Calamus 22 Passing stranger!
An absolutely smoldering poem of unfulfilled desire from a casual encounter. It is delicious for its clear and direct explication of a very complicated emotion. The hottest line:
You give me the pleasure of your eyes, face, flesh, as we pass
The poem manages to capture three things in just ten lines.
Whitman is generously pan-gender but the text still feels queer-coded to me. Specifically in how the desire is kept secret: "I am not to speak to you... I am to wait". Combined with the street-cruising scenario (a theme in previous poems) and I can definitely relate to my gay experience.

RewardBench 2: Advancing Reward Model Evaluation
Reward models are used throughout the post-training of language models to capture nuanced signals from preference data and provide a training target for optimization across instruction following, reasoning, safety, and more domains. The community has begun establishing best practices for evaluating reward models, from the development of benchmarks that test capabilities in specific skill areas to others that test agreement with human preferences. At the same time, progress in evaluation has not…

CyberGym: Evaluating AI Agents' Cybersecurity Capabilities with Real-World Vulnerabilities at Scale
Large language model (LLM) agents are becoming increasingly skilled at handling cybersecurity tasks autonomously. Thoroughly assessing their cybersecurity capabilities is critical and urgent, given the high stakes in this domain. However, existing benchmarks fall short, often failing to capture real-world scenarios or being limited in scope. To address this gap, we introduce CyberGym, a large-scale and high-quality cybersecurity evaluation framework featuring 1,507 real-world vulnerabilities fo…

A High-Performance Evolutionary Multiobjective Community Detection Algorithm
Community structure is a key feature of complex networks, underpinning a diverse range of phenomena across social, biological, and technological systems. While traditional methods, such as Louvain and Leiden, offer efficient solutions, they rely on single-objective optimization, often failing to capture the multifaceted nature of real-world networks. Multi-objective approaches address this limitation by considering multiple structural criteria simultaneously, but their high computational cost r…

It's only Thursday morning and I've already had what's probably the most intense and productive week of writing since the home-stretch of my dissertation almost 15 years ago.
I basically wrote the entire first draft - and not a super drafty draft, at that - of what I'm thinking will be the second chapter in my next book.
I'm feeling great.

Unified Structural Embedding of Orbifold Sigma Models
This paper introduces a unified structural embedding framework for orbifold sigma models that systematically incorporates twisted sectors, singularities, and smooth regions into a single algebraic object. Traditional approaches to orbifold theories often treat sectors separately, requiring ad hoc regularizations near singularities and failing to capture inter-sector interactions under renormalization group flow. The framework presented herein resolves these limitations through the construction …

Dynamics of thin film flows on a vertical fibre with vapor absorption
Water vapor capture through free surface flows plays a crucial role in various industrial applications, such as liquid desiccant air conditioning systems, water harvesting, and dewatering. This paper studies the dynamics of a silicone liquid sorbent (also known as water-absorbing silicone oil) flowing down a vertical cylindrical fibre while absorbing water vapor. We propose a one-sided thin-film-type model for these dynamics, where the governing equations form a coupled system of nonlinear four…

The concept of “doing more and more with less and less until eventually you can do everything with nothing” just so perfectly captures a lot of the pressure I’ve been feeling lately.
