Democratic officials criticize Meta ad policy, saying it amplifies lies about 2020 election
Several Democrats serving as their state’s top election officials have sent a letter to the parent company of Facebook, asking it to stop allowing ads that claim the 2020 presidential election was stolen. In the letter addressed to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, the secretaries said allowing such ads will further erode trust in elections and fuel threats of political violence against election workers. On Friday, Meta defended its work around elections and said it would remove election-related cont…

While suicides, homicides, cars have significant impacts on the disparity, diseases of poverty play a role as well: " Native American children died from pneumonia and the flu at three times the rate of white children, for example, and Black children died from asthma at almost eight times the rate of white children."
It's shameful

The Magic Number Conjecture for the $m=2$ amplituhedron and Parke-Taylor identities
The amplituhedron $\mathcal{A}_{n,k,m}$ is a geometric object introduced in the context of scattering amplitudes in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang Mills. It generalizes the positive Grassmannian (when $n=k+m$), cyclic polytopes (when $k=1$), and the bounded complex of the cyclic hyperplane arrangement (when $m=1$). Of substantial interest are the tilings of the amplituhedron, which are analogous to triangulations of a polytope. Karp, Williams and Zhang (2020) observed that the known tilings of $\ma…

An iterative method for the solution of Laplace-like equations in high and very high space dimensions
This paper deals with the equation $-Δu+μu=f$ on high-dimensional spaces $\mathbb{R}^m$, where the right-hand side $f(x)=F(Tx)$ is composed of a separable function $F$ with an integrable Fourier transform on a space of a dimension $n>m$ and a linear mapping given by a matrix $T$ of full rank and $μ\geq 0$ is a constant. For example, the right-hand side can explicitly depend on differences $x_i-x_j$ of components of $x$. Following our publication [Numer. Math. (2020) 146:219--238], we show th…

While the FBI might get away with accessing an encrypted device without a separate warrant, anyone else who accessed it — as Garrett Ziegler keeps confessing he did — may have committed a CFAA violation.
Curiously, though, the FBI did get separate warrants for all the other devices backed up separately.
That’s what the July 10, 2020 warrant did: permit the FBI to access four device backups that we…

with right-wing figures across the country invoking violence and urging their supporters to arm themselves.
