Ab September 2026: Irland führt bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen für Künstler ein | t3n
Seit drei Jahren läuft in Irland ein Pilotprojekt zum bedingungslosen Grundeinkommen für Künstler:innen. Offenbar so erfolgreich, dass das zuständige Ministerium dieses Programm jetzt dauerhaft etablieren will. Profitieren könnten Hunderte Menschen. Als Reaktion auf die Auswirkungen der Corona-Beschränkungen auf die Kunst- und Kulturszene hatte Irland im Jahr 2022 ein Pilotprojekt zum bedingungslosen Grundeinkommen gestartet. Dieses kommt […]

How precisely can we measure the ages of subgiant and giant stars?
Precise stellar ages are fundamental to Galactic archaeology. However, obtaining reliable age estimates and uncertainties for field stars has been a long-standing challenge. We test the fidelity of ages from recent catalogs of giants and subgiants using wide binaries, whose components formed at the same time and thus should have consistent inferred ages. We find that subgiant ages based on spectroscopic metallicities from Xiang & Rix (2022) are generally consistent within their reported uncerta…

I just used Regedit to clean Microsoft's mess and delete 2 unwanted out of 4 input methods from the language applet menu o.O (This is a clean Win11 install from July. The problem seems to be reported as far back as 2022.)
A week ago, I had to uninstall and re-install OneDrive with the \allusers command line argument to make it stop duplicating itself in the sidebar and get back the share option in the context menu per file or folder. (Also a longstanding bug.)

Closing paths to cycles in symmetric graphs
It was shown by Beisegel, Chudnovsky, Gurvich, Milanič, and Servatius in 2022 that every induced $2$-edge path in a vertex-transitive graph closes to an induced cycle. Similar results were obtained for 3-edge paths closing to cycles in edge-transitive graphs, where the cycle can be assumed to be induced if the path is induced. Motivated by these results, we consider the following problem: For a given class of graphs, determine all integers $\ell\geq 0$ such that for every graph in the class, e…

I hold deep contempt for the adult, powerful, wealthy politicians who saw the opportunity to single out four children in the entire state of #Utah and keep them from enjoying their sport.
This is a story that radicalized me, and whenever I'm reminded by the bullies gloating over the pain of literal children, I'm going to share it again.

The Functional Machine Calculus III: Control
The Functional Machine Calculus (Heijltjes 2022) is a new approach to unifying the imperative and functional programming paradigms. It extends the lambda-calculus, preserving the key features of confluent reduction and typed termination, to embed computational effects, evaluation strategies, and control flow operations. The first instalment modelled sequential higher-order computation with global store, input/output, probabilities, and non-determinism, and embedded both the call-by-name and cal…

LST-1 observations of GRB 221009A: Insights into its late-time VHE afterglow
Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) originate from explosions at cosmological distances, generating collimated jets. GRB 221009A, exploded on 9 October 2022, has been established as the brightest GRB to date. Its bright and long emission was extensively followed up from radio to gamma rays. LHAASO firmly detected the onset of the afterglow emission at energies up to $\sim$13 TeV within about an hour after the burst, starting just a few minutes after the trigger. While this VHE emission component can be acc…

Doubly Discordant SH0ES NGC4258 Cepheid Relations (HVI), and Impactful Extinction Laws
S$H_0$ES 2016-2022 $HVI$ data for classical Cepheids in the keystone galaxy NGC4258 yield doubly discordant Wesenheit Leavitt functions:~$ΔW_{0,H-VI} = -0.13\pm0^{m}.02$ ($-0^{m}.17$ unweighted) and that is paired with a previously noted $ΔW_{0,I-VI}\simeq-0^{m}.3$, which in concert with complimentary evidence suggest the 2016 S$H_0$ES NGC4258-anchored $H_0 \pm σ_{H_0}$ warrants scrutiny (i.e., $σ_{H_0}/{H_0}\gtrsim 6$\%). Cepheid distance uncertainties are further exacerbated by extinction…

Correlation function metrology for warm dense matter: Recent developments and practical guidelines
X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) has emerged as a valuable diagnostic for matter under extreme conditions, as it captures the intricate many-body physics of the probed sample. Recent advances, such as the model-free temperature diagnostic of Dornheim et al. [Nat.Commun. 13, 7911 (2022)], have demonstrated how much information can be extracted directly within the imaginary-time formalism. However, since the imaginary-time formalism is a concept often difficult to grasp, we provide here a systemat…

Planar ternary graphs, flag spheres, and Delannoy polynomials
In 2022 Kim showed when a graph $G$ is ternary (without induced cycles of length divisible by three), its independence complex $\text{Ind}(G)$ is either contractible or homotopy equivalent to a sphere. In this paper, we show that when $\text{Ind}(G)$ is homotopy equivalent to a sphere of dimension $\dim \text{Ind}(G)$, the complex is Gorenstein. Equivalently, $G$ is a $1$-well-covered graph. This answers a question by Faridi and Holleben. We then focus on the independence complexes of Gorenst…
