It's so nice when companies only make small changes to their code of conduct. Google dropped the word "Don't" from their foundational guiding principle.
I guess that makes it easier to make money.

Inferring Obscured Cosmic Black Hole Accretion History from AGN Found by JWST/MIRI CEERS Survey
This study presents the black hole accretion history (BHAH) of obscured active galactic nuclei (AGNs) identified from the JWST CEERS survey by Chien et al. (2024) using mid-infrared (MIR) SED fitting. We compute black hole accretion rates (BHARs) to estimate the black hole accretion density (BHAD), $ρ_{L_{\mathrm{disk}}}$, across $0 < z < 4.25$. MIR luminosity functions (LFs) are also constructed for these sources, modeled with modified Schechter and double power law forms, and corresponding B…

Decay of correlation for edge colorings when $q>3Δ$
We examine various perspectives on the decay of correlation for the uniform distribution over proper $q$-edge colorings of graphs with maximum degree $Δ$. First, we establish the coupling independence property when $q\ge 3Δ$ for general graphs. Together with the work of Chen et al. (2024), this result implies a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for counting the number of proper $q$-edge colorings. Next, we prove the strong spatial mixing property on trees, provided that $…

Paper Of Record delves into how unchecked global warming #climate chaos created catastrophic conditions for deadly #floods in #TX. The #GuadalupeRiver

As the World Warms, Extreme Rain Is Becoming Even More Extreme
Even in places, like Central Texas, with a long history of floods, human-caused warming is creating the conditions for more frequent and severe deluges.

The 2024 #Labour Budget allocated just £11.3 billion to climate change mitigation and adaptation—covering everything from carbon capture* and
nuclear energy* to tree planting and EV charging*—compared to
at least £58 billion for military spending.
NB, those with a * are fake climate mitigation.

Submonoid Membership in n-dimensional lamplighter groups and S-unit equations
We show that Submonoid Membership is decidable in n-dimensional lamplighter groups $(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}) \wr \mathbb{Z}^n$ for any prime $p$ and integer $n$. More generally, we show decidability of Submonoid Membership in semidirect products of the form $\mathcal{Y} \rtimes \mathbb{Z}^n$, where $\mathcal{Y}$ is any finitely presented module over the Laurent polynomial ring $\mathbb{F}_p[X_1^{\pm}, \ldots, X_n^{\pm}]$. Combined with a result of Shafrir (2024), this gives the first example of…

Today in “silly billboards in my community”. The first is by the very “truthful” (/s) people at LNGfacts.ca. Of course, the word "LNGfacts" does not appear anywhere in the dictionary because it's made up nonsense. Just like the "fact" that LNG “makes Canada stronger”... like we're going to win the war in Ukraine with our LNG or fend off #TheAmericanFascist. (Note: LNG is a tool of fascists not the other way around)
This billboard used to say “BC LNG WILL REDUCE GLOBAL EMISSIONS”... with a link to ‘bclnghelps.ca' but that was so clearly a lie that they were forced by the courts to remove it and delete their website, but I made a website instead in their honour called: bclngburns.ca
Back to today's billbboard though... Here's a fact from February 2025: “European LNG imports fell by 19% in 2024 as gas consumption reached an 11-year low, thanks, in part, to renewable energy additions.” (#BCPoli #BCLNG #ClimateAction #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion #LNG #NaturalGas #Europe #EU #Ukraine #Russia
