Merz: Bedrohung durch Russland ist real
Bei einem Besuch der Marine hat Kanzler Friedrich Merz (CDU) die Arbeit der Bundeswehr in Nord- und Ostsee gelobt. Die Bundeswehr erfülle im nordatlantischen Raum einen wichtigen Auftrag, sagte Merz. Die Landes- und Bündnisverteidigung sei seit Beginn des Angriffskrieges von Russland auf die Ukraine im Februar 2022 notwendiger geworden.

Remember back in 2022, when people all across the Fediverse lost their absolute minds at the idea of someone building a search index of public posts, and took down several reasonable attempts at it?
I wonder how many of those people are storming the offices of MS, OpenAI, Grok, etc. about all the copyright infringing hoovering they're doing.
Oh, none? Thought so. So much easier to beat up on the solo developer trying to be useful.

Pushing Blocks without Fixed Blocks via Checkable Gizmos: Push-1 is PSPACE-Complete
We prove PSPACE-completeness of Push-1: given a rectangular grid of 1 x 1 cells, each possibly occupied by a movable block, can a robot move from a specified location to another, given the ability to push up to one block at a time? In particular, we remove the need for fixed (unmovable) blocks in a previous result (FUN 2022), which seems to require a completely different reduction. This fundamental model of block pushing, introduced in 1999, abstracts the mechanics of many video games. It was s…

Bemerkenswerte schlechte Umfrageergebnisse für die Regierung.
Auch für Merz: 30% sind mit seiner Arbeit zufrieden, 59% sehen Merz kritisch (laut Insa). Mit dem damaligen Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz waren nach 100 Tagen im Amt im März 2022 43% der Befragten zufrieden, nur 41% unzufrieden.

Research on Quality Measurement and Dynamic Transmission of Higher Education in China from the Perspective of Dual Circulation: An Empirical Analysis Based on Entropy Weight-TOPSIS and PVAR Models
Drawing on the new pattern of 'dual circulation', an evaluation system for the development level of China's higher education has been constructed, utilizing data from Chinese provinces over the period 2020 to 2022. Initially, the evaluation model is established, followed by the screening of initial indicators through correlation analysis. Subsequently, an entropy weight-TOPSIS model are employed for static quantification, and the PVAR model is introduced for the first time to describe the dynam…

Treedepth and 2-treedepth in graphs with no long induced paths

Treedepth and 2-treedepth in graphs with no long induced paths
Huynh, Joret, Micek, Seweryn, and Wollan (Combinatorica, 2022) introduced a graph parameter, later referred to as 2-treedepth and denoted $\mathrm{td}_2(\cdot)$. The parameter is the natural 2-connected version of treedepth. For every graph, 2-treedepth is at most the treedepth but can be much smaller: long paths have arbitrary treedepth but 2-treedepth equal to 2. We prove a converse, showing that every graph $G$ with no induced path on $t$ vertices has treedepth less than $2 \cdot t^{\mathrm{…

Geometry Matters in Planar Storyplans
A storyplan visualizes a graph $G=(V,E)$ as a sequence of $\ell$ frames $Γ_1, \dots, Γ_\ell$, each of which is a drawing of the induced subgraph $G[V_i]$ of a vertex subset $V_i \subseteq V$. Moreover, each vertex $v \in V$ is contained in a single consecutive sequence of frames $Γ_i, \dots, Γ_j$, all vertices and edges contained in consecutive frames are drawn identically, and the union of all frames is a drawing of $G$. In GD 2022, the concept of planar storyplans was introduced, in which…

CONCERTO: forward modeling of interferograms for calibration
The CarbON [CII] line in post-rEionisation and ReionisaTiOn epoch (CONCERTO) instrument is a low-resolution mapping Fourier-transform spectrometer, based on lumped-element kinetic inductance detector (LEKID) technology, operating at 130- 310 GHz. It was installed on the 12-meter APEX telescope in Chile in April 2021 and operated until December 2022. CONCERTO's main science goal is to constrain the [CII] line fluctuations at high redshift. To reach that goal CONCERTO observed 1.4 deg2 in the COS…
