Added a zoom level to the Category page on the Exocortex-Log app. Can make the graphs look a lot cleaner now.
Looking back over the last 100 months here, we can see in general my social life is quite seasonal -- Festivals are a lot of social all weekend long and a couple of them in a month really bumps up the hours from my usual habit of sitting alone in a dark room pressing buttons.
The peak in 2019 is a summer filled with Glasto and Noisily and another festival or camping trip I don’t seem to have recorded the name of.
Then clearly visible is the drop-off in social activity as the COVID pandemic hit. Virtual-Social (IE zoom meetings and the like) picked up quite a bit around there but had died back to almost nothing way before the hours spent with actual people started to tick up.
Annoyingly, I have my biggest gap in data right on top of the pandemic there, where I failed to back up for months and then data became corrupted.
When the data-hole is over we see social life still not really returning until the middle of 2021 and not really getting back into stride until summer 2022.
It remains much lower now on average with lower peaks than before the pandemic too. Multiple reasons.
Work is pretty constant all the way though other than the data-hole. Dipping when I take time off for social mostly.
That data-hole is annoying. Back up your data kids.

Quaking in Soft Granular Particles with Speed-dependent Friction: Effect of Inertia
Our previous numerical simulation [C.-E. Tsai et al., Physical Review Research 6, 023065 (2024)] has shown that, for soft granular particles under quasistatic shearing, incorporating a speed-dependent friction is a necessary condition for reproducing the rate-dependent stick-slip fluctuations that have been found in laboratory experiments [J.-C. Tsai et al., Physical Review Letters 126, 128001 (2021)]. As a continuation, here we employ the simulation at a wide range of driving speeds to examine…

Malaysia's AI-Driven Education Landscape: Policies, Applications, and Comparative Insights for a Digital Future
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming education globally, and Malaysia is leveraging this potential through strategic policies to enhance learning and prepare students for a digital future. This article explores Malaysia's AI-driven education landscape, emphasising the National Artificial Intelligence Roadmap 2021-2025 and the Digital Education Policy. Employing a policy-driven analysis, it maps AI applications in pedagogy, curriculum design, administration, and teacher training across p…

Estimates of fractional Hausdorff operators on weighted Lebesgue and Hardy spaces
In this article, we obtain some necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of fractional Hausdorff operators $h_{Φ,β}$ on weighted Lebesgue spaces $(0\leqβ<1)$, which are fractional variants of Bandaliev-Safarova [Hacet. J. Math. Stat., 2021, 50, 1334-1346]; it is found that a new constraint for $β$ should be added and it holds automatically for non-fractional variants in [HJMS, 2021] $(β=0)$. Then, we further obatin the boundedness of fractional Hausdorff operators $h_{Φ,β}…

Hybrid Physics-ML Framework for Pan-Arctic Permafrost Infrastructure Risk at Record 2.9-Million Observation Scale
Arctic warming threatens over 100 billion in permafrost-dependent infrastructure across Northern territories, yet existing risk assessment frameworks lack spatiotemporal validation, uncertainty quantification, and operational decision-support capabilities. We present a hybrid physics-machine learning framework integrating 2.9 million observations from 171,605 locations (2005-2021) combining permafrost fraction data with climate reanalysis.

VBS hat für einen Typenentscheid F-35 vorgespurt und den Bundesrat entmachtet: Es gab ein Gutachten, das das VBS im Juni 2021 ausgerechnet vor der Bundesratsdebatte über den Typenentscheid beim Bundesamt für Justiz in Auftrag gegeben hatte. Das Gutachten hielt fest, dass der Bundesrat verpflichtet sei, sich für den Sieger der Evaluation zu entscheiden – sofern es bei Preis und Fähigkeiten keine weitgehende Gleichwertigkeit gebe. Genauso hat Amherd dann argumentiert.

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…
