Mongolian Prime Minister Luvsannamsrain Oyun-Erdene resigned this Wednesday after weeks of anti-corruption protests in Ulaanbaatar.
The anti-government demonstrations had begun following reports of extravagant spending by the son of the former Prime Minister. The protests, primarily led by young Mongolians, centered on broader concerns about government corruption, inequality, and the influence of political elites and their families.

Mr Oyun-Erdene will remain as caretaker PM until his successor is appointed within 30 days. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

Interesting idea. I would just like to be able to mine my BlueSky followings to see if they are bridgyfed so I can follow them on Mastodon which is my preferred experience rather than moving though.

State Similarity in Modular Superconducting Quantum Processors with Classical Communications
As quantum devices continue to scale, distributed quantum computing emerges as a promising strategy for executing large-scale tasks across modular quantum processors. A central challenge in this paradigm is verifying the correctness of computational outcomes when subcircuits are executed independently following circuit cutting. Here we propose a cross-platform fidelity estimation algorithm tailored for modular architectures. Our method achieves substantial reductions in sample complexity compar…

Its good to have many tests in your R package, but it can be a pain to debug some failing tests when it happens. {lazytest} for the rescue: only rerun the failing tests, until they pass: #RStats

Modular forms of CM type mod $\ell$
We say that a normalized modular form without complex multiplication is of CM type modulo $\ell$ by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ if its Fourier coefficients $a_p$ are $0$ modulo a prime ideal dividing $\ell$ for every prime $p$ inert in $K$. In this paper, we address the following problem: Given a weight 2 cuspidal Hecke eigenform $f$ without CM which is of CM type modulo $\ell$ by an imaginary quadratic field $K$, does there exist a congruence modulo $\ell$ between $f$ and a genuine CM m…

What Needs Attention? Prioritizing Drivers of Developers' Trust and Adoption of Generative AI
Generative AI (genAI) tools are advertised as productivity aids. Yet, issues related to miscalibrated trust and usage friction continue to hinder their adoption. Additionally, AI can be exclusionary, failing to support diverse users adequately, further exacerbating these concerns. One such aspect of diversity is cognitive diversity -- variations in users' cognitive styles -- that leads to divergence in interaction styles. When an individual's cognitive styles are unsupported, it creates additio…
