Good idea, perhaps the Commission could put this vision into practice for #EV roaming, so that the #AFIR provisions do not remain a dead letter?

Unpacking Arrow Datasets – Notes from a data witch
A comment on how Datasets work in Apache Arrow. I’m not really sure who the audience for this one. Am I just talking to myself? Probably.

Extremely hot day in the Netherlands again, especially in the South. In over a century of records until 2019, no station in the country had ever reached a temperature of 39°C.
Today was the third time the city of Maastricht saw it happen, and this was by far the earliest in summer for any station.

#Manchester's filthy air.
A long way to go.
"All in all, the measures will get Greater Manchester’s air to 40.3 micrograms of nitrogen dioxide in one cubic metre of air.
"The UK legal limit is officially 40, but results under 40.4 are rounded down, making TfGM’s plan compliant.
"But the World Health Organisation’s recommended limit is just 10."

Clean air zone signs are down, but our pollution 'is like smoking 150 cigarettes a year'. Now what?
The charging clean air zone was cancelled after a spectacular U-turn in 2022 - and led to more arguments and thousands of stickers being slapped on signs. Now there's a new plan, Ethan Davies examines what it involves - and why it's only a start

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Systematic Transient Search of Single Observation Maps
We conduct a systematic search for astrophysical transients using data from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). The data were taken from 2017 to 2022 in three frequency bands spanning 77 GHz to 277 GHz. In this paper we present a pipeline for transient detection using single observation maps where each pixel of a map contains one observation with an integration time of approximately four minutes. We detect 34 transient events at 27 unique locations. All but two of the transients are associat…

GL-LowPopArt: A Nearly Instance-Wise Minimax Estimator for Generalized Low-Rank Trace Regression
We present `GL-LowPopArt`, a novel Catoni-style estimator for generalized low-rank trace regression. Building on `LowPopArt` (Jang et al., 2024), it employs a two-stage approach: nuclear norm regularization followed by matrix Catoni estimation. We establish state-of-the-art estimation error bounds, surpassing existing guarantees (Fan et al., 2019; Kang et al., 2022), and reveal a novel experimental design objective, $\mathrm{GL}(π)$. The key technical challenge is controlling bias from the non…

A Survey of LLM-based Automated Program Repair: Taxonomies, Design Paradigms, and Applications
Large language models (LLMs) are reshaping automated program repair (APR). We categorize the recent 63 LLM-based APR systems published from January 2022 to June 2025 into four paradigms, and show how retrieval- or analysis-augmented contexts strengthen any of them. This taxonomy clarifies key trade-offs: fine-tuning delivers strong task alignment at high training cost; prompting enables rapid deployment but is limited by prompt design and context windows; procedural pipelines offer reproducible…

A 2022 study provides an answer to the chicken and egg problem – should students work on the basics first before adding expression? Or should they aim to play with expression from the start?
