it is realized by the geodesic whose complement is a right-angled regular $(8g-4)$-gon. A single geodesic realizing this minimum is provided.

Space-time fractional stochastic partial differential equations driven by Lévy white noise
This paper is concerned with the following space-time fractional stochastic nonlinear partial differential equation \begin{equation*} \left(\partial_t^β+\fracν{2}\left(-Δ\right)^{α/ 2}\right) u=I_{t}^γ\Big[ f(t,x,u)-\sum_{i=1}^{d} \frac{\partial}{\partial x_i} q_i(t,x,u)+ σ(t,x,u) F_{t,x}\Big] \end{equation*} for a random field $u(t,x):[0,\infty)\times\mathbb{R}^d \mapsto\mathbb{R}$, where $α>0, β\in(0,2), γ\ge0, ν>0, F_{t,x}$ is a Lévy space-time white noise, $I_{t}^γ$ stands for…

Pandemic-era slump in ivory and pangolin scale trafficking persists, report finds
A recent report surveying seizures of pangolin scales and elephant ivory over the past decade has found a sharp decline following the COVID-19 pandemic. Using data from media reports, public documents, and criminal intelligence and investigations, analysts at the Wildlife Justice Commission (WJC) found authorities seized more than 370 metric tons of pangolin scales and […]
