OSINT or BULLSHINT? Exploring Open-Source Intelligence tweets about the Russo-Ukrainian War
This paper examines the role of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) on Twitter regarding the Russo-Ukrainian war, distinguishing between genuine OSINT and deceptive misinformation efforts, termed "BULLSHINT." Utilizing a dataset spanning from January 2022 to July 2023, we analyze nearly 2 million tweets from approximately 1,040 users involved in discussing real-time military engagements, strategic analyses, and misinformation related to the conflict. Using sentiment analysis, partisanship detectio…

FBI: Play ransomware gang has attacked 600 organizations since 2023 https://therecord.media/play-ransomware-gang-fbi-update-900-attacks

Reposting this for a colleague of mine from Edinburgh, who I know pretty well - he hosted me for 3 days in 2023 and I was impressed with him and his group. (They even took me for a walk over Arthur's Seat to a pub dinner.) 22-year-old me took an opportunity like this to study in Edinburgh and I think it worked out well.

Subtle Drama #NowPlaying

2024: in der EU soll besser vor Vergewaltigung geschützt und #JaHeißtJa als Standard gesetzt werden. Aber die #FDP in der Bundesregierung blockiert und Deutschland geht zusammen mit Frankreich dagegen.

Richtlinie zu Gewalt gegen Frauen: Warum Deutschland kein EU-Gesetz gegen Vergewaltigung will
Es begann als ambitioniertes Vorhaben der EU-Kommission gegen sexualisierte Gewalt. Bei den heutigen Trilog-Verhandlungen droht jedoch ein Debakel. Ausgerechnet Deutschland blockiert eine europaweite Regelung gegen Vergewaltigung. Und der Rat möchte den besseren Schutz vor bildbasierter Gewalt und Deepfakes verwässern.

Rewriting the Ruby parser
At Shopify, we have spent the last year writing a new Ruby parser, which we’ve called YARP (Yet Another Ruby Parser). As of the date of this post, YARP can parse a semantically equivalent syntax tree to Ruby 3.3 on every Ruby file in Shopify’s main codebase, GitHub’s main codebase, CRuby, and the 100 most popular gems downloaded from rubygems.org. We recently got approval to merge this work into CRuby, and are very excited to share our work with the community. This post will take you thro…

Weak Fan Structures for Two-Parameter Degenerations of K3 Surfaces
In this note, we provide an explicit computation of the weak fan associated with a two-parameter degeneration of K3 surfaces. This example serves as a concrete illustration of the general framework developed by Robles and Deng (2023) for the compactification of period maps via nilpotent orbits in the non-Hermitian case. We describe the associated nilpotent cones, examine their compatibility conditions, and construct the weak fan governing the degeneration behavior. This computation contributes …

A complete synaptic map of the brain connectome of the larva of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Nodes are neurons, and edges are synaptic connections, traced individually from brain image sections using three-dimensional electron microscopy–based reconstruction. Node metadata include the neuron hempisphere, hemispherical homologue, cell type, annotations, and inferred cluster. Edge metadata include the type of interaction (`'aa'`,…

Beyond the Clouds: Advanced Data Analysis of a Dutch Sky Quality Meter Network
Light pollution is an increasing environmental concern, impacting both ecological systems and human health. This report presents an analysis of light pollution data from the \textit{Was het donker} SQM network from 2020 until 2023, with a focus on indirect light pollution, commonly known as skyglow. By integrating measurements from Sky Quality Meter (SQM) stations in the network and cloud cover data from EUMETSAT, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of night sky brightness across a region enc…
