Meet Alexius Chipalamwazani - 2023 Emerging NREN Programme (ENP) Participant!
At #TNC23, Alexius joined the ENP—a programme built to equip and empower emerging NREN representatives with the skills, knowledge, and community ties that will drive innovation back home.
In this interview, Alexius reflects on his ENP experience, how it shaped his growth, and the impact it’s had on Malawi’s NRE…

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

This week's #ThursDeath is a recent find I've been listening a lot to this week, Belgium's DISCARNATION have re-released their 2023 demo as 'Mournful Incantations of Mortality'. This is a fantastic piece of gloomy, death-doom that's super growly and cavernous, just how I like it-- much like this year's Cave, Ovenhead or Annihilation Cult. Definitely one to try out, for fans o…

Da Team Zastrow hier so sozial tut, möchte ich noch einmal daran erinnern, dass im Entwurf der Rechten die Stabilität der Kitagebühren mit massiven Kürzungen bei der DVB, der Jugend- & Kindersozialarbeit und weiteren Buchungstricks erkauft werden sollte.
P.S.: Wer bei denen kommentieren kann, darf dies gerne tun. Ich wurde leider blockiert.

From this year on, ESWC will be under the umbrella of SWSA, the Semantic Web Science Association, to secure financial sustainability for the upcoming years after its previous supporting organisation STI was dissolved in 2023. Basics about the transition are given by Elena Simperl, president of SWSA.

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.

Asteroseismology of the G8 subgiant beta Aquilae with SONG-Tenerife, SONG-Australia and TESS
We present radial velocities of the G8 subgiant star beta Aql obtained in 2022 and 2023 using SONG-Tenerife and SONG-Australia. We also analysed a sector of TESS photometry that overlapped with the 2022 SONG data. We processed the time series to assign weights and to remove bad data points. The power spectrum clearly shows solar-like oscillations centred at 430 muHz. The TESS data show the oscillations at lower signal-to-noise because photometric measurements are much more affected by the granu…

The origin of the coherent radio flash potentially associated with GRB 201006A
Rowlinson et al. 2023 recently claimed the detection of a coherent radio flash 76.6 minutes after a short gamma-ray burst. They proposed that the radio emission may be associated with a long-lived neutron star engine. We show through theoretical and observational arguments that the coherent radio emission, if real and indeed associated with GRB 201006A and at the estimated redshift, is unlikely to be due to the collapse of the neutron star, ruling out a blitzar-like mechanism. Instead, we show …

A Decidable Bundled Fragment of First-Order Modal Logic Without Finite Model Property

A Decidable Bundled Fragment of First-Order Modal Logic Without Finite Model Property
The satisfiability problem for First-order Modal Logic (\FOML) is undecidable even for simple fragments like having only unary predicates, two variables etc. Recently a new way to identify decidable fragments of \FOML has been introduced called the "bundled fragments", where the quantifiers and modalities are restricted to appear together. Since there are many ways to bundle the quantifiers together, some of them lead to (un)decidable fragments. In (Liu et.al, 2023) the authors prove a `trichot…

A $q$-analogue of Gosper's strange evaluation of the hypergeometric series
In 1977, Gosper conjectured many strange evaluations of hypergeometric series. One of them is a ${}_{2}F_{1}$-series identity with two free parameters, which was proved by Ebisu (2013), Chu (2017), and Campbell (2023) in different ways. In this paper, we present a $q$-analogue of the ${}_{2}F_{1}$-series identity, along with its generalization, by using three-term relations for the ${}_{2}ϕ_{1}$ basic hypergeometric series.

Torsion pairs in categories of modules on ringed finite sites
Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a small category. In this paper, we mainly study the category of modules $\mathfrak{M}\mbox{od-}\mathfrak{R}$ on ringed sites $(\mathbf{C},\mathfrak{R})$. We firstly reprove the Theorem A of the paper (M. Wu and F. Xu. Skew category algebras and modules on ringed finite sites. J. A. 631, 2023), then we characterize $\mathfrak{M}\mbox{od-}\mathfrak{R}$ in terms of the torsion modules on $Gr(\mathfrak{R})$, where $Gr(\mathfrak{R})$ is the linear Grothendieck construction of $…

Deploying IPv6-Mostly Access Networks
Dual stack is the most common way of deploying IPv6 in access networks. A recent standard defines IPv6-mostly access networks, providing IPv4 connectivity only for legacy devices while allowing modern devices to run IPv6-only. It is already well supported and allows network operators to gradually p…
