Cowboys owner Jerry Jones aims to 'spend more money' in free agency in 2026 https://www.nfl.com/news/cowboys-owner-jerry-jones-aims-to-spend-more-money-in-free-agency-in-2026
just fixed the OEIL scraper (again!), someone who needs to justify their EU bureaucrat salary and pension had spent the (half) effort and renamed some (not all) css classes starting with "erpl_" to "es_", which of course we use in our xpath expressions and which thusly broke.
anyway big thanks and hugs to the kind person who reported the failing scraper to us. ❤️

Abstract: We investigate the fate of a one-dimensional lattice superfluid formed by hard-core bosons, aka `atoms' (alternatively, a free spinless Fermi sea) subjected to nearest-neighbor attractive Hubbard-like interactions only in subgroups of two sites. The system, as expected, stabilizes a fluid of dimerized molecules at large attractive interactions. However, the composite molecules have an effective meek hopping scale and dominant repulsive interactions solely due to virtual quantum fluctuations. Interestingly, at an intermediate attractive potential, the system realizes a phase-separated region where the system is in an absorbing state. We show that this phase-separated region is due to an emergent attractive interaction between the dimers which leads to a local charge-density wave puddle where particles effectively cluster with local half-filling. Moreover the molecular superfluid gets spontaneously charge-ordered in the addition of an unpaired atom, reflecting the extreme sensitivity of the system to the existence of lone atoms. Using density-matrix renormalization group studies and effective low-energy Hamiltonians, we isolate the quantum processes to uncover the physics behind molecule formation in a strongly interacting one-dimensional system.

It’s worth noting that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, originator of the bad deductive rule in question, spent his later years falling for and vehemently defending a variety of hoaxes involving fairies and communicating with the dead:
