Convergence of discrete conformal mappings on surfaces
Discrete conformal mappings based on circle packing, vertex scaling, and related structures has had significant activity since Thurston proposed circle packing as a way to approximate conformal maps in the 1980s. The first convergence result of Rodin-Sullivan (1987) proved that circle packing maps do indeed converge to conformal maps to the disk. Recent results have shown convergence of maps of other discrete conformal structures to conformal maps as well. We give a general theorem of convergen…

CompLeak: Deep Learning Model Compression Exacerbates Privacy Leakage
Model compression is crucial for minimizing memory storage and accelerating inference in deep learning (DL) models, including recent foundation models like large language models (LLMs). Users can access different compressed model versions according to their resources and budget. However, while existing compression operations primarily focus on optimizing the trade-off between resource efficiency and model performance, the privacy risks introduced by compression remain overlooked and insufficien…

I believe this is the first coverage to acknowledge that Lurie’s budget seems to treat a “temporary” new jail as permanent
“representatives from the People’s Budget Coalition lined the second and third floor balconies of City Hall’s rotunda. They held yellow posters reading ‘No new jail! No cuts!’ referring to the continued funding for the jail annex in San Bruno.”

Protesters unfurled banners in the San Francisco City Hall rotunda reading "Stop cuts" that were quickly taken down by sheriff's deputies.

Overall, 77% of Americans said they did not feel “completely financially secure,”
and 32% said they did not think they ever would.
Based on the latest census data, the median U.S. household income in 2023 was roughly $80,000,
but that is the midpoint on incomes, meaning half of U.S. households made even less.

This is how much Americans need to make in order to ‘feel comfortable,’ according to a survey
A new survey revealed how much money Americans need to make to feel "secure."
