Vikings to sign former first-round pick
Continuing to reshape their front seven, the Vikings have a deal in place with Jerry Tillery.  The former first-round defensive tackle is set to join Minnesota on a one-year deal worth up to $3.25M, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Tillery had an underwhelming start to his career with the Chargers, despite seeing a full-time starting role in 2020 and 2021.  The 27-year-old saw his workload cut the following season, and he was ultimately waived midway through the 2022 campaign. He closed …

“Unlike the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, those who do not vote or refrain from voting do not threaten violence. Nor do they obstruct the functioning of a governmental institution.
Yet through their inaction, they too impair the political freedom of America that arises from the democratic character of its government and thus violate their elemental duty of citizenship.
We vote to preserve democracy and thus our own freedom.”

Professor Owen M. Fiss on the Importance of Voting
In Why We Vote, Sterling Professor Emeritus of Law Owen M. Fiss stresses the importance of voting and examines Supreme Court cases that sought to enlarge the freedom that democracy generates, emphasizing that it's the Court's responsibility to uphold the democratic ideal of the Constitution.

The Congressional Budget Office estimates that: "The manufacturing sector was responsible for 12% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2021. **About 75% of those emissions came from burning fuel to create heat**, and the rest were by-products of industrial processes that transform materials into products."
Note: Most low to moderate temperature heat demands could be satisfied with heat pumps rather than burning fuel.

Emissions of Greenhouse Gases in the Manufacturing Sector

Bowers, 21, was a three-year starter at Georgia and won the John Mackey Award for being the best tight end in college football in 2022 and 2023. He was a Unanimous All-American in 2023, first-team All-American honors in 2022, and second-team All-American in 2021. He also earned first-team All-SEC for all three years of his college career. The Raiders used the No. 13 pick in the 2024 draft …

Trump makes Jan. 6 attack a cornerstone of White House bid
Donald Trump is making the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol a cornerstone of his bid to return to the White House. Trump opened his first rally as the presumed Republican Party presidential nominee standing in salute with a recorded chorus of Jan. 6 prisoners singing the national anthem. It's not just rewriting the violent siege of the Capitol and the effort to overturn the 2020 election. It's an attempt to normalize their behavior — and his — as the indicted Trump faces charges stemming…

Selon les données les plus récentes, il y a environ 5000 autobus urbains dans la province sur près de 7 millions de véhicules enregistrés. Ils s'agit donc de 0,07 % de tous les véhicules sur les routes.
La part des déplacements effectués en auto solo a aussi augmenté dans les dernières années. Elle est passée de 68,5 % en 2017 Š 73,7 % en 2021.

13 G$ pour électrifier le transport collectif : Québec fait fausse route, dit une experte
L’électrification des autobus urbains souhaitée par le gouvernement du Québec coûtera très cher. En additionnant les montants prévus par les principales sociétés de transport collectif de la province, la facture s’élève à environ 13,1 milliards de dollars dans les dix prochaines années. Des investissements importants qui ne permettront pas de maximiser les bienfaits environnementaux et l'amélioration du service, selon une experte.

It’s more than likely that we won’t pick it up.” The San Francisco 49ers originally selected Lance with the No. 3 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft out of North Dakota State. Lance suited u…

Platforms for Efficient and Incentive-Aware Collaboration
Collaboration is crucial for reaching collective goals. However, its effectiveness is often undermined by the strategic behavior of individual agents -- a fact that is captured by a high Price of Stability (PoS) in recent literature [Blum et al., 2021]. Implicit in the traditional PoS analysis is the assumption that agents have full knowledge of how their tasks relate to one another. We offer a new perspective on bringing about efficient collaboration among strategic agents using information de…

An Exploratory Analysis of COVID Bot vs Human Disinformation Dissemination stemming from the Disinformation Dozen on Telegram
The COVID-19 pandemic of 2021 led to a worldwide health crisis that was accompanied by an infodemic. A group of 12 social media personalities, dubbed the ``Disinformation Dozen", were identified as key in spreading disinformation regarding the COVID-19 virus, treatments, and vaccines. This study focuses on the spread of disinformation propagated by this group on Telegram, a mobile messaging and social media platform.

Improved bounds on the interactive capacity via error pattern analysis
Any interactive protocol between a pair of parties can be reliably simulated in the presence of noise with a multiplicative overhead on the number of rounds (Schulman 1996). The reciprocal of the best (least) overhead is called the interactive capacity of the noisy channel. In this work, we present lower bounds on the interactive capacity of the binary erasure channel. Our lower bound improves the best known bound due to Ben-Yishai et al. 2021 by roughly a factor of 1.75. The improvement is d…
