I never posted another "garage door fix" post after this one because we ended up getting a new garage door opener when the old one started failing even more and was beyond repair and also my partner was fed up with my hacks.

5 years later, authorities arrest a suspect in Washington pipe bomb case. Here's what to know
The FBI has arrested a suspect five years after an unidentified person placed two pipe bombs outside the headquarters of the Republican and Democratic national parties in Washington, D.C. The mystery behind the person’s identity has bedeviled law enforcement and helped fuel conspiracy theories about Jan. 6, 2021, and the Capitol riot by a mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters

Horizon-scale variability of M87* from 2017--2021 EHT observations
We report three epochs of polarized images of M87* at 230\,GHz using data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) taken in 2017, 2018, and 2021. The baseline coverage of the 2021 observations is significantly improved through the addition of two new EHT stations: the 12\,m Kitt Peak Telescope and the Northern Extended Millimetre Array (NOEMA). All observations result in images dominated by a bright, asymmetric ring with a persistent diameter of $43.9\pm 0.6\,\muas$, consistent with expectations …

Adversarial Defense in Cybersecurity: A Systematic Review of GANs for Threat Detection and Mitigation
Machine learning-based cybersecurity systems are highly vulnerable to adversarial attacks, while Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) act as both powerful attack enablers and promising defenses. This survey systematically reviews GAN-based adversarial defenses in cybersecurity (2021--August 31, 2025), consolidating recent progress, identifying gaps, and outlining future directions. Using a PRISMA-compliant systematic literature review protocol, we searched five major digital libraries. From 8…

A note on the relation between one--step, outcome regression and IPW--type estimators of parameters with the mixed bias property

A note on the relation between one--step, outcome regression and IPW--type estimators of parameters with the mixed bias property
Bruns-Smith et al. (2025) established an algebraic identity between the one-step estimator and a specific outcome regression-type estimator for a class of parameters that forms a strict subset of the class introduced in Chernozhukov et al. (2022), assuming both nuisance functions are estimated as linear combinations of given features. They conjectured that this identity extends to the broader mixed bias class introduced in Rotnitzky et al. (2021). In this note, we prove their conjecture and fur…

Bi-Lipschitz embedding properties of lamplighter graphs on weighted and unweighted trees
In 2021 Baudier, Motakis, Schlumprecht, and Zsák proved that if a sequence of graphs $(G_k)_{k\in{\mathbb{N}}}$ contains the sequence of complete graphs with uniformly bounded distortion, then the sequence of lamplighter graphs on $G_k$'s contains Hamming cubes with uniformly bounded distortion and asked whether the converse holds. They suggested that a sequence of trees with edges replaced by paths of ``moderately growing'' lengths may be a counterexample. We prove that indeed this is the…
