Stumbled across my old NeXT "floptical" disc while looking through old boxes at the office! I've been wondering where this had gone for a few decades now: I have archives of most of my files from 1992 (when we founded Omni) through the present, but this was where I had archived my active files for several of the years prior.
Now to see if any of our NeXT cubes still has a working magneto-optical drive that can read this data…

SFNet: Fusion of Spatial and Frequency-Domain Features for Remote Sensing Image Forgery Detection
The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence is producing fake remote sensing imagery (RSI) that is increasingly difficult to detect, potentially leading to erroneous intelligence, fake news, and even conspiracy theories. Existing forgery detection methods typically rely on single visual features to capture predefined artifacts, such as spatial-domain cues to detect forged objects like roads or buildings in RSI, or frequency-domain features to identify artifacts from up-sampling …

That shithead Palmer Luckey is considering making fully US-made laptops and wants to know if people would spend 20% more for an American made laptop. Sure, Palmer. But not for your racist ass. I'd never give you a cent https…

Palmer Luckey considering entering laptop market with fully US-made model, wants to know if you'd spend 20% more for an American-made PC
It seems Luckey's military technology startup is considering a product slightly different from its current portfolio.

Hey 2D artists (based in Ireland preferred)! JOB ALERT! 📣 Especially those who do cozy cartoony or pixel art.
I have some game dev friends here in Galway from Psychic Software (Just released Necromancer's Tale) that are looking for an artist to team up for their next game.

SuperSONIC: Cloud-Native Infrastructure for ML Inferencing
The increasing computational demand from growing data rates and complex machine learning (ML) algorithms in large-scale scientific experiments has driven the adoption of the Services for Optimized Network Inference on Coprocessors (SONIC) approach. SONIC accelerates ML inference by offloading it to local or remote coprocessors to optimize resource utilization. Leveraging its portability to different types of coprocessors, SONIC enhances data processing and model deployment efficiency for cuttin…

The Impact of Silicate Grain Coagulation on Millimeter Emission from Massive Protostellar Disks
Hot accretion disks around massive protostars provide a unique opportunity to study ice-free silicate grains that cannot be investigated in protoplanetary disks. We conduct a self-consistent investigation into grain-size evolution and its impact on (sub)millimeter-wave emission from massive protostellar disks. Our radiative transfer modeling accounts for dust self-scattering and includes vertical temperature gradients in the disk structure. The results show that once silicate grains grow to siz…

JWST/NIRSpec Observations of Salacia-Actaea and Máni: Exploring Population-level Trends among Water-ice-rich Kuiper Belt Objects
We present observations of the mid-sized Kuiper belt objects (KBOs) Salacia-Actaea and Máni, obtained with the Near-Infrared Spectrograph on JWST. The satellite Actaea was fully blended with Salacia at the spatial resolution of the integral field unit, and we extracted the combined spectrum. The 0.7-5.1 ${\mathrm μ}$m reflectance spectra of Salacia-Actaea and Máni display prominent water-ice absorption bands at 1.5, 2, 3, and 4-5 ${\mathrm μ}$m. The $ν_3$ fundamental vibrational band of ca…

Multi-scale radiative-transfer model of the protoplanetary disc DoAr 44
We aim to construct a comprehensive global multi-scale kinematic equilibrium radiative-transfer model for the pre-transitional disc of DoAr 44 (Haro 1-16, V2062 Oph) in the Ophiuchus star-forming region. This model integrates diverse observational datasets to describe the system, spanning from the accretion region to the outer disc. Our analysis utilises a large set of observational data, including ALMA continuum complex visibilities, VLTI/GRAVITY continuum squared visibilities, closure phase…

HD 143006: Interferometric Confirmation of Misaligned Protoplanetary Disc with CHARA/MIRCX and VLTI/PIONIER
The outer regions of the protoplanetary disc surrounding the T Tauri star HD 143006 show rings, dust asymmetries and shadows. Whilst rings and dust asymmetries can arise from companions and other mechanisms, shadows and misaligned discs in particular are typically attributed to the presence of misaligned planets or stellar-mass companions. To understand the mechanisms that drive these traits, the innermost regions of discs need to be studied. Using CHARA/MIRCX and VLTI/PIONIER, we observed the …
