I even fixed my Pixel 6a back in December. Unfortunately, I broke the new screen a few weeks ago.
I'm glad I upgraded to my Pixel 9a when I did. I love GrapheneOS and have been using it since early May 2023 with my 6a.

Aus irgendeinem Grund ist gerade die Sonos-Radio-Station "The Lighthouse", über die Brian Eno jede Menge unveröffentlichte Tracks abspielen läßt, gratis (man braucht halt ein Sonos-Gerät dazu), und ich höre mich da nun etwas durch.
DJ Food hat das ein paar Monate lang gemacht übrigens, und mitgeschrieben (Stand 2023):

Brian Eno – The Lighthouse, what’s on it?
I’ve been compiling this, off and on, all year, while listening to the 340+ unreleased tracks on Brian Eno‘s Sonos HD radio station, The Lighthouse. If I had the phone nearby I’d check what’s playing, make a note of the track number and year and write a short description. I was intrigued to see how often tracks repeated (not very often), how long it would take me to hear all of them (over 6 months) and what the ratio of good to average to bad was. It became quite addictive as I’d fill…

Why Academics Are Leaving Twitter for Bluesky
We analyse the migration of 300,000 academic users from Twitter/X to Bluesky between 2023 and early 2025, combining rich bibliometric data, longitudinal social-media activity, and a novel cross-platform identity-matching pipeline. We show that 18% of scholars in our sample transitioned, with transition rates varying sharply by discipline, political expression, and Twitter engagement but not by traditional academic metrics. Using time-varying Cox models and a matched-pairs design, we isolate gen…

Full Stokes magnetometry of the active M dwarfs AU Mic and EV Lac with SPIRou
We report in this paper circularly and linearly polarized observations of the young active M dwarfs AU Mic and EV Lac with the near-infrared SPIRou spectropolarimeter at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, collected from August to October 2023 over a few rotation cycles of both stars. Applying Least-Squares Deconvolution (LSD) to our spectra, we detected Zeeman signatures in circular (Stokes V) and linear (Stokes QU) polarization, and Zeeman broadening in unpolarized (Stokes I) LSD profiles, al…

Near-Optimal Nonconvex-Strongly-Convex Bilevel Optimization with Fully First-Order Oracles
In this work, we consider bilevel optimization when the lower-level problem is strongly convex. Recent works show that with a Hessian-vector product (HVP) oracle, one can provably find an $ε$-stationary point within ${\mathcal{O}}(ε^{-2})$ oracle calls. However, the HVP oracle may be inaccessible or expensive in practice. Kwon et al. (ICML 2023) addressed this issue by proposing a first-order method that can achieve the same goal at a slower rate of $\tilde{\mathcal{O}}(ε^{-3})$. In this pap…

OOOHH!!!! 🚨
Just got an email from the BC Government! My FOI request that I submitted almost exactly two years ago in 2023 has finally completed!
Looks like there is ALOT of redacted/partial disclosures
I'm going to keep a lid on what this is all about other than to say, it's about trains and climate change! lol (which is convenient, given my earlier post this morning)
Time for some light reading!

Cluster analysis of earthquake hypocenters in Azerbaijan and surrounding territories
The research focuses on seismic events that occurred in Azerbaijan and adjacent territories, regions known for strong seismic activity. We analyze a catalog of recorded earthquakes between 2010 and 2023, extracting the locations of the earthquake hypocenters for study purposes. Using statistical methods and cluster analysis tools, we developed a procedure for partitioning hypocenter clusters. The procedure begins with estimates of the Morisita Index, which is suitable for preliminary assessment…

Outgroup Animosity Has Risen for Politicians, Journalists, and a Sample of Partisan Users on Twitter and Reddit
Using language models, we analyze a sample of 67 million tweets and 30 million Reddit comments referencing a set of 215 political entities from 2010-2023 from partisan users, journalists, and politicians. Our analysis indicates outgroup animosity has increased consistently in our sample, with newer cohorts of users expressing higher levels of animosity than previous ones. Moreover, a small fraction of users are responsible for a disproportionate share of this negative content. We observe system…

Lite förenklat tror jag att jag kan påstå att matavfall bidrar till Sveriges energimix med 0,2% 2023.
Total energitillförsel 2023: 507 TWh
- Varav biobränslen: 149,6 TWh
Total biogasanvändning: 4,1 TWh
- Varav matavfall 24%, dvs 1 TWh
Har jag missat något här? Eller räknat uppåt väggarna? #energipolitik

Ball path curvature and in-game free throw shooting proficiency in the National Basketball Association
Basketball shooting coaches agree that smoother shooting motions are better, but there is less agreement about what "smooth" means quantitatively or what part of the shooting motion needs to be smooth. Using ball tracking data from the 2023-2024 National Basketball Association regular season, we explore the relationship between ball path curvature and free throw shooting performance. We fit Bézier curves to the ball tracking data in the sagittal plane and test different methods of calculating …
