We have no idea how this #AI cycle is affecting jobs. The numbers are all over the place.
Relatedly, I've found myself regularly explaining the concept of an "AI winter" and that most academics expect that we're coming up on the next one. Nobody is connecting these two concepts because they're both so…

One of the TV or cable networks should totally have the Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake at the ready to play when the time comes.

Swan Lake TV broadcast signals turmoil in Russia as independent media outlets forced to close
Staff at a leading independent Russian TV station resign before airing Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake, in a Soviet-era signal of political turmoil in the country.

Burlington publishes a PDF of both sides of the foldable cycling route map (same one given away at community centres and street events) - it was last updated in 2022.

Mastodon is showing me a "who to follow" widget and I checked out two profiles and they are people who haven't posted in a year or more. (One since 2022!)
Maybe this feature needs a tweak.

Anyone know what happened?

Gestern demonstrierten rund 60 Fahrradfahrer:nnen in #Osnabrück für bessere Radwege. Eine schöne Spazierfahrt die bei 18 Grad etwas kälter als erwartet fand. Da wir als Gruppe als ein Fahrzeug gelten, können wir Kreuzungen und Überwege passieren, sobald die ersten Räder drüber sind. Auch wenn dass dann z.B. wieder Rot wird. Das fühlt sich seltsam an, und macht Laune. Endlich mal Vorfahrt für …

The Supreme Courtsaid on Friday that it will take up its latest gun rights case
and consider striking down a strict regulation on where people can carry firearms in Hawaii.
Trump’s administration had urged the justices to take the case.
The court will consider Hawaii’s law that bans guns on private property,
including businesses like stores and hotels,
unless the owner has specifically allowed them verbally or with a sign.

Supreme Court will consider overturning strict Hawaii gun law
The Supreme Court says it'll take up its latest gun rights case and consider striking down strict regulations on where people can carry firearms in Hawaii. President Donald Trump’s Republican administration had urged the justices to take the case, arguing the law violates the court’s 2022 ruling that found people have a right to carry firearms in public under the Second Amendment. The Hawaii law bans guns on private property unless the owner has specifically allowed them. The law also prohi…

Under-Engineered Responsive Tables
I have written a bunch about responsive tables. Maybe too much. I keep trying to give developers the information they need to make informed decisions — ARIA attributes, screen reader & browser pairing results, bugs, and so on. I have spread things out over years of posts. I have filed…

Flapping dynamics of a compliant membrane in a uniform incoming flow

Flapping dynamics of a compliant membrane in a uniform incoming flow
Recent theoretical and experimental investigations have revealed that flapping compliant membrane wings can significantly enhance propulsive performance (e.g. Tzezana and Breuer, 2019, J. Fluid Mech., 862, 871-888) and energy harvesting efficiency (e.g. Mathai et al., 2022, J. Fluid Mech., 942, R4) compared to rigid foils. Here, we numerically investigate the effects of the stretching coefficient (or aeroelastic number), $K_S$, the flapping frequency, $St_c$, and the pitching amplitude, $θ_0$,…

Evac-Cast: An Interpretable Machine-Learning Framework for Evacuation Forecasts Across Hurricanes and Wildfires
Evacuation is critical for disaster safety, yet agencies lack timely, accurate, and transparent tools for evacuation prediction. This study introduces Evac-Cast, an interpretable machine learning framework that predicts tract-level evacuation rates using over 20 features derived from four dimensions: hazard intensity, community vulnerability, evacuation readiness, and built environment. Using an XGBoost model trained on multi-source, large-scale datasets for two hurricanes (Ian 2022, Milton 202…
