Norway is the undisputed leader when it comes to EVs in the vehicle fleet. Denmark is following closely behind, and at a rapid pace: the share of EVs in the vehicle fleet doubled in one year. Growth in the share is also continuing in Sweden and Finland.

One thing that's bothered me about the aftermath of the loss at Stamford Bridge is the punditry acting like Cucurella's comment that they targeted the space behind Salah shows some sort of tactical brilliance by Maresca.
Literally EVERY team flings diagonal balls into space on that flank, a known risk and a calculation that Salah's lethality will negate a willingness for the LB to go forward and join the attack.
The real story is that he's not been dangerous and c…

New Gist: AI, The Sound and Fury
I try to explain all of this AI thing in one article, and suggest why it is hostile to democracy, to humanity but also happily likely to end with the would-be tech Sun Kings taking trips to the financial guillotine.

The Gist: AI, The Sound and Fury
We can calculate the amount of money flowing into AI. But what will the full cost be to society when the bubble pops? This is the Gist.

Effects of strain on the stability of the metallic rutile and insulating M1 phases of vanadium dioxide
We present a systematic density-functional theory study of the effects of strain on the structural and electronic properties in vanadium dioxide (VO$_2$), with particular emphasis on its effect on the relative stability of the metallic rutile and the insulating monoclinic M1 phases. We consider various strain conditions that can be related to epitaxial strain present in VO$_2$ films grown on different lattice planes. Our calculations confirm the dominant role of $c$ axis strain, i.e., along the…

This is the kind of thing the old twitter was very good at. You could make some observations, ask generally if they were correct and before long a statistician and a criminologist appeared to answer your question. Closely followed by an expert in geopolitics with Europol following behind..

Finding the temperature window for atomic layer deposition of ruthenium metal via efficient phonon calculations
We investigate the use of first principles thermodynamics based on periodic density functional theory (DFT) to examine the gas-surface chemistry of an oxidized ruthenium surface reacting with hydrogen gas. This reaction system features in the growth of ultrathin Ru films by atomic layer deposition (ALD). We reproduce and rationalize the experimental observation that ALD of the metal from RuO4 and H2 occurs only in a narrow temperature window above 100°C, and this validates the approach. Specif…
