Just listened to an interesting online talk (#Balloon Facility (https://www.tifr.res.in/bf/) - here are the slides about astronomical observations they do; see also https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.04877 for a 2021 review paper about this work and the mentioned papers https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2013/08/aa21614-13/aa21614-13.html ("Large-scale mapping of the massive star-forming region RCW38 in the [CII] and PAH emission") and https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2021/07/aa35739-19/aa35739-19.html ("[CII] emission properties of the massive star-forming region RCW 36 in a filamentary molecular cloud").

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…

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…

En 2018, un verdict belge semblait enfin mettre fin Š une affaire vieille de 20 ans.
En 2025, certaines indemnisations sont toujours en suspens.
Pendant ce temps, en France, l’enquête OKC/Spatz — rouverte officiellement en 2021 — n’a toujours pas abouti.
Cela interroge :

Pressure dependent structure of neat liquid methanol, CH3OH: molecular dynamics simulations with various united atom type potentials
Molecular dynamics computer simulations have been conducted on neat liquid methanol, using three different united atom (three site) interatomic potentials: TraPPE [J. Phys. Chem. B 105, 3093 (2001)], UAM-I [J. Mol. Liq. 323, 114576 (2021)] and OPLS/2016 [J. Chem. Phys. 145, 034508 (2016)]. The effects of pressure, between 1 bar and 6 kbar, have been evaluated on total scattering structure factors, partial radial distribution functions, as well as on collective characteristics such as ring size …

The real reason they are fighting, aside from obviously gaining huge media attention… is the huge media attention.
Once the insanity stops, they will have the cull, then take the eggs that they have from the flock and grow new birds plus get birds from elsewhere that also came from their flock.
It’s not rocket science, these people are just using the publicity to further their financial prospects. More Culture War grifters.
The screenshots are from the wayback machine, 2021 before they took down their website, for obvious reasons.
