En commençant cette série de textes, cherchant Š remonter je ne sais quelle origine pour mieux comprendre ce que j’appelle « littérature » ou ce que j’en attends, j’avais une idée préconçue : je pensais que mon appétit de lecture avait originellement Š voir avec la connaissance, le savoir.

On the off chance that the U.S. Government removes it from the web, this is the March 25, 2025 testimony of the U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard that Iran is _not_ currently developing nuclear weapons and it is at least 2 to 3 years from having a bomb ("breakout").

On the right, there is an “economic exploitation” faction whose goal is to get as close to slave labor as they can, and a racist faction whose goal is to be as cruel as possible to immigrants.
Those factions overlap, they align, some people gravitate to both — but they are not identical. They align •only• if the cruelty creates terrible labor conditions — not if the cruelty removes the labor entirely.

Sega is discontinuing support for 9 retro games that were ported to iOS and Android years ago -they've made them all free and removed in-app purchases. I just grabbed Crazy Taxi, Golden Axe Classics, Super Monkey Ball - check out the list here and grab them in the app stores asap before they disappear, there's Streets of Rage and Sonic too, etc:

Download these now free retro mobile games before Sega removes them
Sega is discontinuing nine more retro games on iOS and Android, but you can now download them for free until they’re gone.

Vance Boelter has shown us the true face of the R-party: murderous, violent, gun-addicted, rampaging, and deceptive.
His act of disguising himself as a police officer in order to deceive his victims makes it beyond necessary for police and other law enforcement to have clear, readable, and accurate identity tags, front and back, that can be read at a distance. And such officers must not hide their identity by wearing face covering masks.
It is critical to both know that a law en…

Bounding crystalline torsion from \'etale torsion

Bounding crystalline torsion from étale torsion
In this note, we prove that given a smooth proper family over a $p$-adic ring of integers, one gets a control of its crystalline torsion in terms of its étale torsion, the cohomological degree, and the ramification. Our technical core result is a boundedness result concerning annihilator ideals of $u^{\infty}$-torsion in Breuil--Kisin prismatic cohomology, which might be of independent interest.

Dynamic Layered Decoding Scheduling for LDPC Codes Aided by Check Node Error Probabilities
In this study, a new scheduling strategies for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes under layered belief propagation (LBP) is designed. Based on the criteria of prioritizing the update of check nodes with lower error probabilities, we propose two dynamic scheduling methods: dynamic error belief propagation (Dyn-EBP) and dynamic penalty error belief propagation (Dyn-PEBP). In Dyn-EBP, each check node is restricted from being updated the same number of times, whereas Dyn-PEBP removes this restri…
